ITOX Announces ATX Products to Support Intel Core2 Duo and Quad Processors

By DE Editors

ITOX (East Brunswick, NJ), provider of embedded x86 products, introduced two motherboards supporting Intel Core2 Duo and Quad processors. These high-performance ATX form-factor boards are designed for embedded applications requiring a stable revision-controlled platform, with long-term availability.

Using the Intel Q35 Express chipset, these products offer guaranteed availability through December 2012. The LGA775 socket supports a range of Intel Embedded Architecture processors, including the Intel Core2 Quad processors, Intel Core2 Duo processors, and Intel Celeron 400 series processors with 800-, 1067-, and 1333MHz front-side bus speeds.

The ITOX model BL630-DR ($400) motherboard uses an Intel ICH9DO Southbridge providing RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 disk configuration with Intel Matrix Storage Technology. Setup controls incorporated into the system BIOS allow pre-OS RAID creation, naming, and deletion of disk arrays. The ITOX BL630-D ($390) model uses the Intel ICH9 Southbridge, and is available for applications not requiring RAID and Intel AMT support.

Full management and status reporting of the RAID array storage devices is performed using Intel Matrix Storage Manager utility software. An auxiliary-powered hardware and firmware solution incorporates Intel Active Management Technology (Intel AMT), enabling remote monitoring and control of system resources.

These features make the ITOX BL630-DR suited for data-intensive applications such as medical imaging, security & surveillance, interactive kiosks, and additional applications requiring higher data security.
