Installing the I/O Shield
NOTE
Systems based on this desktop board require that the I/O shield be properly installed to comply
with Class B emissions requirements.
The boxed desktop board comes with an I/O shield. When installed in the chassis, the shield
blocks radio frequency transmissions, protects internal components from dust and foreign objects,
and promotes correct airflow within the chassis.
Install the I/O shield before installing the desktop board in the chassis. Place the shield inside the
chassis as shown in the following figure. Press the shield into place so that it fits tightly and
securely. If the shield doesnt fit, obtain a properly sized shield from the chassis supplier.
