TC-6110 Series Hardware Introduction
1-2
Overview
TC-6110 train computers are specifically designed for auxiliary train applications such as network video
recorders, passenger infotainment systems, condition monitoring, and train-to-ground communications. They
come with two Gigabit LAN ports, one RS-232 serial port, three USB 2.0 ports, and two TC-SATA-T storage
modules, giving customers a versatile solution for on-board train computing.
Providing a high reliability and durable platform for train operation, TC-6110 computers come with M12
connectors for Gigabit LAN ports, USB 2.0 ports, and the dual power inputs. In addition, the expansion modules
offer high flexibility for system integration. Users can easily add storage modules for additional data storage
capacity, Gigabit switch module to expand connectivity and/or bandwidth, or mini PCIe module for additional
peripheral communications. All TC-6110 series computers further come with conformal coating, promising the
most reliable operation for component protection under harsh environment.
