4.5.1 Airflow

WARNING:

Airflow is critical to the cooling of the CPU and other onboard

components. The chassis in which the IMBA-Q454-R10 must have air

vents to allow cool air to move into the system and hot air to move out.

The IMBA-Q454-R10 must be installed in a chassis with ventilation holes on the sides

allowing airflow to travel through the heat sink surface. In a system with an individual

power supply unit, the cooling fan of a power supply can also help generate airflow

through the board surface.

4.5.2 Dual RS-232 Cable with Slot Bracket

The dual RS-232 cable slot connector consists of two connectors attached to two

independent cables. Each cable is then attached to a D-sub 9 male connector that is

mounted onto a slot. To install the dual RS-232 cable, please follow the steps below.

Step 1:

Locate the connectors. The locations of the RS-232 connectors are shown in

Chapter 3.

Step 2:

Insert the cable connectors. Insert one connector into each serial port box

headers. See

Figure 4-10. A key on the front of the cable connectors ensures

the connector can only be installed in one direction.
