The DCM1100i is designed is specifically to be small and quiet. It adopts Intel® pBTX motherboard technology to enhance thermal management, system size and shape, and acoustics. In addition, the power supply features passive power factor correction (PFC), which allows the power distribution to operate more efficiently.
T h e d e s k t o p d e s i g n e d f o r d e s k t o p s
With the carefully place vent location, DCM1100i is can be place vertically or horizontally on office desktops, allowing you some muchneeded flexibility, In addition, this system can accommodate legacy
CRT monitors if need be.

The DCM1100i puts security first. The system features a Kensington lock and a pad lock, and it supports chassis intrusion detection to secure your hardware investment. Furthermore, the latest Intel technology provides added security for networking and administration function, and the tool-less chassis allows easy maintenance.
Note:
In order to install your new DCM1100i correctly, please read this user’s manual prior to unpacking and setting up the system.

Before unpacking your DCM1100i, provide a steady, level, clean surface located near a wall outlet. The computer should have enough space around it to allow airflow, especially near the rear fan. If the system does not have adequate ventilation, internal components can overheat and be damaged as a result.
Do not damage or destroy the computer box while unpacking.
Rather, save the box in case you need to ship the system in the future.
Make sure the following components are included in the box and check to see that they are in good condition. Contact your dealer immediately if a component is missing or damaged. unit
• AC power cord
• CPU heat sink

Active Management Technology (AMT) Recently, design teams at Intel studied and identified a number of today's high priority IT challenges. Those experts determined the top three issues to be: (1) Better asset management
(2) Reduced downtime (3) Minimized desktop visits. With this information in hand, they developed Intel Active
Management Technology, cross-platform technology designed to provide a real solution to these and other high priority
IT problems. Features and benefits of Intel AMT technology include: (1) Out-of-band
(OOB) system management, which allows remote management of platforms regardless of power on/off state or operating system (OS) state. (2) Remote troubleshooting and recovery, which significantly reduces desk-side visits, increasing the efficiency of IT technical staff. (3) Proactive alerting, which decreases downtime, minimizes time-torepair and can lead to increasing mean time between failures.
(4) Nonvolatile storage, which survives power outages and system rebuilds. (5) Tamper-resistant agents, which prevent users from removing critical inventory, remote control, software and patch distribution or virus-protection agents. (6) Remote hardware and software tracking, which eliminates time-consuming manual inventory tracking and human error, reduces asset accounting costs, and increases accuracy.
