The High-Performance Portable Computer Option Designed for Challenging Field and Mobile Applications

Power on the Go

When you add the SideKick portable option to our full-sized turnkey products, you have a fully-portable, completely self-contained unit that is ready to "pick up and go". The SideKick is built to take all of the rough-and-tumble beatings in the field. When remote events take you places covering many geographic areas for extended periods of time, like traveling for sports, shipping desktop systems becomes impractical, unreliable, and expensive. Compix offers the same robust broadcast quality performance as the fully featured systems in a portable form that is perfect for the demands of continuous live production. Take your workstation performance with you where you go, whenever you need it.

 

Built Tough. Built to Last.

The Compix SideKick portable option is engineered to withstand harsh environments while bringing portable power, efficiency, and flexibility to broadcast environments and other video applications. Our self-contained, portable workstations offer robust industrial-build quality with a reinforced, lightweight aluminum chassis. The exterior is coated with a non-glare, protective surface. The SideKick option is designed to put up with the drops, spills, dust, and grime of your mobile and field operations.

 

Performance On the Run

With the same internal components as our industry leading and award winning ConverG1 and CynerG2 systems, the SideKick portable option has all the power, performance, and reliability you have come to expect from Compix products. A full size 750 watt power supply, Intel multi-core processor, and the integrated 17 inch LCD screen offers a high-resolution flicker-free visual environment that easily compares to desktop monitors, complete with high-end 3D graphics capability. As with all Compix systems, all video i/O is SMPTE standards compliant.
