UEI’s Cube, RACKtangle® and FLATRACK™ I/O chassis are compact and rugged data acquisition (DAQ) interfaces, ideally suited for a wide
variety of industrial, military, aerospace, energy, laboratory DAQ and control applications. Each Cube/RACKtangle chassis includes a CPU, real-
time OS, Ethernet interface and slots allowing the installation of I/O boards. All our boards are compatible with all of our chassis options. With
more than 60 I/O boards available, we’re sure to have just what you need. UEI supports all popular Windows, Linux and Real-time operating
systems. Our software suite provides a simple, universal API and supports all common programming languages. Our Cube/RACKtangle chassis
fully support an extensive array of application packages including LabVIEW, MATLAB, Simulink and more.
Please note that PowerDNA® (Distributed Networked Automation) refers to our unique chassis. Cubes are designated with a “DNA” prefix, RACKtangles a “DNR” prefix, and
FLATRACK a “DNF” prefix. UEINet™ is our single slot cube. “MIL” designates a chassis designed to meet military-grade specifications MIL-STD-704/1275/461/810.
