Boards on Their CompactPCIe Systems
One Stop Systems, Inc. today announced it has agreed to purchase
the Embedded Products division of SBE, Inc. As a recognized leader

Systems will hire the current SBE Embedded Products Division employees.
“The SBE communication products compliment One Stop Systems’ product
offering of CompactPCI and passive backplane products by adding T1/E1,
Gigabit Ethernet, encryption and intelligent carrier boards,” said

synergies that the combined product lines provide. They look forward
