Product Introduction
General Introduction
The Cortex vX-series supports3rd Gen Intel® Core™
series processor (6M Cache, up to 3.30 GHz), DDR3L
and DDR3 maximum dual channel 16GB ram, 3
independent display (DP, DVI-D, and VGA), isolated DIO,
maximum 9 GbE LANs, CFast, two 2.5” SATA 6Gp/s HDD/
SSD trays, 4 COM, 4 USB 3.0 ports, JST connector, and 2
mini PCI-express. Additionally, overvoltage protection,
watchdog timer, and a Trusted Platform Module
further expand the functionality of the Cortex
Embedded Computer.
The Cortex is powered by a cutting-edge 3rd Gen Intel®
Quad-Core™i7 Processor (6M Cache, up to 3.3 GHz). Ivy
Bridge increases power efficiency by as much as 25%
and also integrates Intel's® HD 4000 graphics.An
extremely low thermal design power of 35W ensures
enhanced reliability, safety and shock resistance for
fanless operating environments.
With up to 9 GbE LANs, The Cortex vX-series provides
stable and speedy Ethernet at 9.6 kb/s to 1 Gb/s data
transmission speeds while also supporting Ethernet
Control Automation Technology (EtherCAT).
