ARBOR Technology, a leading provider of rugged embedded computing solutions, announces the launch of the ARTS-1550 Series, a rugged fanless in-vehicle box PC powered by latest Intel® Amston Lake x7433RE processor. Designed for transportation, mobile surveillance, and edge AI applications, the ARTS-1550 Series delivers high-performance computing with enhanced I/O connectivity and real-time data transmission, ideal for smart transportation, fleet management, intelligent video analytics, and public safety systems.
Engineered for mission-critical operations on the move, the ARTS-1550 Series boasts a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 70°C and a robust fanless aluminum enclosure, ensuring reliable performance under harsh conditions, including shock, vibration, dust, and fluctuating power scenarios. Fully compliant with E-Mark regulations and MIL-STD-810H, this compact box PC is purpose-built for public transit, fleet management, law enforcement, and railway applications.
Built for High-Speed Connectivity & Edge Intelligence
At the heart of the ARTS-1550 is the Intel® Atom® x7433RE processor, part of the Amston Lake family, optimized for edge computing with low power consumption and integrated Intel® Time Coordinated Computing (TCC) support. The platform supports DDR5 memory up to 16GB, enabling improved bandwidth for data-intensive operations such as real-time video analytics or AI inference at the edge.
One of the most compelling features of the ARTS-1550 is its 4 x 2.5GbE PoE+ ports, delivered via RJ45 or M12 x-coded connectors, with a total 60W power budget. These ports provide both high-speed data transfer and power delivery for connected IP cameras or sensors, simplifying installation and reducing cabling complexity in vehicles and mobile systems.
Versatile I/O and Wireless Expansion
To meet diverse communication and control requirements, the ARTS-1550 includes:
- 2 x isolated CAN 2.0 (A/B) for vehicle communication networks
- Isolated 4 x Digital Input / 4 x Digital Output (2KV protection) for external device integration
- 2 x serial COM ports, supporting legacy connectivity in industrial and transportation environments
For wireless and storage flexibility, the system offers a rich expansion interface:
- 1 x M.2 B-Key (USB3.0 + USB2.0) with SIM slot for 4G/5G/LTE Modules. Optional dual SIM support in single 5G module, offering redundancy to ensure reliable, always-on connectivity for mission-critical applications such as fleet tracking and remote monitoring
- 1 x M.2 B-Key (SATA + USB2.0) for storage or GNSS positioning module
- 1 x full-size mini-PCIe (PCIe x1 + USB2.0) with SIM slot for Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/LTE connectivity
Additionally, the ARTS-1550 provides an externally accessible 2.5" HDD tray and SD card slot, making data handling and system updates more efficient without opening the chassis.
Dual Display and Security
For user interaction or visual monitoring, the ARTS-1550 supports dual display output via HDMI, offering flexible deployment options for in-vehicle HMI or surveillance screens.
Security is another priority, this rugged box PC supports discrete TPM 2.0 (dTPM) for hardware-based security, as well as compatibility with Windows® 11, ensuring a secure and modern software platform for system integrators.
