Editor Note: Arbor Solution will display its FPC-7800 box PC at PACK EXPO Las Vegas in booth #S-7198, September 28-30, 2015.

"With its tremendous flexibility, the FPC-7800 is undoubtedly the flagship of our popular line of box PCs," noted Brian Yurkiw, Arbor Solution vice president. "Including the Intel Q87 chipset and a 4^th generation Intel Core processor enhances the unit's manageability and security for the most demanding needs. Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, model FCP-7700, the FCP-7800 is an ideal fanless box computer for applications such as a controller on oil rigs; a control box on an assembly line; a vehicle computer, especially in cold conditions; and a machine vision component, where it excels due to its capability of housing a powerful i7 processor."

Configurations
The new Arbor Solution FPC-7800 series is available in a variety of configurations to cater to different expansion requirements. Included models are:

FPC-7800 – lacks expansion slots, but is slim in profile and lightweight for a computer of this power

FPC-7802 – adds two PCI Express slots for users interfacing modern expansion cards
FPC-7803 – adds two PCI slots for users interfacing older expansion cards and legacy hardware

Additionally, all variations have an additional mPCIe minicard slot, six USB 3.0 slots, options for internal USB slots, four COM ports, three GbE ports, and three video output ports (one DVI-I and two display ports).

Storage Options
Another critical feature found in all FPC-7800 series units is multiple storage options. These include:
