UL certification granted for COMs

Until recently, UL certificates that were primarily accepted in the US, Canada and in other parts of the world were mainly available for systems. Now, with the implementation of UL certification for computer-on-modules (COMs), Kontron now provides OEMs with more security in selecting appropriate COMs and simplifies the procedure for its own UL certification.

According to research carried out by the company, Kontron is the first provider to UL-certify its COMs. The company received the Platnium Vendor Award for Embedded Boards at the 2004-2005 Board Vendor Awards presented by market research firm Venture Development Corp. (VDC).

All products with UL certificates for information technology equipment, including electrical business equipment, can be researched centrally at www.ul.com (file name: NWGQ2.E304278 for the US and NWGQ8.E304278 for Canada).
