Introduction
Based on a new generation high-performance OCTEON
network processors ( Models have CN5020 series dual core
MIPS processor), the MR-330A offers up to 2 cnMIPS64
cores on a single chip. The chipset supports a variety of
I/O interfaces including Gigabit Ethernet, USB and MiniPCI interfaces. The built-in encryption, TCP acceleration,
and QoS engine provide reliable security functions at top
speed. Owing to its highly-integrated hardware support of
queuing, scheduling and low latency for real-time traffic,
the device is even a perfect platform for high quality voice,
video and data services .
The Quick Start Guide will takes you through the basic
steps necessary to install your MR-330A System.
Please refer to the chart below for a summary of the
system’s specifications.

Hardware Setup
Preparing the Hardware Installation
To access some components and perform certain service
procedures, you must perform the following procedures
first.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury,
electric shock, or damage to the equipment,
remove the power cord to remove power from
the server. The front panel Power On/Standby
button (if there is one) does not completely shut
off system power. Portions of the power supply
and some internal circuitry remain active until AC
power is removed.
Unpower the MR-330A and remove the power cord.1.
Unscrew 2 screws from the two sides and two screws 2.
on the back of the top cover of the MR-330A System.
Installing a CompactFlash Card
MR-330A provides one CompactFlash slot slot. Follow the
procedures bellow to install a CompactFlash card.
Align CompactFlash card and the card slot with the 1.
arrow pointing toward the connector.
Push the card to insert into the connector.2.
Accessing the CompactFlash card3.

In the linux environment, you could access the CF card
with the following commands:
2
Slide the cover backwards and open the cover 3.
upwards.
MR330A# mount /dev/cfa1 /mnt/
MR330A# ls /mnt/
To put files on the CF Card, use the following procedures:
Connect the CF card. It will usually be assigned as the following 1.
device:
/dev/cfa1
Mount the CF le system. 2.
MR330A#mount /dev/cfa1 /mnt/
Copy program le(s) to CF. 3.
MR330A#cp hello.txt /mnt/
Unmount CF le system. 4.

Installing the Hard Disk
The system can accommodate one 2.5” Serial-ATA disks.
Follow these steps to install a hard disk into the MR-330A:
Unscrew the 4 screws on the hard disk tray to take out 1.
the hard disk tray from the system.
Place hard disk on the hard disk tray and align the holes 2.
of the hard disk with the mounting holes of the tray.
Secure the hard disk with 4 mounting screws on the 3.
hard disk tray.
Connect the Serial-ATA power (the SATA power 4.
cable is attached to the power supply unit) and data
cables to the hard disk’s power and drive connectors
respectively.
Plug the Serial-ATA data cable to the Serial-ATA 5.
Connector on the main board.
Put the hard disk tray with the installed hard disk back 6.
and fasten it to the system with the mounting screws.
