Product Description
The PhidgetSBC2 is a Single Board Computer with an integrated PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8. At its most basic, it can be thought of as a Phidget that you connect using a network cable instead of USB. The PhidgetSBC2 also provides six full-speed ports that allow you to use normal USB Phidgets over its network connection. This can extend the effective range of a Phidget from USB's maximum of 15 feet, to anywhere that your network reaches.

The PhidgetSBC2 exposes an easy to use interface for setting up and running custom applications on-board. This allows the PhidgetSBC2 to operate autonomously, without the need for a graphical interface or a remote connection at all times.

Product Features
• Single board computer running Debian with access to the full Debian package repository.
• Web based configuration and monitoring interface.
• Abundant on-board storage.
• Run custom programs on-board for autonomous operation.
• 6 full-speed USB ports with built in support for webcams, Phidget USB devices, and other USB devices..
• Integrated PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8.
• Ethernet port. Remotely use attached Phidgets from another computer anywhere over the network.
• Realtime clock with battery backup.
• Wi-Fi Adapter sold separately

Programming Environment
Support for C, C++, Java, .NET(Mono), Python, etc. can be added from the Debian package repository, as outlined in the product manual.
For more advanced users, the PhidgetSBC is an embedded computer that runs Debian GNU/Linux. We provide full shell access via a built-in SSH server, access to the full Debian package repository, and all of the standard command line tools expected on a modern Linux system.

An integrated PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 allows you to connect devices to any of 8 analog inputs, 8 digital inputs and 8 digital outputs. It provides a generic, convenient way to interface your PC and PhidgetSBC with a wide variety of devices and it operates exactly the same way as an external PhidgetInterfaceKit.
