This device is classed as a technical information
equipment (ITE) in class B and is intended for use in
living room and office. The CE-mark approves the
conformity by the EU-guidelines:
- EMV-guideline 89/336/EWG electromagnetic tolerance
- LVD-guideline 73/23/EWG use of electric devices
within certain voltage-limits
Notes:
(1) Overclocking Warning
Please note there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting the setting in the BIOS or using third-party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability or even cause damage of the components and devices of your system. It is done at your own risk and expenses. Shuttle cannot be held liable for any damage arising thereof.
(2) Teaming Mode
The teaming function allows you to group both available network adapters together to function as a single adapter - a method of creating a virtual LAN. The benefit of this approach is that it enables load balancing and failover.
(3) The Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)
is required when booting from hard disks larger than 2.2 TB under Windows 64 bit operating systems such as Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008/2003 SP1.
(4) Optional Wireless LAN module
This XPC supports an optional WLAN extension which consist of a half-size Mini-PCIe card with IEEE 802.11n functionality and an external antenna with appropriate 30cm antenna cable.
(5) mini-SATA (mSATA)
Not to be confused with the "micro SATA" connector, is a newer industry standard which converts the electrical SATA interface (1.5 or 3.0 Gbit/s) to the pysical "Mini PCI Express" mini card form factor. Applications include mobile devices that require a smaller solid-state drive.
(6) Right Front USB port with Quick Charge feature
The USB port on the right side of the front panel (marked with a flash symbol) is not just an ordinary USB port, it also supports the Apple iPhone/iPad quick charge features (2A) under Windows XP and Windows 7. The normal charge 500mA applies to other mobile devices. When system in S5 mode (soft off), fast charger can support both Apple and Android products.
