Ruggedized Compact Airborne Recorder by Ampex

Ampex Data Systems Corporation announced its ruggedized ultra compact airborne recorder, the TuffServ 40 (TS 40).

The TS 40 is the small, light and the most power-frugal member of the TuffServ family. At 1.8" H x 3.5" W x 6.25" D and weighing 1.4 lbs, it’s designed for applications such as tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems where size and payload weight are at a premium.

Using a fixed solid-state storage module, the TS 40 provides up to 160GB of memory with larger capacities available in the future. The standard system is delivered with a Linux system, providing a range of network services including NFS and Samba for Windows SMB/CIFS networks, FTP and iSCSI.

Ampex most recently displayed the TS 40 at the ITC show in Las Vegas, NV.
