w

Do not overload
the PC by
installing add-in
cards that draw
excessive current.
The chassis is
designed to
provide 2 amps
(average) of +5 V
power for each
board or card in
the chassis. The
total +5 V current
draw in a fully
loaded chassis
(one with all
add-in card slots
filled) must not
exceed the total
number of slots
multiplied by
2 amps.
