Integrated gaming system features “cabinet-ready I/O”
Advantech-Innocore the gaming focused business group of Advantech, announces the DPX-E135 gaming system. The DPX-E135 is a complete gaming system for the regulated casino and AWP gaming markets combining all the hardware features necessary for a gaming platform together in a high performance industrial grade system.
Adding a dimension to the DPX-E series range, the DPX-E135 is designed with 'Cabinet-ready I/O'. This innovative design puts all the connectors conveniently in one area and uses typical slot industry connectors to provide an economical, robust harnessing arrangement. The need for additional connector boards or backplanes is eliminated saving cost and simplifying cabinet layout and harnessing.
At the heart of the DPX-E135 is the 3rd gen AMD’s G Series embedded platform, with the latest high performance dual and quad core SOC devices operating up to 2.4GHz and supporting up to 16GB DDR3 RAM. A 'Discrete-level Graphics' core (Radeon HD8000) outputs to two independent monitors via two DisplayPort 1.2 DP++ ports plus a VGA legacy port.
In spite of the high performance of the CPUs (up to 25W) and the integrated GPU, the DPX-E135 is passive cooled requiring no CPU fan in most applications thereby reducing costs for maintenance and potential fan failures in the field.
A choice of enclosure covers is available for the DPX-E135 depending on the customer’s preference and local requirements. The system can be supplied with no cover, a short cover with casino grade lock to secure the logic/storage area, or a full length cover that covers both logic and cable/IO areas.
A full feature set of I/O and COMs designed specifically for gaming devices is also included and the system is compatible with Advantech’s software solutions for security, media validation, SAS and diagnostics. A wide variety of storage devices are supported including SATA DOM, C-Fast, SD card, USB drive and the system has a built in easy-service tray for 2.5” SATA SSDs.
