Global computer hardware manufacturer Logic Supply has unveiled their CL200 Ultra Small Form Factor computer, built to power innovation at the network’s edge. Surrounded by an ultra-durable cast aluminum enclosure, and configurable with WiFi, Bluetooth and 4G connectivity, the CL200 has been engineered to bring reliability to the Internet of Things.
“IoT and Edge projects require flexibility, connectivity and dependability,” said Logic Supply Director of Engineering Michael Kleiner. “The CL200 is our smallest fanless system ever, and represents the next-gen of IoT computing by combining connection flexibility and efficient performance in an affordable, highly-reliable platform.”
Both models in the CL200 series are powered by an efficient Intel Apollo Lake Celeron processor and measure a mere 83x116x34 mm. The base model CL200, running on Linux Ubuntu 16.04, features 1GB of RAM and 8GB of onboard storage. The CL210 steps up to 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, and can be configured with Ubuntu or Windows 10 IoT. A built-in MicroSD card slot on both models enables additional removable storage.
I/O on the CL200 includes one mini DisplayPort capable of 1080p or 4K resolution, one Gigabit LAN port, and two USB 3.0. The CL210 features two mini DisplayPorts capable of dual 1080p or single 4K resolution, dual Gigabit LAN, two USB 3.0, and also adds a 3.5mm audio jack. Both systems have an additional USB 2.0 port and RS-232 box header on the bottom, and are configurable with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and Logic Supply’s Extrovert 4G LTE capability.
The CL200 will make its debut at this year’s Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas, NV, which begins on March 28th. The system’s compact footprint, versatile connectivity and optional Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) make it ideal for a range of digital signage and kiosk applications.
“We’ve been working with Logic Supply for the last few years on a range of projects that require highly reliable computer hardware,” said Kevin Romano, Executive Vice President and founder, Christie Experiential Network.
“In our industry, reliability is paramount. Every moment of downtime potentially represents significant revenue loss. Employing Logic Supply hardware lets us focus exclusively on creating immersive and engaging OOH solutions for our clients and their content.”
