APLEX Technology Inc. thanks everyone who visited and supported it during embedded world Germany. During the show APLEX demonstrated its new ATEX explosion-proof solutions, including panel PCs, displays, and AVoIP (Audio and Video Over Internet Protocol) box.
Highlighted at the booth were the AEx-9E Intel Core Ultra 5/7 powered panel PC and the AEx-1E display. Both are built with a SUS316L stainless steel enclosure and a 9H anti-scratch surface touch screen for demanding environments. The solutions are IP66/ IP69K certified with waterproof M12 connectors as well as holding ATEX/IECEx Zone 2/22 and C1D2/C2D2/C3 certifications.
While showcasing the AEx-1E with the AVoIP-201, APLEX demonstrated how a single RJ-45 cable can replace traditional HDMI, USB, and power cables while transmitting high-definition signals up to 100 meters. Due to its long-distance transmission capabilities and its adherence to hazardous environments, the AEx series is ideal for applications in oil, gas, flour mills, mines, and chemical processing.
