RDS Strengthens Industrial Embedded Board Supply with Full Custom Configuration Services

At Review Display Systems (RDS), we supply rugged displays and embedded computing solutions, with comprehensive configuration and value-added services available across multiple markets.

As part of the Volex Group, we source and configure a wide range of industrial-grade single-board computers (SBCs), system-on-modules and motherboards for sectors including medical devices, defence, industrial automation, transportation, clean energy, and kiosks and retail. We focus on transforming standard boards into application-ready systems that meet demanding environmental, performance and regulatory requirements.

We provide an extensive range of services designed to reduce engineering time and minimise development risk. These include custom BIOS development, operating system loading and image creation for Windows IoT, Linux and real-time platforms, as well as soak testing to verify long-term reliability. We can also manage application installation and system configuration, ensuring boards are ready for deployment when they reach you.

Hardware customisation is also a key part of our offering. You can specify additional ports and I/O, upgraded industrial-grade memory and storage options, and bespoke enclosures or cases featuring custom logos and branding. These modifications allow us to adapt boards to specific form factors, thermal requirements and environmental protection levels, including IP-rated housings.

As part of the Volex Group, we also benefit from significant supply-chain capabilities. The group's global manufacturing network and strategic component management help support product availability, long product lifecycles and continuity of supply, while helping to mitigate risks associated with component shortages and geopolitical disruption. Design and prototyping remain centered in the UK, while volume production can draw on Volex's international manufacturing facilities.

By combining our technical configuration expertise with the supply-chain capabilities of the Volex Group, we can support customers requiring reliable, long-term embedded computing solutions for demanding industrial environments.
