The backplane is normally manufactured using thicker PCI boards than found

in desktop PCs. These thicker boards result in better mechanical

characteristics. This allows for frequent plugging and unplugging of the CPU

or I/O cards.

Rack-Mount or Industrial PC Motherboard

Additionally, maintainability is improved over desktop PCs because all I/O

boards, including the CPU board, are easily accessible from the top of the

chassis.

We do not recommend equipping a rack-mount chassis with a standard

mainboard found in desktop PCs because you can lose mechanical ruggedness

and good maintainability.

The rack-mount PC has the following special capabilities:

• It can be mounted in a rack that contains other units such as special signal

conditioning, remote I/O, and redundant power supplies.

• It is more powerful for hardware-in-the-loop or other applications that

consist of hundreds of I/O channels or use many I/O boards.

• It can be placed in a harsher environment.

• It is more easily maintained.
