Industrial Automation & Defense Computing Solution – GE VME-7671-421000 | VME-7671 Series
Where This Product Is Used
The GE VME-7671-421000 Single Board Computer is engineered for mission-critical embedded computing environments where reliability, real-time performance, and long service life are non-negotiable. Typical deployment scenarios include:
- Industrial Process Automation: Acts as the central processing node in DCS (Distributed Control System) architectures, managing I/O coordination, PID loop execution, and inter-subsystem communication in oil & gas, chemical, and power generation plants.
- Defense & Aerospace Systems: Deployed in ruggedized VMEbus chassis for radar signal processing, avionics data acquisition, and mission computer applications requiring MIL-grade environmental tolerance.
- Power Utility SCADA: Serves as the real-time controller in substation automation and energy management systems, interfacing with RTUs and IEDs over serial and Ethernet backplanes.
- Semiconductor & Precision Manufacturing: Embedded in wafer inspection equipment and CNC motion controllers where deterministic cycle times and high-speed data throughput are critical.
- Transportation & Rail Control: Integrated into train control management systems (TCMS) and signaling infrastructure requiring continuous 24/7 operation.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Is the VME-7671-421000 compatible with GE Fanuc Series 90 PLC systems?
A: The VME-7671-421000 is a standalone VMEbus SBC and is not a direct plug-in replacement for GE Fanuc Series 90 PLC racks. However, it can be integrated as a co-processor or communication gateway in hybrid architectures. Contact us for application engineering support.
Q: What RTOS is pre-installed on this board?
A: Units are typically shipped without a pre-installed OS image. VxWorks and LynxOS BSPs are available from GE/Wind River. We can assist with BSP sourcing inquiries.
Q: Can this SBC replace an older GE VME-7671 variant in an existing chassis?
A: In most cases, yes — the VME-7671 series maintains backplane pinout compatibility across sub-variants. Confirm firmware and OS version compatibility before hot-swapping in a live system.
Q: Do you offer a warranty?
A: Yes. Konmask.com provides a 90-day functional warranty on all tested units. Extended warranty options are available upon request.
Q: Can you supply multiple units for a plant-wide upgrade project?
A: Yes. We support project-quantity procurement. Contact us with your project BOM for volume pricing and phased delivery scheduling.
