Rackmount LCD Monitors Built for Military Applications

by Mark Lovett on February 11, 2012

Rackmount LCD monitors and keyboards designed for military aircraft, ground vehicles, surface ships or submarines need to be compact, lightweight, and most of all, built tough enough to withstand extreme operating environments.  Trenton offers two unique solutions for government & defense programs.

The TKM1502 is a rugged rackmount monitor and keyboard that features a watertight NEMA 4 optically bonded 17″ LCD Monitor and NEMA 4X backlighted keyboard with built-in mouse housed in an all-aluminum 1U rackmount enclosure.

The shallow 17″ depth is ideal for transit case applications, in addition to airborne, shipboard and submarine deployments.

Integrating the LCD monitor, full keyboard and mouse simplifies hardware mounting and cable routing issues while the clamshell enclosure design allows for additional rackmount components in space-constrained environments.

The Trenton TKM1503 features a rugged NEMA 4 sealed 17″ LCD display with resistive touchscreen, as well as a backlighted NEMA 4X keyboard.  Utilizing a touchscreen provides operators with the ability to interact directly with elements displayed on the monitor, eliminating tedious keystrokes.

TKM1502 and TKM1503 Features Include:

  • Crisp 17″ LCD flat screens with resolutions up to 1280 x 1024
  • Wide color range support for up to 16 million colors
  • Super bright monitors support 250 NITS cd/m2 with 350:1 contrast ratio
  • Fast monitor response times of 5 to 20 (Tr/TF) (ms)
  • Space-saving rackmount drawer design built for military deployments

Transit case computing is required for many military applications.  Offered in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, this architecture provides critical rackmount computer systems with the level of protection required in extreme field deployments.

Combining the TKM1502 or TKM1503 with a low profile system, such as Trenton’s 2U TRC2002 rugged rackmount computer or MIL-STD-810 certified TMS2700 rackmount military computer, creates a high-performance portable computing solution.

For compute-intensive applications, such as video processing or image stabilization, Trenton’s TCS4501 rugged rackmount computer features NVIDIA Tesla C20-series GPUs in a shallow 20″ depth chassis that accommodates up to eight hot-swap, front-access hard drives and choice of single board computer.

Trenton offers a wide range of rugged and MIL-STD-810 military computing solutions, each one built to your exact specifications and designed to handle adverse shock & vibration, temperature, EMI, dust and high-humidity environments.
