RXi2-EP Industrial PC

The Next Generation of Ruggedized Computing

GE’s Automation & Controls has
developed the next generation of its
powerful, expandable, and reliable
industrial computers (IPC). RXi2 IPCs
offer new processor choices, increased
and faster storage, improved graphics,
and enhanced security features.

The RXi2-EP IPC delivers compact,
rugged, mid-range performance
computing capabilities to run HMI,
historian, and analytics applications
right at the machine to enable
improved real-time control of
operations and better integration into
plant-wide systems.

Combining outstanding graphics
capabilities with the added
expandability of 0, 1, 2 or 4 PCI Express
slots and CFast storage, the RXi2­EP is ideal for a range of demanding
industrial applications.

High-Performance
Computing

GE selected the latest Intel processors
based on their unmatched performance.
The RXi2-EP IPC has up to 16GB of ECC
RAM, 5 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, and
industrial grade high-speed HDD storage
(or optional SSD disk storage) to complete
the high-performance design.

These features make the RXi2-EP IPC the
perfect platform for running GE’s Proficy
software applications or other industrial
applications right at the machine, even in
the harshest environments.

The RXi2-EP IPC provides additional
application flexibility with both mini
PCI Express and low-profile PCI Express
slots. This expandability combined with
advanced CPUs delivers high-performance,
graphically powerful computing.

To help keep data and operations secure,
the RXi2-EP utilizes Trusted Platform
Module (TPM) and Secure Boot technology.

*

Greater Uptime

All aspects of the RXi2-EP IPC have
been engineered for reliability in harsh
environments, from the use of all industrial
grade components to its fanless design.

The core of the RXi2-EP IPC architecture
is GE’s rugged COM Express modular
CPU platform. GE incorporates patented
thermal monitoring technology with
sophisticated passive cooling techniques to
provide the highest-performance, fanless
industrial computing platform that can
operate in extended temperature ranges.

Enhanced Productivity &
Lower TCO

The RXi2-EP IPC combines high performance
with reliability, enhancing productivity and
reducing cost of ownership.

The RXi2-EP IPC delivers low TCO through
features such as compact size, reduced
maintenance, low power consumption,
and ease of future performance upgrades
enabled by our innovative rugged COM
Express CPU architecture.
