NextComputing Adds Dust Filtration System to Vigor Evo HD
 NASHUA,
NH, Mar 20, 2009 - NextComputing, providers of high performance, rugged
portable computers, enhance the dust and debris filtration system on the
Vigor Evo HD system.
 Specifically
tuned to perform best in the driest desert environments, the Dust Filtration
System (DFS) virtually eliminates the problems inherent to utilizing computers
in the field. Fine particle dust can infiltrate and coat every component of a
computer if not protected adequately. NextComputing’s DFS significantly reduces
the penetration of fine dust into the system, protecting vital components from
erosion. The architecture of the Vigor Evo HD provides adequate airflow to cool
to the system and prevent overheating, allowing the DFS to work optimally.
 A
mobile tactical operations center aboard a high-mobility multipurpose wheeled
vehicle (HUMVEE) may have computer equipment used inside a lightweight
multipurpose shelter (LMS). The equipment is fairly well protected in a
cocoon-like environment. Nonetheless, it is still subject to some breech of the
surrounding environment by personnel entering and exiting the vehicle. A Vigor
Evo HD system with DFS option provides that extra layer of protection to the
internals of the system no matter how fine and powdery the desert dust may be.
 NextComputing’s
DFS features side and bottom dust filters with easily removable covers for left
and right side IO panels and removable brush material inside the panel to filter
air flow while allowing cables to egress. The system is fully operational when
both side panels are attached. The filter is washable and reusable, and the
design of the filtration system allows for upgrading to a new filter and
configuration changes as needed.
NextComputing strikes just the right balance of ruggedness and portability
with its Vigor line. The Evo HD’s floating chassis design provides ultimate
shock resistance and absorption, and rubber bumpers along every corner provide
another layer of protection. Despite their rugged design, Vigor systems are
light enough to carry one handed, ideal for C4ISR (Command, Control,
Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) programs.
Vigor Evo HD systems are equipped with up to 2 quad-core Intel Xeon
processors, up to 5TB of storage, and up to 3 PCI Express slots with an
additional PCIx slot for graphical and other IO requirements.
