Description

Created for the battlefield, bridge, or mission control, the Rugged Science MILCORTEX 4000 is a military grade embedded computer designed to meet the highest standards of performance, durability, and security. It can deliver fast and flexible connectivity for any network environment, thanks to its support for both Copper and Fiber Optic networks up to 10GbE. It can also withstand extreme temperatures, shocks, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference via its ruggedized design and stringent mil-spec testing.

Powerful Computing
Powered by an Intel 12th Gen Alder Lake-S CPU with up to 16 physical cores, the MILCORTEX 4000 can accommodate 64 GB of ECC/non-ECC RAM, dual 2.5in SSDs, and features support for GPU accelerators to enable advanced AI edge computing solutions. Native support for Intel® vPro, TPM 2.0 and Time- Sensitive Networking (TSN).

Flexible Expansion
Designed with multiple connectivity options for maximum application flexibility, the MILCORTEX 4000 can optionally support up to 9 Independent 2.5G LANs with 4 IEEE 802.3at PoE+, 2 Fiber LANs up to 10GbE, 6 USB 3.0, miniPCIe and m.2 expansion ports, SUMIT expansion ports, native support of 8k graphics, and up to 4 independent displays.

Solid-State Reliability
The MILCORTEX 4000 has an innovative mechanical design that enables a fanless, passive approach to cooling. Fans are loud, dirty, and prone to failure, impacting overall reliability. With no moving parts, the MILCORTEX is completely solid state, ensuring a silent, ultra-reliable computing solution in operating temperatures of -40°C to +70°C.

Common Computing
The MILCORTEX 4000 is designed as a common computing platform that offers seamless connectivity with nearly any device via the front and rear faceplates. Internal expansion ports can further enhance I/O alternatives to meet many custom application requirements. Contact a Rugged Science sales engineer for MILCORTEX configuration options.
