 Azonix successfully re-qualifies MIL-S-901D testing and MIL- STD-461E on the MP2030C product offering
Comments from the HMI Product Manager:
“We are sensitive to the balance between the Navy demand of long-term product support and the natural occurrence of obsolescence of components in the computer industry. Our design philosophy is modular to be able to adapt newer high-performance processors, components that go obsolete, or new devices without requiring a major design change.”
“Eight years after the launch of the MP2030C Azonix upgraded some key components in the platform. We re-qualified the system for shock and EMI/RFI. Our goal this time around was to push the limit and try to pass the light-weight shock test hard-mounted directly to the bulkhead as compared to using shock mounts. The ProPanel® systems are designed to meet extreme environmental conditions, therefore we continuously strive to push the capability to our customers benefit.”
