Parvus Corporation announces the availability of the DuraCOR 820, a rugged, ultra-small tactical mission computer measuring less than 3.0" in height and 3.0 lbs in weight.

The DuraCOR is fully qualified to MIL-STD-810F environmental specifications (altitude, thermal, shock, vibration, humidity), and is now available commercial off the shelf.

The DuraCOR 820 serves as an ideal high-performance computing subsystem for space/weight-conscious manned and unmanned systems. Designed for military and aerospace ground mobile and airborne deployments, the DuraCOR 820 features a conductively-cooled 1.4GHz Intel Pentium-M processor and solid state disk pre-loaded with a Linux or Windows XP Embedded operating system. This corrosion/splash-resistant unit is qualified to reliably operate in ambient temperatures of -40ºC to +71ºC, 15G operating shock, 95% humidity, 60,000 ft altitude, and aircraft/helicopter vibration profiles.

Rugged, watertight, ultra-miniature Mil-spec performance connectors bring out dual 10/100 Fast Ethernet network connections, MIL-STD-704E power input, analog video, 3x USB, 2x RS-232, DIO, keyboard, and mouse. This robust combination of function and small form factor ruggedness enables the DuraCOR 820 to support a wide range of applications, including Command and Control On-the-Move, Unmanned Vehicle Operator Control, C4ISR Situational Awareness, etc.
