AXF-MINI Axcess Mini-CardFrame
Product Information
The AXF-MINI Axcess Mini-CardFrame can be used as a stand-alone control system or as an add-
on to existing Axcess or Axcent
2
systems. The stand-alone configuration uses an optional AMX
Enhanced Master card (AXC-EM) and up to three optional AXC control cards. The add-on
configuration uses up to three optional AXC cards and is connected via the AXlink data/power bus
along with control panels and AXB AXlink controllers. The MINI CardFrame features a new
backplane design incorporating all card server functions, eliminating the need for a dedicated card
slot. The CardFrame can be easily installed into a rack, shelf, or at a remote site to avoid costly
cable runs.
