Components
Processor and Storages
Processor
The A6602 uses an RMI XLR732 1GHz multi-core microprocessor as its data forwarding and
service processing engine.
Flash
The Flash size is 4 MB, of which 1 MB is used for storing the boot file— the BootWare program
and the remaining space for backing up the BootWare program and storing important system
parameters.
Memory module
The memory module is used for storing the data during system operation and caching the data
during data forwarding. The default memory size of the A6602 is one GB and the maximum
memory size is two GB. The A6602 provides two memory slots and you must insert two memory
modules of the same type and the same size.
The memory modules for the A6602 have two sizes:
DDR2 SDRAM-512MB
DDR2 SDRAM-1GB
