The ONYX-170/190 are based on Intel Pentium M 1.1GHz processor and support 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMM up to 1GB (DDR266/333).  For versatile medical environments, the ONYX-170/190 provides flexible expansion interfaces which are PCI and mini PCI for further expansions.  The ONYX-170/190 also offers integrated optional functions in the medical stations, such as Smart Card Reader Security, 802.11g Wireless antenna for data transmission, and optional Mini PCI capture card (supports non-DICOM to DICOM CAM).

Flexible I/O expansion is another key feature of the ONYX-170/190.  The ONYX-170/190 equip 4 COM ports (3 RS-232 and 1 RS-232/422/485), 7 USB2.0, 1 Parallel port, 1 S-Video out and 1 S-Video in (optional).  Furthermore, these models accommodate optional Smart Card Reader, WLAN, DVD or Slim CD and standard equipment—8-in-1 Card Reader on the side panel. Medical practitioners can buy these units according to their needs and specifications.

“ONYX-170/190 are multi-functional medical stations.  They can not only be applied to the high-end ICU or OR systems, but also the low-end nursing care applications.  In addition, ONYX-170/190 passed medical certifications, such as UL/EN 60601-1 and ISO 13485.  AAEON developed the medical products in terms of jointing alliance with alpha side customer to confirm the quality of medical level products” -- AAEON product manager of Panel Appliance & Automation Division.
