Power Budget Considerations
Total Power Budget for the Device
Power Budget for Line Modules (@ 9 W Used For the System) 41.5 W
Line Module Power Budget Remaining After One APE1808
Module (12 W) Is Installed
Line Module Power Budget Remaining After Two APE1808
Modules (24 W) Are Installed
USB Storage Devices
USB storage devices used with the RUGGEDCOM APE must have USB 3.0
Interfaces. Other peripheral devices, such as keyboards and mice, may have USB
2.0 or 3.0 interfaces.
SD Card Usage
Limit the usage of 3.3 V SD cards and use UHS-I type SD cards whenever possible.
eMMC speed limitation
The maximum speed of the on-board eMMC primary permanent storage device
is limited to DDR50 by the APE1808 BIOS. Any BIOS settings suggesting an eMMC
speed higher than DDR50 take no effect.
Before commissioning and for on-going maintenance of the RUGGEDCOM APE
module, apply the latest security updates from Debian or from Microsoft as per
the standard Windows® 10 Enterprise update procedure in line with the local
security policy of the deployed environment. For more information on applying
security updates from Debian, refer to the user documentation provided by
Debian or Microsoft.
