AAEON Rolls Out Vehicle-Specific Embedded PC Duo
2016.05.24
(Taipei, Taiwan)May 24, 2016 —AAEON®, a major developer of industrial computing solutions, releases a pair of vehicle-centric embedded devices – the VPC-3300S and VPC-5500S – for facilitating traditional vehicles the transition to NVR platforms.
Built as in-vehicle network video recorders, both devices can essentially double up as fully fledged embedded PCs due to their versatility. First of all, the pair maintains the E13 certification for intended deployment in motor vehicles. Power Ignition Control is also incorporated as a form of protection against the power condition of vehicles, activating/ deactivating the device only after a preset time when the power supply is stable.
Considering the general condition the devices may be subjected to as the vehicle travels, the pair’s operating temperature is supported from -20°C to 70°C, tested with the MIL-STD-810G standard, and designed to support a range of voltages (9 – 36 V for VPC-3300S, 10 – 35 V for VPC-5500S) to ensure utmost viability for vehicular use. In addition, the pair adopts a fanless thermal solution that is less prone to breakdowns than its fanned counterpart.
The two devices are primarily differentiated by the processor powering them: The VPC-3300S uses an Intel® Celeron® J1900 that drives the device’s 8 GB memory support, PoE, built-in satellite navigation (GPS/BDS/GLONASS), DI/Os, VGA and HDMI, LAN ports and CAN Buses, while higher tier VPC-5500S sports an Intel® Core™ i7-4700EQ that, in addition to the abovementioned features, enhance memory support to 16 GB and adds DisplayPort as an extra display option.
“The Duo is created for the IoT era” said Jill Wang, Product Manager of AAEON’s Network Security Division “With both economical and performance-oriented options to choose from, transport operators can take advantage of IoT and turn their fleet into mobile infotainment platforms”.

AAEON Rolls out the High Performing FWS-8500 Network Security Appliance
2016-05-17
(Taipei, Taiwan) May 17, 2016 —AAEON®, a leading manufacturer of advanced hardware platforms for network computing and security solutions, releases the FWS-8500, a high performance enterprise-level network security appliance.
Powered by two Intel® Xeon® processor E5-2600 V3 (codenamed Haswell-EP) and the Intel® 8925 chipset (codenamed Coleto Creek), the FWS-8500 features enhanced hardware performance that empowers WAN optimization, intrusion detecting/preventing, network access control, load balancing, web content filtering, unified threat managing, and next-generation firewall into one single convenient system offering diverse capabilities without having to invest on individual devices.
The appliance is made to be deployed in server rooms with its 2U dimension. It is also designed to work with up to eight of AAEON’s Network Interface Modules (NIM) for expanded functionalities. These modules can be used with both copper and fiber connections with a maximum of 8 ports available on selected models. This, combined with the device’s single Ethernet port, makes the FWS-8500 capable of providing a total of 65 ports.
Other features include memory support of up to 512GB of DDR4 1600/1866/2133 DIMM memory, 2.5”/3.5” HDD bay, 650W power supply with redundancy, PCIe slots for expansion cards as well as five hot swappable fans.
“By combining some of the most wanted network security features into one, we aim to make the FWS-8500 as a must-have for any secured networks” said Fredy Hsu, Product Manager of AAEON’s Network Security Division “This not only brings convenience to our customers, but more importantly, saving them time and resources compared to acquiring them one by one”.
