Concurrent Technologies Plc Product Launch Conduction-cooled rugged computer board
Concurrent Technologies Plc (the "Company"), a world leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer products, announces the launch of its latest single board computer, the TP 402/351-RC, specially designed for use in rugged environments.
This 3U CompactPCI‚® board uses the latest dual-core processors from Intel‚® and is conduction-cooled for use in very harsh operating environments. As such, it is well suited for applications within the defence, aerospace, security, transportation, industrial-control and telemetry sectors. In addition, this product is available as a ruggedized air-cooled version as well as in an extended temperature range version. The product is also capable of operating at high altitudes and can sustain very high shock and vibration levels.
Part of the Company's strategy has been to design and produce these types of rugged computer products. The launch of this board is the first product resulting from this strategy and as such, it clearly demonstrates that the Company has the skills and expertise to design and produce extremely sophisticated products using the latest processing technology.
Glen Fawcett, Managing Director, commented:
"Designing and manufacturing computer products for use in extremely demanding applications is a highly specialised field and one in which we now clearly have wide ranging skills. A principle management aim is to capture the widest possible audience for our products. The type of technological innovation that has been applied in this product demonstrates that our aims are being fulfilled."

Notes to Editors:
Concurrent Technologies Plc develops and manufactures high-end embedded computer products for use in the telecommunications, defence, security, telemetry, scientific and aerospace markets. Using the latest Intel‚® Core¢â€ž¢ dual core processors, the single board computers support high performance applications, some being capable of operating in temperatures from -40‚ºC to +85‚ºC for applications within harsher environments. Concurrent Technologies produces a wide range of boards designed according to industry standard specifications including CompactPCI‚®, VME boards, AdvancedMC¢â€ž¢, PCI Mezzanine Cards and Multibus II.
The TP 402/351-RC uses the 1.5 GHz Intel‚® Core¢â€ž¢ 2 Duo processor with the Intel‚® 3100 server chipset and supports an XMC module in a single slot. It can operate in a system slot, peripheral slot or as a blade. The board operates at altitudes of -1000 to +50,000 feet (-305 to +15,240 metres) over -40‚°C to +85‚°C (no airflow) and the ruggedized version enables it to operate to a shock of 40g (11ms, half-sine), sine vibration 5g (5Hz-2KHz) and random vibration, 0.1g‚²/Hz (10Hz-1KHz) and 6dB/octave from 1KHz to 2KHz.
