The EIPC-MIS08 is a fully enclosed modular industrial box PC built into a finned all-aluminium chassis with active fan cooling. It supports 6th, 8th and 9th generation Intel desktop processors and is designed for control cabinets, machine control and vision stations that need a large number of network, serial and USB ports in a rugged enclosure. Without the mounting bracket it measures 197 x 255 x 83 mm, and 234 x 255 x 89 mm with the bracket fitted.

The interface panel carries a 9-36V Phoenix terminal power input, VGA and HDMI display outputs, three Intel Gigabit Ethernet ports, six USB 3.0 ports, four COM ports, external power-switch and power-LED terminals, power and HDD indicator LEDs, a three-hole audio jack, a power board module and a power switch. Optional items include a four-port MXM LAN module that adds four more Intel i210 ports for seven Gigabit ports in total, plus Wi-Fi, 4G or 5G antenna terminals.

A dedicated motherboard with the Intel Z390 chipset drives an Intel Core i7 8700 processor (6th/8th/9th Gen desktop CPUs optional) with CPU-integrated graphics supporting VGA and HDMI, or optionally DVI or a second HDMI. Two DDR4 SODIMM slots support up to 64 GB of memory, and storage can combine M.2 SSDs with two 2.5-inch drive bays that can be configured as RAID 0 or 1. Optional GPIO and light-source modules, a bracket-mounting design, 9-36V input and a GB9254-2008 Class A EMC rating complete the system.

• Finned aluminium enclosure: A fully enclosed modular all-aluminium chassis with finned cooling and a fan protects the system in industrial environments.
• 6th/8th/9th Gen desktop CPUs: Powered by an Intel Core i7 8700 on a Z390 platform, with other 6th, 8th and 9th generation desktop CPUs available.
• Up to 64GB DDR4: Two DDR4 SODIMM slots support up to 64 GB of memory for demanding multitasking.
• Three Gigabit LAN ports: One Intel i219 and two Intel i210 controllers provide three Gigabit ports, expandable by four more i210 ports via an optional MXM module.
• MXM network expansion: An optional MXM module adds four extra Intel i210 Gigabit ports for up to seven network ports in total.
• Rich USB and serial I/O: Six USB 3.0 ports and four COM ports connect cameras, scanners, PLCs and legacy equipment.
• Flexible storage and RAID: M.2 SSD plus two 2.5-inch drive bays support RAID 0 or 1 for speed or redundancy.
• Mixed-voltage input: A 9-36V Phoenix terminal input accepts a wide range of industrial power supplies.
• Rugged by design: -30 to 70 C operation, vibration and shock ratings and bracket mounting suit harsh environments.

The EIPC-MIS08 suits industrial control, machine vision and gateway roles that need many network and I/O ports. Three Gigabit LAN ports expandable to seven, six USB 3.0 ports and four COM ports let it connect multiple cameras, scanners, PLCs and meters, while RAID 0/1 storage, up to 64 GB of memory and VGA plus HDMI output support data-logging, inspection and thin-client tasks. Its fan-cooled aluminium body, 9-36V input and bracket mounting suit control cabinets and vehicles.

Each unit ships in protective packaging suited to its modular aluminium chassis and is mounted with a bracket. Processor, memory, storage, RAID, network modules, GPIO and light-source modules and the power adapter can be configured to match project requirements.
