February 21, 2012, Irvine, California –Advantech, a global leader in the embedded computing market, is happy to announce the ARK-1120, an ultra-compact and price-competitive fanless embedded system powered by an Intel® Atom™ N455 processor. Its compact size, affordable price, robust performance and support for both HDD and CompactFlash memory make the ARK-1120 attractive for a range of embedded usages. This product is well-suited for applications that need a simple but dependable controller. ARK-1120 is ideal for thin client and factory automation applications with space limited or low-power-consumption designs.
Ultra Slim, Easy Implementation
Even before its release, clients are lining up to take advantage of what the ARK-1120 has to offer. A Hong Kong customer will be using ARK-1120s in their new hotel signage application as easy-maintenance, fanless display systems. Across the Pacific in the U.S., the ARK-1120 will be rolling into duty as the central processor in a medical care cart, where its compact size and low power consumption make it ideal. The resulting extended duty between battery recharges is a definite advantage for these nursing carts.
Built-in Smart Remote Management Tools – SUSIAccess
Advantech SUSIAccess provides a smart, easy, remote management API so users can monitor, configure, and control a large number of terminals and centralize maintenance. Advantech SUSIAccess also supports FTP offsite back-up of complete system and files at any time, along with full system and file restore if the system should ever fail to boot up or crash. ARK-1120 is quite compact, and makes an ideal client terminal. ARK-1120 paired with Advantech SUSIAccess makes the whole system more reliable and more intelligent.
