Affordable 3-litre PC for demanding tasksThe Shuttle XPC slim Barebone XH310R is a real roomster considering its small footprint - one optical drive, two 2.5" storage drives and an M.2 SSD card can be installed into the robust steel chassis. In addition, it supports the powerful Intel® Core desktop processors with socket LGA1151v2. The built-in heatpipe cooling ensures the system runs quietly at maximum stability. Thanks to its great connectivity it meets the requirements of many applications that extends from office PC up to industrial applications. The system supports two displays with Ultra HD resolution, dual Gigabit LAN, four USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports and up to five serial ports. With this high level of efficiency and flexibility - who needs a bulky tower PC anyway? Remote Power-onIf because of space constraints the machine cannot be switched on by pressing the front power button, it can be started with a separate remote control. You will find an appropriate four-pin connector on the back panel of the PC (pitch 2.54 mm).HDMI 2.0The enhanced version of the popular HDMI standard permits even higher screen resolutions. 4K playback in resolutions of 3.840x2.160 and above promise breathtakingly sharp details. And the audio signal is of course still transmitted via the same cable – creating fewer cables.Dual network connectionIn this model two gigabit network controllers ensure maximum data transmission rates via load balancing and maximum availability via the failover function.Rapid system and program start-up thanks to NVMe supportSSDs are already very fast compared to hard disks. But what is possible thanks to M.2 modules with PCIe Express technology really takes your breath away. The NVMe modules process several gigabytes per second and thus ensure the system starts up in just a few seconds with noticeably shorter program start-up times.Always-on JumperThis machine is provided with a hardware solution to keep it permanently switched on (e.g. after a power outage). If you remove the jumper documented in the manual, the PC then starts as soon as the power supply is restored.High-resolution DisplayPortThe DisplayPort connector allows for connections with digital high-resolution displays. Depending on processor and display model resolutions of up to 4K/Ultra HD (3840x2160) can be achieved. Besides picture signal, DisplayPort cables can also lead digital sounds signals in excellent quality.The interface for the fastest of memory mediaInternal drives to be used inside this Mini-PC can transfer data at a speed of up to 6 Gbit/s. Hard drives thus run significantly faster and brand-new media technologies such as SSDs can use their full potential. Be sure to look for SATA 6 Gbit/s.6-channel audioWith the inbuilt sound card you can connect up to six speakers. Get your own personal surround-sound experience at home.Intelligent coolingShuttle's patented Heatpipe Cooling technology with variable speed control automatically ensures maximum system stability and quiet operation in this steel Shuttle Mini-PC. Instead of swirling around the chassis, as is the case with conventional solutions, the warm air is specifically transferred out of the chassis.Anti-theft protectionThe 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.The fastest connection to external peripheral devices available to dateThe 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.Fan-less external power supplyA 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.Intelligent fan controlThe Smart Fan system promises low operating noise with its large, slowly rotating fans, which generate a very large airflow and have automatic variable speed control.Pre-assembled cabling saves timeThe most important power and data cables are already routed and just have to inserted into the relevant components. This saves valuable time when setting up the system.Intel® chipset insidePlay it safe with the reliable chipsets from the world's largest chip manufacturer. Intel® chipsets have proven themselves over many years, have been presented with awards by the trade press and offer the best possible degree of compatibility.Just 2.5" HDDsAn 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.You can rely on SSDThis 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.For a longer life and more system stabilityAll the components of the highly integrated mainboard of this PC are fitted with modern solid capacitors, which offer six times the lifespan of normal capacitors.
