Press Release: all-metal fitlet-RM (ruggedized)

Official CompuLab Press Release: 2016-06-28

Yokneam, Israel 28-Jun-2016 – Compulab is introducing fitlet-RM – a ruggedized miniature fanless PC in an an all-metal housing. fitlet-RM provides excellent durability at extreme temperatures and conditions of shock, vibration and dust. In many independent benchmarks fitlet-RM achieves higher scores than PCs based on Intel® Atom™. It effectively doubles the performance of the original fitlet-i by incorporating the quad-core AMD A10 Micro-6700T APU in an all-metal housing designed to maximize heat-dissipation in the smallest possible footprint.

fitlet-RM is built to last

The miniature 0.22 liter housing of fitlet-RM is all metal with interlocking parts for structural strength. fitlet-RM has no moving parts thanks to passive cooling and SSD storage. The embedded-grade motherboard and passive-cooling allow fitlet-RM to operate at an unusually wide temperature range of -40C to 70C. Ventless design and no internal airflow make fitlet-RM an extremely reliable computer in dusty, corrosive or humid environments. These properties also make fitlet-RM an excellent choice for sterilized rooms. fitlet-RM comes with a 5 year warranty.

fitlet-RM is tiny, versatile and scalable

“In PC design, miniaturization and thermal management too often come at the expense of functionality, modularity and serviceability.” Said Irad Stavi, Chief Product Officer at Compulab. fitlet-RM stands out with extremely rich functionality that can be further extended by custom FACET card modules. fitlet-RM is surprisingly easy to open for RAM, storage and extension-cards installation.
fitlet-RM offers high scalability from deeply embedded applications integrating just the miniature single-board-computer SBC-FLT up to the more powerful fitlet-H and fitlet-T that share the same architecture of fitlet-RM and provide more performance, memory and storage capacity.

Better system integration with ready mounting, power handling and cable locking

fitlet-RM addresses real-world system integration challenges to improve overall solution quality and reduce design cost and time to market. Both Windows and Linux are supported on fitlet-RM. It has both VESA and DIN-rail mounting, power and USB locking, power button disable and remote power button, RS232, SMBUS and GPIOs. Small size, passive cooling and tolerance for a wide temperature range simplify integration. fitlet-RM is 10V-15V tolerant and can be easily integrated in automotive. fitlet-RM is available as a turn-key OEM product with build-to-order, branding and SW imaging service.
