Maximum system performance for complex automation and visualization tasks
State-of-the-art PC technology (e.g. Intel Core i processors 6th 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 C236 chipset, DDR4 memory with the support of dual-channel technology)
High data transfer rates (e.g. with serial ATA solid-state drive up to 480 GB, serial ATA hard disks up to 2 TB, Dual Gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express 3.0 technology)
Reduction in downtimes through high system availability
24-hour operation (high MTBF, variable-speed fan)
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" drive bays 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 industrial tower PC
Intel Hybrid multi-monitor support for connecting up to 5 monitors in combination with optional PCIe x16 graphics card
High degree of flexibility and expandability thanks to integrated interfaces and 7 slots (P CI and PCI Express)
High industrial compatibility and compactness for 24-hour use in an industrial environment
Distinct product design with user-friendly enclosure concept
