Flexible installation alternatives make Afolux easy to use

September 2006 Industrial Computer Hardware

Afolux is an all-in-one panel PC that provides performance that is better than commercial PCs with an aesthetically-pleasing and streamlined appearance, and industrial-grade durability.

The Afolux is only available in 17" (432 mm) but there is a choice between resistive touch and normal TFT LCD with 16,2 M colours, 1280 x 1024 resolution, and 160° horizontal and vertical viewing angle.

Afolux supports Single Socket 479 up to 400 MHz FSB with Pentium M and Celeron M up to 2,1 GHz. Dual Gigabit LAN is standard, while Wireless LAN module kits are optional. The front panel is IP64 rated (water approved), and it also boasts features like front volume control and expansion options like PCI, PCMCIA Card Bus, 2,5" (63,5 mm) ATA-HDD, one slim type CD-ROM, Compact Flash socket and two built-in speakers.

The Afolux supports VESA mounting standards and the Afolux is UL60601-1/EN60601-1, CE and FCC Class B medical certified and yet it is similarly priced compared to normal panel PCs.

I/O ports available are:

* Two x USB 2.0.

* Two x PS/2 for keyboard and mouse.

* One x DVI.

* One x DB-15 for VGA.

* Two x RS232, 1 x RS232/422/485.

* Two x RJ-45 for 10/100/1000BASE-T LAN Ports.

* One x Audio (MIC, LINE-IN, SPK-OUT).
