Dual-Display Signage System Enriches I/O, Network Connectivity

VIA’s ARTiGO A1300 is a robust ultra-compact fanless quad core system with rich connectivity and networking features designed for a range of dual-display signage, kiosk, menu board, HMI, and other IoT applications. Fanless operation combined with rigorous reliability testing ensures reliability for the most demanding conditions in space-constrained environments. Leveraging the 1.0 GHz VIA QuadCore E-Series and VIA VX11PH media system processors to provide rich multimedia capabilities for creating visual effects for single- and dual-screen signage displays, the system can play two 1080p videos or four 720p videos at the same time, while supporting DX11 graphics resolutions of up to 1920 x 1080 pixels through its two HDMI ports. Other I/O ports include USB 3.0 (x2), Gigabit Ethernet, line-in/out audio, 12 Vdc-in power, USB 2.0 (x2), COM for RS232/422/485, and Digital I/O for 8-bit GPIO. On board I/O connectors include mSATA, SATA, SIM card and Mini-PCIe. The system includes support for WOL and PXE, and offers 802.11b/g/n USB and 3.75G HSP/UMTS mini-PCIe mobile broadband module options.
