Embedded computer is 'pocket-sized'

Quanmax is releasing the QBox-1000, a pocket-sized fanless embedded computer with an overall height of only 40mm. The QBox-1000 is based on ultra-low-power Intel Atom N270 processor at 1.6GHz with DDR2 system memory of up to 2GB. With the Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950, the QBox-1000 offers vivid images and smooth HD video playback. Its power-efficient design requires only 20W, making the QBox-1000 suitable for low-power embedded applications requiring high-end graphics and space-saving packages - such as entry-level gaming, commercial outdoor broadcasting and POS/POI terminals.

The QBox-1000 is equipped with rich I/O interfaces including one Gigabit Ethernet port, four USB 2.0 ports, an audio connector, an eSATA connector and a DVI-I connector for CRT and DVI output. Storage is provided by a 2.5inch SATA hard drive bay or Compactflash. Advanced network connectivity is also available with the optional Wi-Fi module. The rugged, fanless aluminium case provides not only passive cooling but excellent heat dissipation for quiet operation. Additionally, the cable-less design of the QBox-1000 enhances the system stability and makes it easy for maintenance in harsh environments.

This compact embedded platform can be wall-mount or VESA-mount to simply turn a monitor into a computer.
