3.4.3. Storage Devices

A mezzanine card (cMC or cMCB-2RC) attaches directly to the system processor. 6U form
factor storage modules are supported when using the cBP-08R backplane.
There are two ways of supplying data storage with Kontron's product line.
1.
cMC : Mezzanine Card that is installed directly onto the processor board.
2.
cSM-DVD : 6U form factor storage module that is front loaded into the
CxP0816 chassis.

3.4.4. Power Supply

6U power supply modules featuring load sharing redundant mode and hot-swap capabilities
allow on-site replacements of defective module while the system remains powered.
A standard ATX power supply unit is also supported.

3.4.5. Fan Tray

The ventilation unit of the enclosure conforms to the global requirement of the system in
fully loaded configuration.

3.4.6. Installing the Board into a Bay

The cPCI-MXS64GX is mechanical Eurocard form factor boards. It takes advantages of the
IEEE1101.10 specifications that ensure a mechanical interchange capability between
different plug-in elements in sub-racks.
Due to the high-density pinout of the Hard Metric connector, some precautions must be taken
when connecting or disconnecting a board to/from a backplane:
1.
Rail guides must be installed on the enclosure to slide the board to the backplane.
2.
Do not use force if there is any mechanical resistance while inserting the board.
3.
Screw the front plate to the enclosure to firmly attach the board to its enclosure.
4.
Use the extractor handles to disconnect and extract the board from its enclosure.
