Central Control Unit (CCU)
The heart of SASensor is the Central Control Unit (CCU), an “all-in-one-box” unit, consisting of a mainstream “off-the-shelf” Single Board Computer (SBC) and a number of fiber optic interface boards which functionally act as Ethernet switch.
The CCU is a modular unit with the following hardware properties:
- One scalable Single Board Computer with Flash (hard) disk
- Selectable number of boards with 7 Ethernet 100BaseFX ports
- One to max 3 backplanes with integrated wide range power supply powering the Ethernet boards and SBC
Flexible and open software environment
The SBC of the CCU runs the open real-time operating system ARTOS®. All required functionality can be installed directly or later as new functions become available.
The Central Control unit will replace all this!
