Ibase\u2019s fanless, Linux-ready \u201cIPPC1x05-RE\u201d industrial panel PCs are available in 15-, 17-, and 19-inch sizes with 6th Gen Core EQ\/E CPUs, IP65 front-side protection, dual SATA bays, 2x GbE, and 2x PCIe.<\/p>\n
Ibase\u2019s 15-inch (IPPC1505-RE), 17-inch (IPPC1705-RE), and 19-inch (IPPC1905-RE) industrial touch-panel PCs are designed for factory automation, machine automation and other harsh indoor applications. The IP65-protected IPPC1x05-RE systems, which follow earlier IPPC branded panel PCs<\/a> with Bay Trail and older Core models, are higher-end siblings to the company\u2019s recent OFP series<\/a>. While the OFP models include 15- and 21-inchers based on an Apollo Lake Pentium N4200 and a 21-inch OFP-2101-PC with a dual-core 7th Gen, \u201cKaby Lake\u201d Core-U, the new IPPC models offer a choice of Intel 6th Gen \u201cSkylake\u201d chips.<\/p>\n IPPC1505-RE, front and back<\/b> <\/p>\n The IPPC1x05-RE panel PCs give you a choice of running Windows 7\/10 or Linux Kernel 3+ on the quad-core, 2.0GHz\/2.8GH Core i7-6822EQ, quad-core 1.9GHz\/2.7GHz Core i5-6442EQ, or dual-core, 1.9GHz Core i3-6102E, all with 25W TDPs. The announcement says there\u2019s an option for 7th Gen chips, but no details were supplied on the product pages.<\/p>\n The specs are identical among the three systems except for their screens, which all provide USB-based one-point resistive touch, with 79 percent light transmission and 50,000 hours backlight lifetime:<\/p>\n The IPPC1x05-RE systems ship with 4GB to 32GB RAM (type undisclosed). For storage, you get dual 2.5-inch SATA bays, one of which is populated as a default with a 64GB SSD.<\/p>\n IPPC1905-RE, front and back<\/b> <\/p>\n Dual GbE ports provide EtherCAT master support, and there\u2019s optional \u201cwireless,\u201d presumably via one several expansion slots. The system provides dual full-size PCIe x8 slots, as well as a full-size mini-PCIe slot with mSATA support. There\u2019s also a storage focused M.2 M-key socket.<\/p>\n The IPPC panel PCs provide 6x USB 3.0 ports, as well as a front-facing USB 2.0 port located at the front bezel. You also get external RS232\/422\/485 and RS232 ports, and optional 4-in\/4-out DIO. To hook up additional displays, the panel PCs provide HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort, and DVI-D ports. Three audio jacks are also available.<\/p>\n The 442 x 377 x 132.8 IPPC systems provide a 12 to 24VDC input via a 3-pin terminal block. The front panel offers IPC65 protection against water and dust, and there\u2019s a 0 to 50\u00b0C (SSD) or a 0 to 40\u00b0C (HDD) operating range. The systems are available with VESA 75 x75 or 100\u00d7100 mounting options and Ibase\u2019s iSMART green technology with EuP\/Erp power saving, auto power on\/off scheduler, and power resume functions.<\/p>\n Further information<\/b><\/p>\n No pricing or availability information was provided for the IPPC panel PCs.
