Enclosure
The metal chassis that holds input and output boards, a CPU board, and a

output boards, providing a total capacity of up to 64 input and 64 output
signal paths.
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
Electrical charges (such as static electricity) that can damage sensitive
components inside an enclosure. ESD damage could occur if you are not
properly grounded and not handling components correctly (see the
Caution
page inside the front cover of this manual for more details about
ESD).
Expansion/Control Slots
Two empty slots on the rear of an enclosure for future boards that will
increase functionality and add new features to your system. One is
located above the CPU and one is below it.
External Controller
Any device that can control the matrix switcher via the serial connector.
I
Input and Output Connectors
Attachment points on the rear of an 8Y-XL enclosure for devices that
