Meet the HPPC 15-10X7211!
Nexcom’s HPPC 15-10X7211 is a high-performance, energy-efficient 15″ high bright panel PC designed for real-time processing in demanding environments. It is powered by the Intel Atom® x7211RE processor and features an ultra-bright 1800-nit display, along with a responsive 10-point PCAP touchscreen.
Engineered for durability, this panel PC has a well-thought-out mechanical design that protects against external damage while maintaining excellent touch sensitivity and readability. Its comprehensive connectivity options and concealed features enhance stability and efficiency, making it ideal for semi-outdoor applications such as parking systems, reverse vending machines, and self-service kiosks.
Robust Design for Challenging Environments
One of the standout features of Nexcom’s HPPC 15-10X7211 is its rugged construction. The XGA panel features optical bonding and an anti-fingerprint (AF) coating, which enhances durability and provides a smoother touch experience. Additionally, the anti-glare (AG) coating improves readability by reducing reflections and minimizing eye strain. With IP65 and IK8 ratings, this embedded, slim-bezel, fanless panel is designed for long-term reliability in even the harshest environments.
It also includes protective layers such as an anti-UV coating to prevent degradation and discoloration, as well as an anti-IR coating to minimize heat absorption, thereby optimizing energy efficiency. The design allows for flexible mounting options (VESA, panel, open-frame) and is backward compatible with our XPPC series mounts.
Impressive Intel SoC with Comprehensive Connectivity
Nexcom’s HPPC 15-10X7211 is driven by the Intel Atom® x7211RE processor, chosen for its outstanding efficiency, integrated graphics, and cost-effective performance in low-power, embedded applications. With an array of I/O and expansion possibilities, this edge computing device ensures seamless connectivity. M.2 2242 key M and Mini PCIe slots support 4G/LTE and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity, while an HDMI® 2.0b port allows for dual-display configurations. The panel PC also includes audio output options and multiple COM (RS-232/422/485) interfaces to connect legacy devices and sensors in a variety of semi-outdoor environments.
Enhanced Stability and Longevity
The Nexcom HPPC 15-10X7211 is designed for durability, featuring a structurally reinforced embedded board that ensures stability and addresses thermal concerns. Its extended lifespan helps reduce long-term replacement costs. The panel PC includes smart features such as auto-dimming and intelligent fan control, which enhance energy efficiency, convenience, and user customization. With a power input range of 12V to 24V and an operating temperature range of -20°C to 60°C, this edge computing system is ideal for semi-outdoor applications like self-service kiosks, parking systems, and reverse vending machines. With the HPPC 15-10X7211, businesses can rely on advanced and dependable edge computing, ensuring optimal performance and long-term value.
