Introduction
Thank you for choosing the FW-8771. The new system
module integrates the newest Intel Xeon Processors,
codenamed Haswell, with the Intel C226 Series Chipset.
It supports up to 32GB of DDR3 system memory at
1600MHz on dual-channel DIMM banks. Intel Intel®
Turbo Boost Technology and Intel® Hyper-Threading
Technology (Intel® HT Technology) are also supported
in the system (you may need to enable these features in
the BIOS menu under CPU configuration settings)
The FW-8771 is equipped with advanced I/O capacity
which includes an RJ-45 console port, 2 PCIex8 (PCIe
Generation 3) golden finger connected directly to the
CPU for utmost network performance, 4 Serial-ATA
ports (comply with SATA Standard 3.0), a CFast slot, and
an OPMA slot, etc.
The system can add additional 16 LAN ports with 2
Etherent modules, proving a total of 24 LAN ports.
Moreover, these LAN modules can be configured with
Lanner Generation 2 or Generation 3 bypass or both
depending on the module specification.
Please refer to the chart below for a summary of the
system’s specifications.
