Kontron: German Engineered Motherboards for the Internet of Things (IoT)

Supplier Kontron

Kontron

Kontron stands as a leading provider of embedded computing technology, with its motherboards for the Internet of Things (IoT) being a testament to the precision and quality of German engineering. Designed and manufactured in Germany, these boards are built to the highest standards, ensuring reliable performance for a wide range of industrial applications. This commitment to quality is the result of over three decades of experience in developing motherboards, involving comprehensive product validation and testing to guarantee dependable operation under all conditions. Kontron’s extensive portfolio, ranging from compact Mini-STX to full-sized ATX form factors, caters to diverse markets including industrial automation, medical technology, and transportation.

A key advantage of choosing Kontron is their stringent lifecycle management and reliable product maintenance. Unlike standard desktop motherboards with lifecycles of 12 to 18 months, Kontron offers an extended lifecycle of up to seven years for its semi-industrial motherboards. This long-term availability is crucial for commercial applications that require significant investment in certification and engineering, as it minimizes the need for costly and time-consuming redesigns. Any necessary product changes are communicated to customers proactively through a meticulous lifecycle management process.

Kontron motherboards are equipped with a comprehensive feature and tool set, empowering partners and customers to modify, test, and produce their systems independently. These boards are designed for continuous 24/7 operation, even in extended temperature ranges and under high system loads. The product lineup includes various series tailored to specific needs, such as the “Extended Lifecycle Series” for semi-industrial applications and the “Industrial Motherboard Series” with special features for industrial requirements.

Underpinning Kontron’s product excellence is a robust technical support system. The professional support team has direct access to hardware and BIOS development experts, as well as on-site production, ensuring that customers and partners receive expert assistance. This dedication to support, combined with the longevity and quality of their products, results in a beneficial total-cost-of-ownership. Customers benefit from short lead times, minimal field failure rates, and reduced transportation costs within the EU, making Kontron a sound investment for long-term projects.
