Axiomtek’s latest rugged box computer runs Linux on a quad-core Intel Atom E3845 with 8GB of DDR3L, and supports dual displays and extended temperatures.

The fanless eBOX620-841-FL follows a long line of Linux-ready Axiomtek eBOX computers, including last year’s eBOX660-872-FL, which supported 3rd Generation Intel Core processors. This time around, Axiomtek takes the latest, 22nm Intel Atom E3845 SoC out for a spin, bringing with it four 1.91GHz processor cores and a 10W TDP.

The 7.87 x 4.72 x 2.2-inch eBOX620-841-FL features an IP40-rated, aluminum cold-rolled steel enclosure that protects against vibration of up to 3 Grms when using only CFast solid-state storage, says Axiomtek. The device supports -20 to 60°C temperature operation, and offers over-voltage protection (OVP), over-current protection (OCP, and short-circuit protection (SCP), says the company. Applications are said to include digital signage, transportation, POS, kiosks, industrial control automation, and medical equipment.
