1.1 Introduction
AAEON introduces the slimmest product in the Boxer series,
AEC-6402, which utilizes the Intel®Atom™N2600 processor: this
embedded controller expands its graphics performance greatly with
the newest generation of Atom™processors.
So far, there is no other boxer PC can be so tiny and slim like
AEC-6402, not even Pico-ITX system. With this tiny dimension form
factor, customers can fit it almost everywhere, and it provides quite
a lot of I/O ports for basic applications. AEC-6402 adopts fanless
design for high reliability to fit in most rugged environment. It also
provides wireless communication features and it’s really convenient
for customers to build up network connection at all locations and
markets.
The AEC-6402 is a standalone high performance controller
designed for long-life operation and with high reliability. It can
replace traditional methods and become the mainstream controller
for diversified markets.
