This compact, low-power, low-cost, advanced communication computer is based
on a 133 Mhz 486 class processor. It has three 10/100 Mbit ethernet ports, up to
64 Mbyte SDRAM main memory and uses a CompactFlash module for program and data
storage. It can be expanded using a MiniPCI type III board and a low-power
standard PCI board.
It has been optimized for use as a Firewall and VPN Router, but has the
flexibility to take on a whole range of different functions as a communication
appliance. The board is designed for long life and low power.
It is available in any volume in the standard version, and as board only
or complete system inclusive a small metal box and wall mount power transformer.
The board can be customized according to requirements when ordering higher
volume.
