Why Advantech
Initially during the project bidding stage, a number
of tier-one server suppliers proposed a similar solution to the customer—a systems
integrator for military simulation equipment. Because simulation training
equipment comprises many expensive hardware and software components, conducting
a feasibility evaluation in the early development stages was essential. The
more comprehensive the evaluation, the easier it was for the customer to make a
decision.
In this case, the Advantech system had already been
verified with not only Windows 7 and 10, but also several Linux-based OS, such
as Redhat, SUSE, CentOS, and Ubuntu, which is ready-to-use for simulation
applications. Also involved in the initial project evaluation was a product
application engineer, who helped to clarify any issues related to system integration.
During the product development stage, the ASMB-813 motherboard underwent 24-hour testing under full-load at operating temperatures of -5 ~ 65 °C (23 ~ 149 °F). A series of environmental tests to ensure IEC 60068-2 compliance were also conducted. Compatible with ATX and micro-ATX motherboards and featuring four hot-swappable drive trays, ACP-4010 is one of Advantech’s most popular rackmount chassis products. The chassis’ LED indicators provide alarm notifications in the event of a system error. All components are carefully selected to ensure a long product lifecycle and Advantech offers a 7-year longevity commitment.
