Introduction
Based on a new generation high-performance VIA VX900
chipset the FW-6436 offers a compact and convenient
system 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.

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 power
supply is removed.
Unpower the FW-6436 and remove the power cord.
1.
Unscrew 2 screws from the two sides and two screws2.
on the back of the top cover of the FW-6436 System.
Slide the cover backwards to open it.3.
Installing the Hard Disk
The system can accommodate one Serial-ATA disk (2.5” or
3.5”). Follow these steps to install a hard disk into the FW-
7565:
Unscrew the 4 screws on the hard disk tray to take out1.
the hard disk tray from the system.
Place hard disk on the hard disk tray and align the holes2.
of the hard disk with the mounting holes on the tray.
Secure the hard disk with 4 mounting screws on the3.
hard disk tray.
Connect the Serial-ATA power from the ATX power4.
supply unit and hard disk cables to the hard disk’s
power and hard drive connectors respectively.
Plug the Serial-ATA cable to the Serial-ATA Connector5.
on the main board.
Put the hard disk tray with the installed hard disk back6.
to the system and secure it with the mounting screws.

FW-6436 provides one CompactFlash slot slot. Follow the
procedures bellow too install a CompactFlash card.
Align CompactFlash card and the card slot with the1.
arrow pointing toward the connector.
Push the card to insert into the connector.2.
Installing the System Memory
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory that features
data transfer rates of 800 or 1066 MHz to meet the higher
bandwidth requirements of the latest operating system
and Internet applications. It comes with one Double-
Data-Rate Three (DDR3) Small Outline Dual Inline Memory
Modules (SO-DIMM) socket.
Align the memory module’s cutout with the the SO-1.
DIMM’s slot notch.
Install the SO-DIMM.2.
Note:
SO-DIMM installed must meet the following1.
speed requirement: DDR3 800 or 1066 MHz. Do
not install DIMMs with different speeds.
The motherboards can support a total memory2.
capacity of 4 GB in maximum.
