 Summary
APG43 is an evolution of APG system, provided with higher
modularity based at board level, which simplifies repair and spare
part handling. APG43 can be co-located in the same eGEM
magazine with APZ 212 55 .
APG43 duplicated processor boards are equipped with an AMD
Opteron single core microprocessor. Each of the duplicated hard
disks provides up to 147 GB data storage.
Flexible partitioning of the data disks ensures an efficient use of
disk capacity.
An optional alarm board for external alarms is available.
As well, an optional rewritable dual layer DVD is available as
external media.
The principal idea for this evolution was improve de capacity
comparing with the old equipment (APG40) and reduce totally the
footprint, where the functions and commands is the same than
APG40.
