Introduction

The ACP-4320 is a 4U rackmount industrial computer chassis designed for building
mission-critical applications. With the latest industrial design on its outlook, the ACP-
4320 breakthroughs the traditional, rigid impression of industrial PCs, and provides
users with both a high-performance and a state-of-the-art operating platform.
Dual front-accessible SAS/SATA HDD trays for easy maintenance
The ACP-4320 is supplied with two front-accessible SAS/SATA HDD trays, which
provide the most economic and user-friendly solution for data storage. Users may
easily replace a SAS/SATA HDD without opening the chassis cover. Other data stor-
age options include two 5.25" drive bays for optical disk drives and one 3.5" drive bay
for floppy drive disk or internal 3.5" hard drive disk. Moreover, the front accessible
USB interface can be connected with various peripheral devices for data input,
backup, and transferal.
Unique alarm detection and notification to reduce system down time
The ACP-4320 has a unique alarm module. This module automatically detects the
system operating conditions, such as power, HDD, FAN, as well as in-chassis tem-
perature, and it may show the system status on the front LED indicators. If any failure
happens, the module will also give an audible alarm to notify users to take necessary
actions.
Versatile industrial features
The ACP-4320 supports either an ATX or a MicroATX motherboard, plus an up-to-15-
slot PICMG 1.0 backplane or 12-slot PICMG1.3 express backplane, bringing users
flexibility for their system configuration planning.
It also provides a wide range of ATX power supply options for user selection: from
300W to 400W for both single and redundant power supply. The lockable front door
prevents from any unauthorized access to data storage zone. Moreover, the stream-
lined in-chassis airflow design keeps the system cool, while the easy-to-maintain fans
and filters shorten the system's MTTR (Mean Time to Repair). All these outstanding
features make the ACP-4320 the best choice for price, performance and overall cost
of ownership.
