Over the last 12 months, Arcom has aggressively expanded its range of embedded hardware products based on x86 embedded PC and ARM based XScale architectures, and continues to add further options to the selection of ready-to-run operating system development kits.

Arcom's strength is the ability to offer complete embedded solutions combining cost effective board level products with a choice of the leading embedded operating systems, built into CE compliant enclosures.

Arcom also offers a complete design and build service to create and manufacture cost effective custom solutions.

The European market for embedded boards, system solutions and industrial communications products is forecast to achieve good growth in 2004 and by working with a well established company, Arcom is able to leverage its Cambridge based design, manufacturing and sales capabilities with the field sales and technical support skills of Antycip.

"Arcom is well placed to expand its customer base and achieve significant sales growth within the French market", said Glen Middleton, Managing Director at Arcom.

"Our objective is to further increase our design wins in France through the strengths of the Antycip field sales team and also to provide better support to existing customers".

Arcom is the largest UK provider of commercial-off-the-shelf embedded boards serving the PC/104 and EBX SBC markets and also one of the leading suppliers of industrial 19in rack mount systems for use in transportation, communications and OEM machine applications.

"Arcom's product range is complemented by the software development tools and specialised industrial computer boards already offered by Antycip", said Michel Pronier, Directeur General Antycip.

"By combining the software development and simulation tools with a broad range of hardware products, we can offer the widest selection of embedded solutions in the industry".
