The Raptor ATX/2 is based on the Intel 440BX chipset, featuring an ATX platform industrial Pentium II motherboard. It supports single Intel Celeron PPGA (Plastic Pin Grid Array) processors up to 533 MHz enabling AGP, 66/100 MHz SDRAM concurrent PCI and Ultra DMA with 33 MB/s burst data transfer rate. It features a solid state flash device. It can be used for diskless workstations in harsh environments that are subject to shock and vibration. The solid state flash device is a Disk-on-Chip™ with a standard 32-pin DIP package and True FFS (True Flash File System) technology which can replace a standard hard disk that is often subject to data errors and easily damaged under these conditions.

The Raptor ATX/2 offers one AGP slot delivering a maximum of 532MB/s 2x transfer mode which is quadruple the PCI speed, reducing the contention with the CPU and I/O devices by broadening the bandwidth of graphics to memory. It also offers an improvement in 3D graphics performance.

Along with the AGP slot, the Raptor ATX/2 features four 32-bit PCI slots and three 16-bit ISA slots, two USB headers, ULTRA-DMA/EIDE capability allowing high speed data transfer, and complete on-board I/O. It supports three on-board DIMM memory modules up to a total of 768MB registered or 384MB unregistered SDRAM.

Another industrial feature on this APC design, is the on-board ethernet controller. It's based on the Intel 82559 10 Base-T/100Mbits controller with support for Wake-On-Lan function that allows remote station wake-up for maintenance and power management.

American Predator products are specifically engineered to operate under diverse temperature ranges, dust, vibration and shock conditions. APC guarantees product longevity of five to eight years of production life cycle for all designs.
