MPC-545 Mobility PC Ultra Small Computer

MPC-545 Front View

Mobility PCs are small desktop computers, that are a fraction of the size of a traditional desktop PC. This makes them the perfect choice for use in any area where space is constrained. Their small size, computing power, features, robust design and thermal efficiency allow them to be used in a vast range of applications.

The MPC-545 is a fully integrated ultra compact desktop PC. It supports 64 Bit Intel Notebook Core 2 Duo processors. Up to 4GB of RAM and standard 2.5-inch hard disk drives. It includes 3D dual independent video output (DVI-D + VGA), 16-bit audio, 10/100/1000 LAN, three USB 2.0 ports, and two RS-232 serial ports.

Drivers are provided for all major Operating systems: Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7 and Linux. The included driver CD makes operating system installation totally painless. The MPC-545 is powered from a small autoswitching (110/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz), notebook type, power adaptor.
