The A2 Series chassis is a high performance
design in a low cost 6U rackmount enclosure.
Feature rich, the A2 Series is a solid,
robust design which will meet the most
rigorous and demanding requirements. This
chassis is ideal for I/O intensive applications
such as telephony, data acquisition, Digital
Video Recording (DVR), high density web
server, back office server, firewall,
proxy server and VPN gateway applications
including collocation.
The enclosure is
constructed of 18 gauge steel, clear zinc
plated for corrosion protection and an
attractive appearance. The front panel
is attractively detailed and is of heavier
gauge than the chassis.
There is a huge amount
of drive space with the seven front accessible
5-1/4" drive bays. This allows for
a low cost RAID implementation using SCSI
or ATA drives. One external 3.5 inch drive
is also available.

A door covers and protects the drives.
Accessible behind the door is the power
and reset switches as well as the power-on
and drive activity LED's. The LED's are
visible through the door when it is closed.
Cooling is provided
by four 90mm 51CFM hot swap fans. The
thermal management board monitors fan
operation. The A2 Chassis
provides for mounting a standard Extended
ATX (EATX) motherboard up to 12 x 13-inches.
Depending on the CPU selection, up to
7 plug-in cards can be installed. This
chassis is perfect for mounting a server
class dual processor motherboard.
Power is provided
by rear mounted PS/2 style power supply.
Several power supply options are available
including redundant power.
