Advantech, a leading provider of certified computing systems and services, is pleased to announce UTC-315E/318E – a multifunctional interactive self-service terminal powered by a fourth-generation Intel Core i5-4300U processor, equipped with up to 8 GB of memory, and featuring a stunning TFT LCD 16:9 display. Precision engineered to support a wide input voltage range (12 to 30 V) for overvoltage protection and rugged reliability, UTC-315E/318E provides an all-in-one computing system aimed at markets that demand cost-effective high computing performance solutions. The removable frame offers substantial installation flexibility, with free-standing, panel/wall-mounted, and floor-standing kiosk options available. The high extendibility of the panel design supports the connection of additional peripherals, such asa5M camera, 1D/2D barcode scanner, RFID, smart card reader, and magnetic stripe reader, for greater system functionality and applicability. This combined with the fanless system design that prevents the accumulation of debris make UTC-315E/318E the ideal solution for both industrial and commercial applications.

Compact Lightweight Design Delivers Powerful Performance
Equipped with an Intel Core i5-4300U processor that supports Android, Windows, and Linux OS, the UTC-315E/318E interactive self-service terminals deliver superior computing performance with reduced power consumption. The 15.6”/18.5” 16:9 widescreen display with wide viewing angle makes the system suitable for use in digital signage, e-menu boards, and self-service kiosk applications. To ensure compliance with environmental regulations, the front panel is IP65 rated for water and dust protection. The system’s fanless design ensures quiet operationand further reduces the accumulation of dust and foreign contaminants.

Increased Installation Flexibility Supports Industrial and Commercial Applications
For most industrial and commercial applications, panel PCs used as interactive self-service terminals must be wall mounted or integrated with customized kiosks. However, with the addition of a removable frame, UTC-315E/318E can be easily employed for panel mount installation. The system also features a wide input voltage range (12 to 30 V), making UTC-315E/318E suitable for applications in both commercial spaces, such as offices and meeting rooms, and industrial spaces, such as factories and equipment rooms.
