Concurrent Technologies Plc, a leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer products, launched its latest 6U CompactPCI single board computer, the PP 402/04x. This dual core processor uses the latest Intel technology, allowing for improved performance/Watt especially for low power processing applications within the telecoms and defence markets.

The board’s enhanced processing capabilities and wide range of input/output interfaces make it ideally suited to power sensitive, high performance applications within Concurrent’s target sectors. By continuing to bring forward products that can provide high performance even in harsher conditions, the company is remaining focused on serving clients’ needs; sales for the product are expected from within the company’s existing customer base as well as attracting new users.

“It is becoming increasingly important to provide high performance boards which can operate on low power, while still delivering the capabilities and processing intensity that our customers expect,” said Glen Fawcett, Managing Director.
“As with our other products, the  environmentally enhanced products are a strong draw, as are the Intel(R)dual core processors and wide range of available interfaces.”

“In the coming months we will be developing and launching further embedded
boards within the 6U range, as well as moving into our next phase of 3U products, in order to develop inroads into new customers.”
Concurrent Technologies Plc develops and manufactures high-end embedded computer products for use in the telecommunications, defence, security, telemetry, scientific and aerospace markets. Using the latest Intel Core dual core processors, the single board computers support high performance applications, some being capable of operating in temperatures from -40ºC to +85ºC for applications within harsher environments.

Concurrent produces a wide range of boards designed according to industry standard specifications including CompactPCI, VME boards, AdvancedMC, PCI Mezzanine Cards and Multibus II.
The PP 402/04x supports the 1.5 GHz and 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processors, 4 Ethernet interfaces and has a wide range of front and rear I/O connections. The board also supports many of the leading operating systems such as Linux, Windows XP Embedded, LynxOS, QNX and VxWorks.
