Note: Varium C1100 compute adaptor is designed to be installed into a data center server, where controlled air flow provides direct cooling. If the cooling enclosure is removed from the adaptor and the adaptor is powered-up, external fan cooling airflow MUST be applied to prevent over-temperature shut-down and possible damage to the adaptor electronics. Removing the cooling enclosure voids the board warranty.

For adaptor specifications, dimensions, list of adaptor features, and block diagram, see the Varium C1100 Compute Adaptor Data Sheet (DS1003).
