Concurrent Technologies announced the launch of a new product, the ruggedised plug-in-card, Buddon. This postcard sized rugged board provides a technology upgrade for those customers who have deployed systems based on 3U CompactPCI. In particular, Buddon incorporates the latest technology to enable customers to meet more stringent security and processing needs.

Buddon has been designed to be backwards compatible with previous generations of CompactPCI cards, making it easier for system integrators to extend the life of their equipment with minimal risk and disruption. Based on a recent 11th Generation Intel Core Processor, Buddon provides equivalent performance at a lower power consumption compared to previous products making it the ideal choice to ensure reliable field operation in a wide variety of system configurations.
