Rugged 3U OpenVPX single-board computer for demanding embedded computing introduced by Abaco

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Abaco Systems in Huntsville, Ala., is introducing the SBC329 rugged 3U OpenVPX single board computer as a drop-in replacement for existing users of Abaco's mission ready embedded computing systems for demanding applications to be deployed in harsh constrained environments.

The SBC329 offers a 10 percent performance improvement over its predecessors. It is based on the latest 7th generation Intel Core technology (codenamed "Kaby Lake").

The SBC329 is available in two variants that are pin-compatible with previous versions. For applications prioritizing throughput and performance, the SBC329 is configurable with the Intel Xeon E3-1505M V6 processor operating at 3 GHz. For applications prioritizing minimal power consumption and heat dissipation, the Intel Xeon E3-1505L operating at 2.2 GHz is available.

The SBC329 provides advanced security capabilities such as anti-tamper and information assurance, including an inherently secure field-programmable gate array (FPGA), and support for Intel's Trusted Execution Technology.
