Safety Approvals
CE Marking
FCC Class A
FCC Compliance
This equipment has been tested and complies with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. If not installed and used in accordance with proper instructions,
this equipment might generate or radiate radio frequency energy and cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measurers:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Shielded interface cables must be used in order to comply with emission limits.

Safety Precautions
Before getting started, read the following im portant cautions.
1. Be sure to ground yourself to prevent static charge when installing the internal components. Use a
grounding wrist strap and place all electronic components in any static-shielded devices. Most
electronic components are sensitive to static electrical charge.
2. Disconnect the power cords from the NA-1301 Network Appliance Platform before making any
installation. Be sure both the system and the external devices are turned OFF. Sudden surge of
power could ruin sensitive components. Make sure the NA-1301 Network Appliance Platform is
properly grounded.
3. Do not open the system’s top cover. If opening the cover for maintenance is a must, only a trained
technician is allowed to do so. Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static
electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system unit
chassis for a few seconds. This will help to discharge any static electricity on your body.
When handling boards and components, wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most
electronic component stores.

Introduction
This chapter contains the general information and the detailed specifications of the NA-1301 Network
Appliance server. Chapter 1 includes the following sections:
General Description Mechanical Dimensions
Features I/O Outlets
System Specifications
1.1 General Description
The NA-1301 server is designed for network software solution providers those have data secure, voice
over IP, video streaming, network bandwidth controller and another networking appliance requirements
across this stable and reliable multiple LAN device.
It is a reliable and affordable, 1U- he ight uni t that r eq uir es only power and network connecti ons f or s etup.
There can be deployed up to three LAN ports combinations for customer selection in the maximum for
application.
The three LAN ports can be deployed to two kinds of combinations,
One is three gigabit copper connections, other one is two gigabit fiber connectors and one gigabit
copper connections.
NA-1301 has pretty good enclosure management interface to be implemented in the factory default. It
can support P.O.S.T (Power on Self Test) feature through hyper-terminal by console port. LCD module
function is available for customer coding also.
The encryption / decryption VPN co-processor security board is enhancement for network security
process performance. It can be deployed by a PCI 64-bit/ 66MHz expansion slot of the bare bone. The
CPU can be off load by this way.
And it has room space for one hard drive deployment. Customer can implement system log and
monitoring functions through this hardware specification. With its innovative mechanical and electrical
design, the NA-1301 server provides one PCI expansion slot for another specialize functions enabling.
