The module can be inserted in the 8-Bay Frame in either direction, allowing the inputs/outputs to be positioned either at the front or the back of the unit depending on the application.

There are no exposed PCBs as all modules are enclosed, and therefore protected against static shock, dust and general wear and tear. Gold-plated, redundant spring pins with magnetic retention deliver DC power to the modules, meaning no messy cabling and external power bricks are needed.
