ABOS-921D Series: 21.5" IP65 Sealed Industrial Panel PC with Integrated Button Controls

The ABOS-921D Series is a 21.5" industrial multi-touch Panel PC engineered for demanding environments like smart manufacturing, process control, and machine automation. Powered by 12th or 13th Gen Intel Core i3 or i5 processors with support for up to 64GB DDR4 RAM and high-speed M.2 NVMe storage, it provides robust computing power for intuitive HMI operations and intensive automation workflows. Built with a rugged aluminium chassis, it features a fully sealed IP65-rated front bezel to isolate internal components against dust and water ingress. The Full HD display features projected capacitive multi-touch technology for responsive, glove-friendly operation and integrates physical tactile controls—including start, stop, reset, and emergency stop buttons—for enhanced operator safety and control.

To ensure versatile connectivity, the system includes a comprehensive I/O suite featuring five USB ports (a front-facing waterproof USB 2.0, two rear USB 3.2 Gen 1, and two USB 2.0), dual GbE LAN ports, HDMI video output, and a configurable RS-232/422/485 serial port. It offers flexible local drive expansion via an internal 2.5" SATA HDD/SSD bay alongside the high-speed M.2 SSD slot. Engineered for harsh factory conditions, the ABOS-921D supports a wide 9V–36V DC input via a secure terminal block and operates reliably from 0°C to 50°C temperatures. With top or bottom swing arm and standard VESA mounting options, it is a versatile, heavy-duty solution where long-term operational stability and tactile operator safety are essential.

SK316: IP68 Fully Sealed Antibacterial Industrial Silicone Keyboard

The SK316 is a highly durable industrial silicone keyboard engineered for cleanrooms, medical environments, food processing facilities, and sterile production environments where hygiene and reliability are essential. Constructed from premium antibacterial rigid silicone, it delivers exceptional surface protection designed to inhibit bacterial growth and endure rigorous wipe-downs with industrial-grade disinfectants. The device features an IP68 fully sealed dust and waterproof protection rating, built to withstand complete submersion and thorough washdown protocols. The integrated backlighting ensures clear key visibility and operational accuracy in dimly lit workspaces, while the rugged silicone construction provides tactile, responsive key feedback for gloved or wet-finger typing across demanding processing lines.

To facilitate seamless data entry and streamlined workstation control, the keyboard includes an integrated Force Sensing Resistor (FSR) pointing device for precise cursor tracking without needing an external mouse. It offers hassle-free USB 2.0 connectivity alongside a dedicated hardware ON/OFF power switch, enabling operators to lock the keys for rapid wipe-down cleaning without disconnecting cables or interrupting active host systems. Engineered for versatile deployment in tight footprints, the SK316 features a compact 89-key layout with an ultra-slim 12mm profile, making it a rugged, space-saving input solution where continuous sanitisation and long-term operational durability are critical.

REM-4R4-xx: Out-of-Band Manager with 4-Port Serial Console and Switched PDU

The REM-4R4-xx is a durable out-of-band management solution engineered for WAN edge deployments, branch offices, kiosks, and remote IT infrastructure enclosures. Combining a next-generation serial console server and an intelligent switched PDU into a single compact footprint, it provides resilient remote monitoring and power control without requiring costly on-site technician visits. Constructed for mission-critical reliability, it supports enterprise security protocols including FIPS 140-2 validated encryption, TLS 1.3, SSHv2, and Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), enabling administrators to securely diagnose CLI faults, apply firmware updates, and manage power switching across remote devices.

To streamline automated network operations, the unit incorporates four RJ45 RS-232 serial ports alongside four individually switchable IEC C13 power outlets with sequencing, scheduling, and automated reboot capabilities. System self-healing is driven by an integrated Ping Watchdog that automatically power-cycles unresponsive equipment, supported by RESTful APIs, Ansible modules, and direct telemetry logging for modern NetOps workflows. Engineered for versatile edge connectivity, the REM-4R4-xx features single or dual Gigabit Ethernet ports with optional 4G LTE cellular failover, real-time alert notifications, and flexible desktop, wall-mount, or 19" rackmount installation options.

MSR175plus: Transportation Data Logger with GPS, Shock and Climate Tracking

The MSR175plus is a tamper-proof, air cargo approved transportation data logger engineered for continuous monitoring and liability verification across critical supply chain and logistics applications. Featuring dual 3-axis acceleration sensors recording simultaneously up to ±15g and ±200g at high measurement rates up to 6400Hz, it is ideal for air, sea, rail, and road freight where tracking mechanical shock and handling damage is essential. Built with a robust housing and high-capacity memory storing over 4 million values, it withstands demanding transit conditions while recording critical impact thresholds, temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, and ambient light levels for months at a time.

To provide precise geographical tracking and conclusive incident mapping without third-party intervention, the unit features an integrated GPS/GNSS receiver that pinpoints exactly where and when damaging events occur. Its rechargeable 2400mAh lithium-polymer battery delivers up to 8 weeks of runtime with active GPS tracking and over 1 year of continuous logging without GPS enabled. Designed for rapid evaluation and reporting, the MSR175plus connects via standard USB, operates reliably across temperatures from -20°C to 65°C, and pairs with comprehensive MSR Dashboard and ShockViewer software for straightforward configuration and analysis.
