Kontron’s TRACe family of operational computers, designed specifically for the transportation market, is designed to deliver proven, rugged and feature-rich building blocks that allow design flexibility. The first platform in the family is the TRACe B304-TR, which is an EN50155-certified fanless transportation computer designed to make customisation easy to meet application-specific requirements.
The TRACe family benefits from the inherent flexibility of the COM Express Computer-On-Module (COM) format, and features the Intel Atom E3845 processor with up to quad-core 1,91 GHz performance. Its rugged design ensures stable operation in harsh environments and is ideal for any rolling stock application such as passenger information systems, video streaming and storage servers, security surveillance and train management systems.
This product line features high performance density and low power consumption in a small-footprint, low-profile design that offers integrators flexibility in terms of the number of available I/O. It also provides long-term support by design based on its modularity and seamless technology insertion of the processor, storage, I/O and power supply unit.
The second member of the family is the Kontron TRACe V304-TR, which is an EN50155-certified and tested fanless network video recorder (NVR) that can record and transmit H.264 video streams, making it ideally suited for rolling stock IP video surveillance.
This platform’s storage capabilities include an internal fixed 2,5", 256 GB SSD and one SATA disk holder with a tray for an extractible second 2,5" HDD (not included). The Kontron V304-TR uses a proven COM Express COMs module featuring the Intel Atom E3845 processor with quad-core 1,91 GHz performance.
All Kontron's TRACe transportation computing platforms integrate advanced health management tools and an intelligent Power-on Built-in Test (PBIT) solution which provides a modular and scalable set of uniform test routines to assess the health status and configuration of the complete system. This enables operators to permanently, continuously and independently monitor and report the status of the application thanks to dedicated health management resources in the computer independent from the main CPU.
