1.1 Introduction

Due to the growing popularity from the IPC market, the newest

Boxer series AEC-6876 has been introduced by AAEON.

New Innovation for Entertainment Multimedia Domain

In this era of i

nformation explosion, the advertising of consumer

products will not be confined to the family television, but will also

spread to high-traffic public areas, like department stores, the bus,

transportation station, the supermarket etc. The advertising

marketing industry will resort to every conceivable means to

transmit product information to consumers. System integrators

will need a multifunction device to satisfy commercial needs for

such public advertising.

Being a control center, the AEC-6876 is suitable for public

multimedia entertainment services. Equipped with a high efficiency

heat conduction mechanism.

The AEC-6876 is compact in size but has attractive and flexible

extension capabilities such as 4 USB2.0 ports, VGA, Audio, 4 COM

ports, and PCI-Express slot.

Stable Design for Rugged Environment

The AEC-6876 is designed for rugged environments due to the

following reasons; first, it can withstand tough vibration testing up to

Chapter 1 General Information 1-3

5 g rms. With the anti-vibration hard drive device option, the

AEC-6876 can be used in high vibration environments. In addition,

the AEC-6876 offers low power consumption system that while

operating in ambient temperatures ranging from -10° to 55°C.

The AEC-6876 is a standalone high performance controller

designed for long-life operation and with high reliability. It can

replace traditional methods and become the mainstream

controller for the multimedia entertainment market.
