Introduction
Chapter 1: Introduction
Based on a new generation high-performance VIA
VX900 chipset the FW-6486 offers a system with a 1U
rackmount chassis for secured data exchange and media
services. The chipset integrates the high-performance VIA
ChromotionHD 2.0 video processor, offering advanced
filtering and cutting edge post-processing to perform
ultra smooth decoding of MPEG-4, H.264, MPEG-2, and
VC-1.
Furthermore, you can take advantage of the integrated
security engines to the CPU to increase system
performance and throughput when doing the following
secure computations:
Secure Hash Algorithm • –SHA-1 & SHA-256 and AES
Encryption
RSA Public key algorithm • –the security engine can
accelerate public key generation enabling up to 900
signings of RSA 1024-bit per second.
Random number generation • –the engine can produce
truly random numbers at a sustained rate of 12 million
per second.
Prevention of worm executing and spreading during •
system run-time
The system also supports a variety of I/O interfaces
including 4 Gigabit Ethernet, 2 USB and 2 PCI expansion
slots.
Please refer to the chart below for a summary of the
system’s specifications.

Package Contents
Your package contains the following items:
FW-6486 Network Security Platform•
Power cable•
1 crossover Ethernet cable (1.8 meters)•
1 straight-through Ethernet cable (1.8 meters)•
1 RJ45 to DB-9 console cable•
Serial-ATA hard drive cable •
1 threaded screw set•
1 pair of ear bracket for mounting•
Installation environment precaution:
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a 1.
closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing
the equipment in an environment compatible
with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment 2.
in a rack should be such that the amount of air
flow required for safe operation of the equipment
is not compromised. Mechanical Loading Mounting of the equipment in the rack should
be such that a hazardous condition is not created
due to uneven mechanical loading.
Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment 3.
in the rack should be such that a hazardous
condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be 4.
given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit and the effect that overloading
of the circuits might have on over-current
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings
should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-5.
mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply
connections other than direct connections to the
branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
