For decades, General Digital’s SlimLine display-keyboard family has been the gold standard for rack mount HMI equipment, being deployed in countless defense and other critical environments. Leveraging this rich history of design expertise, the SlimLine Commercial (SLC) integrates quality, non-ruggedized components into a system perfectly tailored for server rooms, simulation, training, and lab environments, as well as other low-shock applications.

The SLC combines features you’ve come to expect from General Digital (i.e., durable lightweight aluminum enclosures, ergonomic keyboard/pointing device design, quality components, configuration management) with a more cost-effective design, ensuring a reliable system that will keep your budget in the black. Manufactured at our USA-based facility, the SLC is compliant with all TAA and FAR Buy American regulations.

    The 1U and 2U high (1.75″ and 3.50″) rack mount enclosures are constructed from a combination of steel and aluminum (the 17.3″ model is all aluminum), providing a cost-effective, lightweight housing that can be used in most commercial and light-industrial applications.

    Use of continuous-friction hinges permits the display to be user adjusted over a usable range of more than 90°. A pair of adjustable chassis slides facilitate rack mounting and ease of operation.

    Interface connectors for the keyboard, pointing device and input power are located on the rear of the device.

    Optical Characterization Services (2:16)

    Unlike your phone, a display’s position cannot easily be adjusted to increase readability in direct sunlight. General Digital’s Optical Characterization Services take the guesswork out of quantifying how your display will perform under sunlight conditions. The following video explains the process in detail.
