Advantech, a leading global ePlatform service provider, is pleased to introduce a series of stylish, compact, yet smart and rugged 
desktop/wallmount chassis designed for full-sized Single Board Computers (SBC) and MicroATX motherboards—IPC-6025 for SBCs & MicroATX chassis IPC-5122. Featuring a brand new Industrial Design (ID), this series of desktop/wallmount chassis is designed to perform reliably in any application and in harsh environments—not just pure industrial environments.
Smart New Industrial Design
IPC-6025& IPC-5122 come with a newer fresher look - on top of the original rugged-style. Their sleek silver finishes are suited to more than just industrial environments, such as the back offices of a bank or chain store. Tough black plastic and other materials are also integrated into IPC-6025 and IPC-5122, while the main structure retains a heavy-duty steel construction to maintain ruggedness. Furthermore, due to the rising demand for more efficient use of space, the market for compact IPCs is growing, and the layout within each chassis is highly optimized to minimize overall size and provide better space utilization.
Environmental Protection
With an increasing variety of applications and end user types, good practical design features are important, and these are carefully implemented into IPC-6025 and IPC-5122. In most application environments dust is a common element, so the front door designs on IPC-6025 and IPC-5122 provide protection from dust for the front I/O USB ports, CD ROM and HDD. Also, a washable easy-to-maintain filter between the system fan and front grill allows for easy cleaning and maintenance, and IPC-6025 has a convenient handle designed on the front to make it easy to remove the chassis from the application environment.
Smart LED Alarm System>
IPC-5122 and IPC-6025 also come with an intelligent monitoring system. With this system, users can monitor system power, CPU cooler fan status, system temperature and hard disk activity status. The system will sound an alarm if it detects abnormal activities.
Special Applications
IPC-6025 5-slot SBC chassis can work as a wallmount or desktop chassis and is suitable for applications which require a standalone system. And, with Advantech’s specially designed rack carrier, IPC-6025 can work as a quad-system. Applications requiring quad-systems include AOI systems which need multiple processing for different functions and flexibility. With Advantech’s rack carrier, IPC-6025 offers an excellent and economic solution to this kind of application.
Both Advantech IPC-6025 & IPC-5122 chassis provide a more stylish, compact and modern looking case while retaining their rugged industrial features; they make ideal solutions for a wider range of applications in more than just industrial environments. Please contact your local Advantech representatives for more information.
