Innodisk: M.2 SSD I/O Expansions Ready for IoT Deployment

Innodisk Corporation announce M.2 I/O expansions ready for IIoT deployment.

Embedded systems do not always fit the common standards and as such require a unique approach. The company is aiming at the industrial embedded sector with its flexible solutions that enable quick expansion on already existing platforms.

“Embedded peripherals are crucial with regards to IoT deployment, where everything is connected, and the operator has to contend with widely different signals and form factors. This is when flexibility and compatibility really come into play” says Johnny Wu, manager, Intelligence Peripheral Appliance.

The M.2 form factor is instrumental for the next generation IoT applications as more and more platforms are adopting it as their main port. The company has launched M.2 solutions for embedded expansions, including LAN, display, serial, PoE, RAID, disk array, and SATA interface. The industrial grade expansion cards are tested and certified to withstand thermal, electrical and mechanical stress, resistant to shock and vibration and all support temperature from -40°C to 85°C, as well as incorporating hardware and software support.

For space-constrained applications such as small PCs and fan-less systems, this complete M.2 series includes 2242, 2260, and 2280 form factors that support both B and M key configurations, thus ensuring compatibility with the newest platforms.
