Kontron Intelligent Computer
Kontron introduced the Kontron KIC (Kontron Intelligent Computer) family of Box PCs with front and rear interfaces that, for the first time, can be integrated directly into the chassis of devices and machines. Thanks to its second set of interfaces, the IPC requires no additional cabling to the front of the housing and can therefore be faster and more easily integrated into machine designs for low installation costs. By reducing the need for cables, reliability increases and maintenance costs decrease significantly since the potential of failure from cables being disconnected over time is greatly reduced.
