The 1200-nit high brightness display makes IDK-2108 visible even under strong ambient light. IDK-2108's wide temperature operation of -20° C ~ 70° C and its low power consumption of just 5.35W make the device able to withstand all kinds of outdoor environmental conditions and guarantees 24/7 operation. What's more, Advantech also provided compatible LVDS and backlight cables so customers saved time on cable customization which allowed them to just focus on their application development.
