The Shuttle XPC slim Barebone DX30 is the successor of Shuttle's XS35/XS36 range. This fanless Slim PC barebone with an energy-efficient Intel Celeron J3355 "Apollo Lake" processor is suitable for building particularly slim nettops with drives and operating system as well as for pure network-based applications in client/server environments. The integrated graphics is based on Intel's powerful Intel HD Graphics 500 (9th gen) that supports hardware acceleration for 4K video encoding/decoding with H.265 and VP9. Combined with SSD memory you will obtain a fanless and virtually noiseless PC which is suitable for continuous 24/7 operation. HDMI interface Goodbye cable spaghetti! Modern flat-screen TVs and large-format TFT screens can be connected to this Mini-PC with just a single thin cable. Often the audio output is also transferred in brilliant quality via the HDMI cable. High-resolution DisplayPort The DisplayPort connector allows for connections with digital high-resolution displays. Besides picture signal, DisplayPort cables can also lead digital sounds signals in excellent quality. Low energy consumption Thrift is a virtue. In terms of power consumption this Mini-PC sets an example. It is not just good for the environment but for your pocket, too. Fanless and whisper-quiet The fanless technology used in this PC means it is incredibly quiet. Doing away with these mechanical components also reduces the number of wearing parts, making the machine more durable and stable. You can rely on SSD This is where an energy-saving "Solid State Drive" should be used. This drive technology guarantees extremely short access times, the highest data transmission rates and considerably lower energy consumption compared to conventional hard disks. SSDs have no mechanical components at all, are therefore subject to less wear and tear and consequently benefit from a longer service life. Multiformat card reader At last – no more searching for missing digital camera leads. Simply insert the memory card and you can access all stored photos and videos immediately. Anti-theft protection The Kensington Lock forms part of the anti-theft system. As with many other Notebooks, this Mini-PC can also be safely locked, ensuring long-term enjoyment from your Shuttle product. Fan-less external power supply A highly effective external power supply provides the Shuttle Mini-PC with its energy. And since it works without a fan, it is completely noise-free. Connections without all those annoying cables Data is transferred by WLAN completely without cables. Accessing the Internet and local network resources (e.g. printers) is now child's play when within range of an access point/hotspot. Just 2.5" HDDs An extremely compact PC housing offers less space for drives, that's why this Mini-PC uses slimline 2.5-inch hard disks. The advantage of this is that there's less noise, less heat generated and reduced power consumption. However small hard disks in a small housing does not have to mean less memory. Modern 2.5" HDDs are every bit as good as their 3.5" brothers. Optimal air flow Warm air is transported out of the chassis by means of cleverly arranged components, which enables a large number of parts to be cooled simultaneously in the air flow. At no time can heat build up and adversely affect the stability of the system. The fastest connection to external peripheral devices available to date The USB 3.0 connectors of this model allow for data transfer of up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s). This enables external devices such as USB hard disks to be connected and run at nearly the same speed as their internal siblings. USB 3.0 is downward compatible so that also devices of previous USB generations can be hooked up. Communication in the fast lane The integrated gigabit LAN chipset opens up completely new possibilities for communication with no restriction on the speed of data transfer. Say goodbye to information bottlenecks, whether in the company network or for home Internet access.
