Maximum system performance for complex automation and visualization tasks
State-of-the-art PC technology (e.g. Intel Core i processors 4th generation with Turbo Boost 2.0, hyper-threading and virtualization technology)
Memory and graphics controller integrated into processor for extraordinary memory and graphics performance
Maximum performance (e.g. Intel Q87 chipset, DDR3 1600 memory with support of dual channel technology)
High data transfer rates (e.g. with serial ATA solid-state drives up to 240 GB, serial ATA hard disks up to 1 TB, dual Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express 3.0 technology)
Reduction in downtimes through high system availability
Efficient self-diagnostics (front status LEDs for fan and temperature, SIMATIC IPC DiagMonitor)
High degree of data security due to RAID1 (mirror disk system) or RAID5 (striping with parity), also with additional hot spare hard disk
"Hot swap" removable drive bay in RAID configuration (replacement of hard disk during operation)
Fast identification and replacement of the hard disk in the event of a fault by means of HDD alarm LEDs for RAID configurations
Solid-state drive option in conjunction with RAID1 (data in the RAID1 network on hard disks, preinstalled and activated operating system on solid-state drive)
Redundant power supply with "hot swap" functionality (replacement of power supply module during operation)
High flexibility and user friendliness during commissioning, operation and service
Preinstalled and activated operating system
IAMT (Intel Active Management Technology) functionality for remote access to the IPC (remote maintenance)
Fast restoration of the delivery status of the hard disk(s) thanks to restore DVD
Low noise output thanks to controlled fans
Universal implementation as an industrial workstation or server
RAID1/RAID5 onboard (a PCI slot is not occupied by the RAID Controller)
Flexible applications in many different positions with telescopic rails or as tower industrial PC
High degree of flexibility and expandability thanks to integrated interfaces and 7 slots (PCI and PCI-Express)
High industrial compatibility and compactness for 24-hour use in an industrial environment
Maximum processor performance (in maximum configuration) without loss of power (throttling) at ambient temperatures of up to 40 °C
Distinct product design with dirt-resistant surfaces
Metal enclosure with a high degree of electromagnetic compatibility for use in industrial areas and in domestic, business and commercial environments
Suitable for installing in space-saving control cabinets only 400 mm deep
Dust protection thanks to overpressure ventilation concept with fan on the front and dust filter
Special hard disk holders and card retainers for protection against vibration and shock
Cost reductions through high investment security
Availability of at least 1.5 years, guaranteed availability of spare parts for 3 years
System-tested with SIMATIC components
Certification for worldwide marketing (cULus)
Support for legacy interfaces (PS/2, COM, LPT)
Installation compatible for many device generations
