Nighthawk RCU™ | Remote Interface Unit
Controller/Data Concentrator
The NightHawk RCU is an extremely rugged, compact, Intel® Atom-based, self-contained control unit that weighs only 4.5 lbs (2 kg). Its reduced weight, combined with a slim profile and natural convection/radiation cooling, makes the rugged control unit ideal for a variety of military, aerospace and commercial environments. The unit can dissipate up to 22 W at either +55°C in stagnant (non-flowing) air or up to 71°C with an optional low-pressure fan or baseplate.
Specific uses include as a data concentrator and remote interface unit in manned and unmanned, ground or airborne vehicles. It can also be employed in low SWaP data concentrator unit (DCU) and remote interface unit (RIU) applications. For military tracked and wheeled vehicle applications, the NightHawk RCU can provide condition-based maintenance (CBM) functionality to reduce preventative vehicle maintenance costs.
