Introduction
Project Introduction

A company in Europe needs some powerful computers as servers for stream handling and GIS (Geographic Information System), and as network video servers for data recording. Since the computers will be used on military vehicles, they must be both powerful and rugged.


System Requirements
.x86-based high performance computer
.Rugged mechanical design
.Extended and external power switch that can be used outside the cabinet
.Hard disk drive for video data storage
.Various interfaces for different device connections, such as LAN port, serial port, VGA port, and USB hosts

Moxa Solution
Moxa’s MC-4510-C23 computers are based on the Intel Core 2 Duo processor, and can perform several tasks as both video servers and network video recorders. In this application, one MC-4510-C23 computer is placed in a cabinet, and works as the server for video stream handling and GIS (Geographical Information System). In addition, the computer is required to display the location of the cameras and the environment. Another MC-4510-C23 computer will be placed in the same cabinet, and work as a network video recorder to connect two IP cameras. A separate MC-4510-C23 computer is housed in another cabinet near the operator’s station, and work as a client with two VGA monitors connected.
 
As main control units for the video server, NVR, and video client, the MC-4510-C23 computers are powerful enough to handle 6 channels at a time. They are also embedded with two SATA-II connectors and support two hard disks for large capacity requirement for video recording storage and playback.
 
Of particular importance is the computer’s extended, external power switch, which allows users to power the computer on and off without opening the cabinet. This is especially convenient and can save a lot of effort with respect to system operation.
 
The MC-4510-C23 computers come with various interfaces, including LAN ports, serial ports, VGA ports, and USB hosts, offering an ideal solution for setting up a system-type application.
 
Since the MC-4510-C23 will be used on military vehicles, the computers are designed at an industrial-grade level and can endure harsh, military environments. The rugged design of the computer guarantees system reliability and stability, and can meet customer’s demands and requirements.
