cPCI-6965 Notes: 1. ADLINK-certified thermal design. The thermal performance is dependent on the chassis cooling design. Forced airflow with 16CFM is required. Temperature limit of optional mass storage devices may affect the thermal specification. 2. The hard drive limits the operational vibration. When applica- tion requires higher specification for anti-vibration, it is recom- mended to use flash disk such as CF or USB flash disk module.
