We supply wall, VESA, and DIN-rail mounting kits for a variety of application environments. With competitive pricing and plenty of features, ARK-6322 is an ideal industrial PC where excellent performance is combined with multiple ports and custom support.

High Flexibility with Reserved iDoor Module for Diverse Applications

ARK-6322 provides high flexibility with reserved iDoor space on the front bezel. Custom requirements are easily satisfied with mini PCIe modules such as isolated or non-isolated COM ports, CANBus, parallel LPT, DIO and LAN port, via a series of optional MOS modules for ARK Series. MOS modules feature extended functional I/O ports that expand the system to serve diverse applications. ARK-6322 offers over ten different SKUs including the MOS-2220-Z1101E for up to a total of 3 GigaLAN ports, MOS-2220-X1101E for additional printer port, MOS-1110Y-0101E for isolated digital I/O port, MOS-1130Y-0201E for isolated CANBus and so on. All modules pass the EMC and safety certifications and can be factory- or CTOS- or end user-assembled.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
