Arbor Solution has added an ultra-small boxed chassis system to its lineup of transportation box PCs. Designed for a wide range of applications, the new IEC-3300 is based on the Intel Atom processor E3800 series (formerly code-named ‘Bay Trail’) and an Intel Celeron dual-core processor N2807 or a quad-core processor J1900. Carrying both FCC and CE certification, the system may be safely and confidently used right out of the box. “Using the latest Intel ‘Bay Trail’ technology, combined with our compact and robust chassis design, the IEC-3300 is high performance, yet still maintains a small, fanless form factor,” stated Brian Yurkiw, Arbor Solution vice president. “Its varied I/O choices combined with an extended operating temperature range easily makes it a jack-of-all-trades.
