Notes:

  1. Hacom has acquired some of the remaining inventory of the EmergeCore IT-100. It is offered AS-IS, with only 30-day warranty on the hardware.
  2. To access the it-100 as a development platform, a low-power PCI VGA card with a PCI-riser and a USB keyboard are required. We have used the Diablotek VARX-8P ATI Rage XL 8MB PCI Video card from Microcenter successfully. 
  3. The EmergeCore IT-100  is a great complete platform for running pfSense, IPCop and M0n0wall. The inital offering is for computer geeks who prefer to tinker with the hardware directly.
  4. Images for installation on the IT-100: M0n0wall, pfSense, IPCop and Debian Squeeze, can be downloaded from the following URL:
    http://www.hacom.net/catalog/pub/it-100.
    We will also install these for a fee. Look for the installed software option below. If your favorite operating system is not listed, please contact support: support@hacom.net
  5. At the bottom of this page, there are some youtube tutorials on how to use the IT-100.
