Teknor Targets CTI and Internet Infrastructure Markets With New SBC.Business Editors SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 10, 2001 TEKNOR Embedded Systems Conference Teknor's PCI-949 single board computer offers superlative next-generation Pentium III processing, dual Ethernet, and an option of up to 2 GB of memory. Teknor Applicom Inc., a Kontron company, today revealed the PCI-949, its latest single board computer dedicated to supporting a multitude of datacom/telecom network applications. Featuring an Intel(R) Pentium(R) III processor at 850 MHz and an option of up to 2 GB of SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) A type of dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that has been widely used since the late 1990s. SDRAM chips eliminated wait states by dividing the chip into two cell blocks and interleaving data between them. , the PCI-949 provides additional value with dual Ethernet and an Ultra-2 SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers. SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. LVD/SE (80 MB/s) for increased storage support, ideal for any range of mission-critical applications in Computer Telephony Integration Computer Telephony Integration - Computer Telephone Integration (CTI (Computer Telephone Integration) Combining data with voice systems in order to enhance telephone services. For example, automatic number identification (ANI) allows a caller's records to be retrieved from the database while the call is routed to the appropriate party. ) networks. "The CTI and Internet infrastructure market is built upon a plethora of networking systems that need to be powered," said Jan-Philippe De Broeck, Teknor's board level product manager. "Systems developers seeking a quicker time to market with a non-motherboard solution should look no further than the PCI-949 single board computer. This SBC (1) (SBC Communications Inc., San Antonio, TX, www.sbc.com) A large, national telecommunications company that grew from a multitude of local and regional companies, including Southwestern Bell, Pacific Bell and Nevada Bell, into a single, unified brand by 2002. balances exceptional performance with an incredible feature-set designed into one low-profile format." The PCI-949 integrates dual 10Base-T/100Base-Tx Ethernet interfaces, an option for video support, and is available in two Intel chipset flavors - the Intel 440BX AGPset which supports up to 1 GB of SDRAM, and an optional Intel 440GX AGPset to support up to 2 GB of memory. For applications that require a more cost-effective processing solution, the PCI-949 is also available with an Intel Celeron processor with clock speeds of up to 733 MHz. Additional features include two serial ports (one configurable as RS232/422/485), CompactFlash support, floppy disk controller A floppy disk controller (FDC) is a special-purpose chip and associated circuitry that directs and controls reading from and writing to a computer's floppy disk drive (FDD). ; real time clock with battery backup, two USB ports, and support for the following operating systems - Windows(R) 98, Windows(R) NT 4.0, Windows(R) 2000, Linux, QNX A multiuser, multitasking, real time operating system for PCs from QNX Software Systems, Ltd., Ottawa, Ontario (www.qnx.com), that is noted for its low-memory requirement and rapid response. Similar to Unix, it has been in use since the early 1980s. , FreeBSD. Pricing and Availability Teknor's PCI-949 is available immediately. Please call for pricing. (OEM prices are available).
