· G&D ControlCenter-Digital-160
The back panel of the matrix switch can be equipped with up to 10 IO cards, two fan
boards and three power supply modules.
Operating the matrix switch requires at least one IO card, two fan boards and at
least one power supply module.
The components of the back panel have the following tasks:
The 10 ports of each
IO card (3)
let you connect the user modules or the target mod-
ules of the KVM system.
Each
fan board (4)
is equipped with six fans. The fans of the
Fan IN
board draw the
outside air into the device. The fans of the
Fan OUT
board blow the air out of the
device.
To protect the components in the housing from dust, a filter is placed in front of
the fans of the
Fan IN
board.
IMPORTANT:
Change the filters regularly. The time between changing the filter
depends on how much dust the devices are exposed to:
Strong exposure to dust:
1 month
Moderate exposure to dust:
3 months
Light exposure to dust:
6 months
Check the filter condition regularly. Tap the filter or use light blows of compres-
sed air to clean the filter. Change the filter at the latest after six months.
Caution!
Use original parts only!
