IEI Launches Industrial SBCs with Intel® H61 Express Chipset for Various Cost-efficient Applications

The PCIE-H610 is a full-size PICMG 1.3 CPU card which supports 32nm LGA1155 Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® CPU with Intel® H61 chipset. The PCIE-H610 with Intel® desktop 35W CPU and dual Realtek PCIe GbE delivers cost-efficient performance.  A wide range of I/O options are supported including six USB 2.0 ports (two by rear I/O, four by on-board pin header), four USB 2.0 ports (by backplane pin header via gold finger), two RS-232 ports, one RS-422/485 port, four SATA 3Gb/s ports, one LPT port, one FDD port, and one 6-pin wafer for KB/MS.

The IMB-H612A and IMB-H612B are microATX motherboards supporting 32nm LGA1155 Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3/Pentium®/Celeron® CPU with Intel® H61 chipset.  The IMB-H612 series features two RS-232 and VGA ports on the rear I/O panel making it suitable for automation and surveillance environments that require cableless and dual display applications.  The IMB-H612A has six COM ports while the IMB-H612B has ten COM ports.  The IMB-H612 series supports a wide range of I/O options including four SATA 3Gb/s without RAID & AHCI, one RS-422/485 port, two PS/2 keyboard connectors, ten USB 2.0 ports (four by rear I/O, six by pin header), five RS-232 ports (IMB-H612A-R10 only) and nine RS-232 ports (IMB-H612B-R10 only).

Taipei, Sept.18, 2012 (CENS)--Adlink Technology Inc. and Avalue Technology Inc., both Taiwanese industrial PC makers, saw revenues grow 14% and 53% year on year (YoY) to NT$490 million (US$16.33 million) and NT$235 million (US$7.83 million), respectively, showing remarkable growths in low season.

An institutional investor predicts that with massive POS (point of sales) orders from U.S, Adlink expects revenues in the third quarter to hit a record high, with Avalue to do the same with increasing JDM (joint design manufacturing) orders.

A representative of Adlink says mounting POS orders from U.S boosted the firm’s revenues in the third quarter, along with recovery of medical-care item shipments, and growing gaming machines with 2.5-month order visibility.

Adlink’s non-combined revenues in July and August totaled NT$478 million (US$15.93 million), with combined revenues in July reaching NT$429 million (US$14.3 million), much higher than the NT$243 million (US$8.1 million) in non-combined revenues in the same period, mainly due to the high-proportion of POS orders shipped from the firm’s subsidiary in U.S.

An institutional investor says intensified POS shipments from May to October drove Adlink’s revenue significantly from July to September, which will likely hit a record high in the third quarter.

Avalue saw combined revenues in August rise 6.91% MoM to NT$490 million (US$16.33 million), up 14% YoY, benefiting from the merger of LiPPERT German, a German embedded-industrial-PC maker.

An institutional investor says Avalue merged LiPPERT to tap the German market as western industrialized countries tend to seek contract manufacturers overseas, and Taiwanese industrial PC makers are more competitive than western counterparts. Avalue saw industrial PCs account for 71% of total revenues, up from last year’s 64%, with growing orders likely to push revenues in October to a historical high again.

Taipei, Sept.27, 2012 (CENS)--Taiwan’s industrial PC makers including Advantech Co. Ltd., ICP Electronics Inc., Axiomtek Co. Ltd., Adlink Technology Inc., and Avalue Technology Inc. are taking increasing orders from the U.S in the second half due to U.S. government’s policy to stimulate investments, which helps to offset delayed orders from Europe.

N. America accounted for 29% of Advantech’s total revenues in the first half, up 15% year on year (YoY) with the highest growth among all areas to have risen more than 10 months continually. C.S He, general manager of Advantech, is optimistic of continual growth in N. America in the second half.

Apart from Advantech, ICP Electronics and Avalue is also raising shipments to POS (point of sale) customers in U.S in the second half. A representative of ICP Electronics pointed out that benefiting from rebounding ODM (original design manufacturing) orders in the U.S., the company is expected to witness revenues grow 15% in the second half, compared to the first.

Revenues in America contributed 60% to Avalue’s revenues in the first half, up remarkably from last year’s 55%, while European sales dropped due to the debt crisis. Benefiting from economic recovery in the U.S., the firm saw POS orders from the area increase hugely; while an institutional investor predicts POS orders to account for nearly 30% of Avalue’s revenues this year, up 40% YoY.

EtherWAN Systems Inc., a subsidiary of Axiomtek, witnessed profits in the first half exceed the whole year of 2011, and is expected to see profits in the second half double from the first due to growing orders from U.S., whose customers generate 60~70% of EtherWAN’s revenues.

Adlink, also benefitting from the growing U.S market, saw revenues there rise 30% YoY in the first half, which is likely to increase continuously in the second half. A representative from Adlink indicated that the firm’s U.S market is mainly developed by its subsidiary Ampro Co., which brings orders from large-sized customers to boost revenues in the U.S. in the first half.
