The front bezels on these panel PCs are environmentally sealed to comply with NEMA 4/IP65 specifications from damaging moisture, dust, and dirt.The panel PCs meet and exceed industry standards for RF emissions, susceptibility, shock, and vibration per IEC 61000 electrical fast transient, surge, drop in power, conducted susceptibility, and conducted immunity tests; and FCC Part 15 B and CE EMC directive 2004/108/EC. The devices can withstand 1 G vibration and 15 Gs of shock.

The panels support Linux, Windows XPe, CE 6.0, WES7, and Windows 7, and have two gigabytes of system memory with optional customer-installed SATA drive and CompactFlash solid-state disk. I/O support includes a Gigabit Ethernet port, four USB 2.0, and two RS-232 serial channels.
