1.1 Introduction
FWS-2150 adopts the VIA C7/ Eden Processor, up to 2.0GHz with
400/800MHz Front Side Bus. (or onboard VIA Eden ULV 500MHz,
FSB400MHz). Moreover, the chipset is equipped with VIA CN700
+VT8237R. The system memory features 240-pin DDRII 400/533
DIMM socket total up to 1GB. It deploys five LAN ports that
consist of five PCI 10/100Base-TX Ethernet LAN ports with two
ports bypass function. FWS-2150 condensed appearance
features desktop form factor that fits nicely into a space-limited
environment.
This compact FWS-2150 is equipped with one ATA-100, two
SATA I and CompactFlashTM Type II connector with ATA mode.
In addition, it offers flexible expansion with network products and
features one Mini-PCI Type III expansion socket, two USB2.0
ports and one RS-232 console port on the rear panel. The
console port deploys console re-direction that increases the
network security via remote control. All of these designs provide
for a more user-friendly solution.

Chapter 2 Quick Installation Guide 2-2
2.1 Safety Precautions
The installation is intended for technically qualified personnel who
have experience installing and configuring system boards.
The equipment can be installed in a restricted access location (RAL)
only.
A restricted access location is a site location for equipment where
the following criteria apply:
01. Access can only be gained by service persons or by users who
have been trained on the restrictions and the precautions for this
specific site.
02. Access is by means of at least one of the following, special tool,
lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the
authority responsible for the location.
Safety Precautions:
Always completely disconnect the power cord
from your board whenever you are working on
it. Do not make connections while the power is
on, because a sudden rush of power can
damage sensitive electronic components.
Always ground yourself to remove any static
charge before touching the board. Modern
electronic devices are very sensitive to static
electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at
all times. Place all electronic components on a
static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis
