Safety Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to ensure general safety:
z Keep the chassis area clear and dust-free during and after installation.
z Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could get caught in the
chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and roll up your sleeves.
zWear safety glasses if you are working under any conditions that might
be hazardous to your eyes.
zDo not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or
makes the equipment unsafe.
zDisconnect all power by turning off the power and unplugging the power
cord before installing or removing a chassis or working near power
supplies
z Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
z Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check
the circuit.
Operating Safety
zElectrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature may not
be adequate to cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures
without adequate circulation. Be sure that the room in which you
choose to operate your system has adequate air circulation.
zEnsure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis design allows
cooling air to circulate effectively. An open chassis permits air leaks,
which may interrupt and redirect the flow of cooling air from internal
components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical
circuitry. ESD damage occurs when electronic components are improperly
handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Be sure to follow
ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components to
avoid these problems.
zWear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin
contact. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the
metal part of the chassis.
zPeriodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which
should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

1. Product Overview
1.1 Product Introduction
Figure 1 - FW-8750B Outlook
Built around the Intel Q35 chipset, the FW-8750 is the High benchmark for
performance and throughput in a network appliance. Supporting Quad-Core
/Dual-Core/Single-Core series processors in LGA775 socket the FW-8750
delivers fantastic performance per Watt.
The optional Cavium Nitrox CN1610 processes high-level IPsec and IKE,
IPv6, SSL and Wireless LAN security protocol macro commands, that reduce
the host I/O traffic and dramatically offload system processors to increase
the total system throughput.
With one expansion module, Two unbuffered Dual-channel DDRII RAM
Dimms, the FW-8750 offers customization now and plenty of headroom for
hardware expansion in the future. Moreover, Lanner provides full-service
product customization by working with you from drawings to samples to
mass production to create a product that meets your exact specifications.
