Concurrent Technologies Plc Product Launch Concurrent's latest mass storage module

Concurrent Technologies Plc ("Concurrent"), a world leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer products, announces the launch of a new 3U CompactPCI‚® mass storage module and an optional expansion board.

This is a key product launch for Concurrent as this mass storage module can be used by customers with their existing systems, providing extended capabilities with the one controller board. Having a high-specification module compatible with a number of Concurrent's Intel‚® processor-based embedded boards will be attractive to both existing and new customers looking for straightforward enhancement of their systems' storage.

The TP MS1/x11 SATA300 controller board accommodates two 2.5 inch SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) 300 mass storage drives and a CompactFlashTM site. A further two drives can be incorporated by adding the TP MS1/100 expansion board.

This product enables the integration of SATA 300 mass storage drives into a 3U CompactPCI‚® system, where performance, functionality, power, space and cost are key elements. It is available in commercial, extended temperature and ruggedised air-cooled versions and can be used in conjunction with appropriate host computers such as Concurrent's latest Intel‚® dual-core and Intel‚® Pentium‚® M processor based 3U CompactPCI‚® boards.

Glen Fawcett, Managing Director, Concurrent Technologies, commented:

"This new product offers high reliability disk storage in a scalable solution. It is ideally suited to a variety of applications particularly within the defence, industrial control, telecoms, telemetry, scientific and aerospace markets, where performance is vital. Having this storage module work in conjunction with our existing products allows customers to easily improve their systems and functionality, to meet high operational demands. With this launch we are continuing our goals of delivering products which meet our target customers' needs and that help drive new sales in our global markets."
