1. Introduction
The V2406A series embedded computers are based on the Intel 3rd-generation processor and feature four
RS-232/422/485 serial ports, dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, audio in/out, three USB 2.0 hosts, two CFast sockets,
and one SATA storage socket. In addition, the V2406A computers have dual DVI-I outputs, and are compliant
with a portion of EN 50155 covering operating temperature, power input voltage, power surge, ESD, and
vibration, making them particularly well-suited for railway applications.
The dual Gigabit Ethernet ports with M12 X-coded connectors offer a reliable solution for network redundancy,
promising continuous operation for data communication and management. As an added convenience, the
V2406A computers have six DIs and two DOs for connecting digital input/output devices, and the CFast feature
provides the reliability needed for industrial applications that require data buffering and storage expansion.
Pre-installed with Windows Embedded Standard 7 or Debian 7 (available for custom orders only), the V2406A
computers provide programmers with a friendly environment for developing sophisticated, error-free
application software at a low cost. Wide temperature models of the V2406A that operate reliably in a -40 to
70°C operating temperature range are also available, offering an optimal solution for applications subjected to
harsh environments.
