Chassis Options
All models are available in one of three chassis:
- ICPC-1 chassis - This is our most compact chassis, capable of being installed in a variety of locations within almost any vehicle. While not supporting any PCI cards, the ICPC-1 chassis does allow an internal Mini PCI card to be used.
- ICPC-3 chassis - The ICPC-3 chassis is only slightly larger than the ICPC-1 chassis, and offers additional RS-232 or SMA antenna ports, a low-profile PCI slot, and supports an externally accessible SIM card slot for the internal 3G module.
- ICPC-4 chassis - Although the ICPC-4 chassis is our largest it is still very compact, and supports up to 2 full-size PCI slots, plus an internal optical drive or removable hard drive module.
