The PIP8isahighlyintegrated robustindustrialPCwithaspeciallydesigned high qualityaluminum
housing.Thisallowsthe systemtooperatewithoutfan orventilation holes.The design integratesstandard
connectorsforeasyconnection.It can be used foranyPCapplication whereacompletesolution isneeded.
The PIP8can be used inastandardorinarugged operating environment, is100% PC/ATcompatibleand
can easilybe mountedon a35mm DINrail.
The PIP8housing offersspacefora2.5inchharddiskand aslim-linefloppydiskdrive.Withthe integrated
PC/104 interfaceflexibleexpansion possibilitiesareavailable.FullybootableFLASHdisksaresupported for
projectswhereharddisksorfloppydiskscannotbe used.Particularprecautionshavebeen taken thatthe
