Deciding to leave the consumer market alone for now, Habey went ahead and developed a system suited for industrial application, namely the embedded system dubbed Habey WIT-1800.

While desktops and notebooks have a clear target end-user base, embedded systems are more task-oriented.

Mostly, they end up used, either alone or in stacks, as part of industrial applications that emphasize communication capability and space efficiency.

The new system that Habey created is powered by a combination between the ICH8M chipset and the Intel Atom N450 central processing unit.

What will first strike onlookers is that, despite its compact size, it still manages to cram four mini PCIe slots inside of it, as well as a pair of accessible SIM slots.

The product also comes with a VGA port that can output a resolution of up to 2,048 x 1,536 pixels.

There is also a Gigabit Ethernet port, a CF socket, a SATA port and dual SMA sockets for 3G extensions.

Speaking of 3G, such dual communication is possible to implement thanks to the aforementioned mini PCIe modules, although they can also be used for SSDs, WiFi and any other mini-PCIe device on the market.

Finally, should one so wish, the Atom N450 CPU can be replaced with a D410 chip and the Habey ICEFIN design makes sure to keep heat generation in check at all times.

The available operating system options are Windows Embedded, Windows 7 and Linux.

Basically, this compact system should prove to be an asset for such things as wireless communications, mobile/in-vehicle 3G network, 3G/Cellular-Based Digital Signage, 3G wireless routing or testing, fleet management and communication and mobile video surveillance and security.

Full information on the hardware that the newcomer is constructed out of can be found on the official product page that the company has added to its website.
