Finding the Right Fit
The system is built with formed and machined 5052-H32 and 6061-T6 aluminum alloys, featuring a durable black powder-coated finish. Designed to meet military performance standards, it weighs approximately 15 pounds and has compact dimensions of 10.5 x 7.8 x 7.2 inches—ideal for rugged deployments.
Rugged SFF computers from CP North America are designed for smooth implementation across a wide range of environments. Our standard offerings include a tactical embedded computer that performs reliably in modern combat scenarios and other demanding applications. These systems comply with RoHS and REACH regulations, with optional configurations that meet Trade Agreements Act (TAA) requirements.
Our tactical embedded computers offer a high degree of configurability to suit your specific needs. You can select options for operating system, I/O, video output, and memory. This flexibility ensures the system fits seamlessly into your application, whether standard or custom.
The system uses passive cooling technology, incorporating internal heat spreaders and external heat sinks to maintain optimal performance without fans. Standard features include M.2 2280 SSD storage and a 9–36 VDC power input, making it both powerful and adaptable in harsh environments.
SFF computers deliver powerful performance in a compact form, making them ideal for environments with limited installation space. Small footprint allows for seamless integration into tight setups like vehicle-mounted systems, without compromising capability.
Engineered for durability, these systems operate reliably under harsh conditions. They handle shock, vibration, dust, and moisture with ease, all while maintaining efficient thermal management—often fanless—and consuming less power than traditional systems.
In military and defense operations, SFF systems support command and control, enabling fast, informed decision-making. They’re also used in vehicle computing and UAV ground control, where precision and real-time data handling are critical.
These systems are equally suited for demanding commercial and industrial applications, from factory automation to process control. In transportation and security, they ensure dependable, consistent performance in fast-paced or rugged environments.
