However, SMART Board 8000i-G4 series interactive flat panels can
support OPS computers that require active cooling from fans within the
interactive flat panel.
If an OPS computer requires more power than the SMART product was
designed to dedicate to an OPS computer, it may restrain your ability to
power specific units. Make sure the power supply requirements of the
OPS computer are met by the supply capabilities of the SMART product.
Otherwise the OPS computer will not function fully, and may not even
turn on.
Make sure the OPS computer is compatible with the SMART product's
video resolution and connection types.
OPS computers must comply with your area's regulatory requirements
and must also meet IEC 60950-1 certifications for Fire Enclosures.
