[ 媒体评测 ] DS-1302. A very compact high performance expandable and modular rugged embedded computer

A very compact high performance expandable and modular rugged embedded computer with dual PCI/PCIe expansion slots

— by Rugged PC Review

In this report we're looking at another specialized type of computer from Cincoze, a Taiwan designer and manufacturer of Panel PCs as well as application-driven embedded rugged systems. The Cincoze DS-1302 is part of a line of very compact fanless industrial computers that provide not only exceptionally rich wired I/O, but also access to industry-standard PCI and PCIe-based expansion that usually requires much larger packages.

Cincoze calls their DS-1302 a high-performance expandable and modular rugged embedded computer and points at the system's wealth of modular customization options as a differentiating strategic advantage over competing products. The DS-1302 can be equipped with a range of socket-type Intel Xeon or Core CPUs for use in numerous high-end computing deployments. Its two PCI/PCIe expansion slots allow interfacing with all kinds of application-specific add-on cards. The machine is built to last in demanding environments, with rugged features including wide operating temperature and DC power input range, shock and vibration tolerance, and adherence to stringent ruggedness military and industrial standards.


Uses of high-performance fanless embedded PCs

Like the generic general purpose desktop computer, industrial embedded computer systems have an essentially limitless number of applications. Like standard desktop PCs, their BIOS and system boards are configurable in numerous ways. Unlike standard PCs, embedded computers are built to operate within wider temperature ranges and to be able to handle shock, vibration and numerous industry-specific hazards. Embedded systems generally don't require fans, using passive cooling instead. The Cincoze DS-1300 Series represents an advanced state-of-the-art implementation of a modern embedded system, one that supports a wider range of I/O and expansion than most in a package still compact enough to fit almost anywhere. Here are three examples of target markets for this sort of machine:

 
  • Industrial automation — With the advent of Industry 4.0, smart factories are self-contained, utilizing automated production processes and inter-machine communication to enhance enterprise strategies and decision-making. Reliable high-performance industrial embedded computers, in addition to visual data acquisition, processing and analysis, play a vital role in optimizing production capacity and improving market competitiveness.

  • Rolling stock — Rail transportation — including commuter rail, rapid transit, subways and light rail — requires continuous software and hardware upgrades to keep pace with increased security monitoring and passenger services needs. Advanced technology helps improve system safety, stability, and decision-making efficiency. Advanced technology also benefits road transportation as integration of sensors, GPS and real-time wireless transmission improves traffic monitoring, service, efficiency, and safety.

  • Warehousing and logistics — Smart warehouses rely on sensors, RFID, network communication, GPS and automated logistics equipment for automatic capture, identification, early warning, and management of incoming and outgoing data. These smart systems reduce storage costs, optimize efficiency, and enhance management capabilities. Embedded computers are the brain of smart equipment, providing computation, control, and decision-making in smart storage solutions.
