Chapter 1: Product Overview Hardware Module Descriptions Processor Board Processor/Chip Set The terminal uses a Celeron processor (µPGA2 package), used with the Intel 440BX PC chipset. The 440BX chipset consists of the 82443BX System Controller and the 82371EB PCI ISA Accelerator, also called the PIIX4E.
Category 5 and the hubs must permit 100 or 10/100 MB/s operation. Although 10Base-T will operate on Category 3 twisted pair, or NCR “747” cable, an upgrade to Category 5 is required for 100Base-T. A customer desiring to use the terminal in an existing 10Base-T environment can do so and simply run at 10 MB.
Note: It is possible that other LAN PC cards may work; however, NCR does not certify all configurations. Remote Wakeup over the wireless network is not possible because the cards do not support it. An alternative is to use the system real-time...
Chapter 1: Product Overview 1-11 Depending on the OS environment, Remote Boot may be supported, but due to the slow network speed a large boot image may take an unacceptably long time to load.
