Industrial PCs gain GSM/GPRS, WiFi
Jul. 16, 2007

SSV has added optional WiFi and GSM/GPRS networking to a small industrial PC targeting M2M (machine-to-machine) applications. The Com/PC is available with a Pentium M or Geode processor, runs Windows XP Embedded, and targets remote maintenance, tank field monitoring, telemetry, and POS/vending machine applications.

SSV's Com/PC line includes two models:
  • Com/PC1-1100, based on a Pentium M processor clocked at 1.1GHz
  • Com/PC1-800, based on an AMD Geode LX800 clocked at 533MHz
Both offer 10 serial ports (COM1-COM10), four USB ports, both 10/100 Mbps and 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports, dual mini-PCI slots, and a pair of "multi-I/O" expansion slots supporting several available modem modules and fieldbus cards, the company said.

SSV's Com/PCs run Windows XP Embedded from an internal CompactFlash card. The units can also be supplied with Linux, SSV said. Alternatively, with an added 2.5-inch hard drive, the Com/PC can run Windows XP Professional.

The Com/PC appears to be available now with WiFi and various ISDN/GSM/GPRS modem modules optionally available. Pricing was not disclosed.
