Inside the embedded box PC Tank-871 from ICP Germany is an Intel Core i5 or i7 processor with Intel Q170 chipset and a maximum of 64 GB DDR4 RAM. On the outside, the computer is equipped with a variety of interfaces - including six COM ports, four USB 2.0/3.0 and four 8-bit digital interfaces as well as two RJ-45 LAN GbE ports. According to the manufacturer, two 2.5-inch SATA 6Gb/s SSD slots offer sufficient storage capacity for installing software applications and for data backup. The integrated RAID Modi 0 and I are designed to ensure a high write speed or redundancy of the data records. An mSATA slot and two Mini PCIe card slots are also available for customer-specific expansions. The control processes are visualized via up to three independent displays. A VGA interface, an HDMI+DP combo and an internal display port (iDP) are available for this purpose. The latter can be used flexibly, as the iDP connection can be converted to an LVDS, HDMI, VGA, DVI or DP connection using a converter board.
