Product Description:
Beckhoff manufactures the C9900-B506 PC accessory and is part of their C9 PC Accessory Series. This module is designed to expand the capabilities of the C6920 industrial PC by adding two PCIe slots. These slots can accommodate a variety of PCIe x1 cards, up to 190mm in length, allowing for significant expansion of the PC's functionality. This expansion can be crucial in applications requiring specialized hardware, such as high-speed data acquisition or dedicated network interfaces. The 190mm card length ensures compatibility with a wide range of commercially available PCIe cards, providing flexibility in system design. The C9900-B506 features a passive backplane, contributing to its reliability and thermal efficiency. Unlike active backplanes, which contain active components that generate heat and can potentially fail, passive backplanes simply provide a connection pathway for the PCIe cards.
The passive backplanes reduce the risk of failure and minimize heat generation, enhancing the system's overall stability, especially in industrial environments that can experience temperature fluctuations. The accessory integrates seamlessly into the C6920 housing, increasing its width by 70mm and depth by 18mm. This minimal increase in size ensures that the system's overall footprint remains compact, a crucial factor in industrial settings where space is often at a premium. The connectors of the plug-in cards are located on the top side of the PC, facilitating easy access and maintenance. The C9900-B506 requires an Intel 6th or 7th-generation processor and is compatible with Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016 operating systems. The 64-bit OS requirement ensures that the system can address a larger memory space, enabling handling complex and demanding applications.
The module also includes an onboard SATA RAID 1 controller, which provides data redundancy and enhances system reliability. RAID 1 mirrors data on two separate drives, ensuring that data is preserved even if one fails. This feature is critical in industrial automation, where data loss can lead to significant downtime and financial losses. Furthermore, the C9900-B506 supports Ethernet with 100/1000BASE-T, providing fast and reliable network connectivity. It offers DVI and USB Gen. 1 interface options for connecting peripherals and displays. The graphic adapter is integrated into the processor, optimizing system performance and efficiency. Wake Industrial provides a one-year warranty upon purchase of the C9900-B506, ensuring your investment's peace of mind and protection.
