Compulab is unveiling Airtop, a revolutionary fanless desktop PC, capable of dissipating 200W by a novel silent cooling-system that generates natural airflow using no moving parts. FanlessTech.com – the definitive source for fanless-computing news – wrote “Airtop is a technical marvel, an absolute dream come true. The game-changer we were waiting for.”
Airtop is an extremely versatile platform:
All Airtop models come with a 5 year warranty.
Passive cooling is silent, reliable and requires no maintenance. Airtop’s unprecedented passive-cooling capacity is achieved by a patent-pending heat-exchange system that stimulates airflow without moving parts.
“Compulab’s key corporate-value is innovation” said Gideon Yampolsky, Compulab CEO. “For several years we have been researching a new concept of natural air-flow (NAF) cooling and for the last 3 years we developed Airtop as a practical implementation of the technology. It is noteworthy that Airtop’s cooling capacity surpasses that of similar active cooling desktops. However, the real breakthrough in NAF technology is its scalability. Unlike conventional fanless cooling that scales with surface area, NAF scales with volume, making it an effective solution for many real-world cooling problems.”
Airtop is a compact 7.5 liter desktop, yet its 200W power-envelope allows incorporating not only a high performance desktop processor, but also a full-height professional graphics card – a combination that provides unparalleled performance for a small-form-factor PC. “We designed the Airtop motherboard from the ground up to maximize performance, reliability and functionality” said Yuval Sela, Airtop hardware architect. “Every aspect was considered starting from thermally-optimized component placement, redundancy of power, networking and storage up to making Airtop’s interior completely cable-free for easy servicing.”
A workstation is essential for high productivity but conventional workstations tend to be bulky, noisy and distracting. Airtop’s silent-cooling, high performance and small dimensions make it an ideal, distraction-free workstation that dramatically improves the work environment quality. The industrial design is focused on appearance, ergonomics and usability. Airtop-W is smaller than other SFF workstations, with a narrow silhouette and an integrated OLED Monitor displaying real-time system information. Airtop-W is designed for easy in-place servicing by tool-free clamshell-opening that does not interfere with connected cables.
Airtop-S is a capable small-footprint server that can be deployed in extreme conditions.
Server features:
RAS features:
Reliability: Maintenance-free passive cooling, dual power supply, ECC RAM, RAID support, TPM, hardened all-aluminum housing
Availability: 6x LAN + WiFi + cellular, 3 serial ports, industrial grade motherboard with power and temperature sensors
Serviceability: Tool-free opening, detachable hard-disks-cartridge, easy access to RAM and extension cards
“Compulab believes users should have the freedom to fit their computer to their exact needs, and Airtop is our most user-friendly computer to-date” said Irad Stavi, Chief Product Officer at Compulab. “It was very important to us to allow users to choose hardware, install and upgrade it at will. Too often, passive-cooling stands in the way of easy service, so Airtop is noteworthy for addressing the challenge of excellent serviceability of a fanless system.” Airtop has the disks, memory and extension cards neatly arranged for easy tool-free access. All Airtop models are available Barebone or pre-installed with Linux Mint or Windows. Airtop is also available as a DIY kit.
Airtop samples are available now for reviewers and select business customers. Compulab accepts pre-orders for Airtop models with supplies starting in Q1’16. Models available initially:
