Hardware

Electrical

The DCM Controller automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100–127 and 200–240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. (See Table 1-2.)

Table 1-2. Electrical Specifications

AC voltage	100–127/200–240 volts
Maximum current	2A/1A
Frequency range	50/60 Hz

Environmental Guidelines

Table 1-3 lists the environmental guidelines for the DCM Controller.

Table 1-3. Environmental

	Operating
Temperature	5°C to 40°C (41°F to 122°F)
Relative humidity:	15% to 80% at 40°C (104°F)
(non-condensing)

Non-Operating

–40°C to 65°C (–40°F to 149°F) 20% to 90% at 65°C (149°F)

Maximum altitude	2 km (6,500 ft)	4.6 km (15,000 ft)

Acoustic

Noise Emission LwA=52 dB at virtual work space according to DIN 45635 T.19. (Geraeuschemission LwA=52 dB am fiktiven Arbeitsplatz nach DIN 45635 T.19.)

The DCM Controller has a USB port, which supports USB 2.0-compliant drives. However, the USB port does not support USB 3.0-compliant drives.

You use the USB port to back up and restore data and to re-initialize DCM Controller in the event of catastrophic failure. (For more information, see Appendix A, “Back up, Restore, and Re-initialize the HP Datacenter Connec- tion Manager (DCM) Controller.”)
