Chapter 1  General Information

1.1  Introduction

The SPC-530MB / SPC-530BP, the PC/AT-compatible computer, is designed for high-reliability applica-
tions. Not only easily installed and maintained in mission critical applications and harsh environments, it
is also a high-end rackmount fault-resilient server PC. The SPC-530BP can be fitted with a 20-slot
PC-bus compatible passive backplane. The SPC-530MB can be fitted with an ATX motherboard. Both
the SPC-530BP and SPC-530MB provide one 400-watt ATX redundant power supply and three
hot-swap cooling fans. They accept up to six front-access half-height disk drives.

The SPC-530BP / SPC-530MB features an advanced fault detection and alarm notification system to
monitor its own hardware status. If your PC system shuts down without advance warning, this can be
dangerous and may cause considerable loss.
