D240jct-u And D240jct; What's The Difference

[madwhit]

We are needing to expand our IVR but the boards we use, D240JCT-T1, are no longer available from Intel. We have found someone who has some D240JCT-T1 U boards. Because of customer deadlines we do not have the time to learn how to use new boards. We were told that the U boards should work fine, but I would really like to know what the difference is before purchasing them. I found a site that said the D240JCT U boards can be used in either a 3.3 volt slot or a 5 volt slot where as the older boards require a 3.3 volt slot. Is that the only difference?

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Don.

I am not an expert, but older motherboards and backplanes use 12v and 5v. 3.3v is for more modern boards. I would say the older cards use 5 and 12, not 3.3v.

If you can use these boards depends upon your motherboard or backplane and sbc and if your power supplies put out 3.3v.

 

I have a 4u 20 slot industrial server with a dual Celeron cpu sbc and I know that system uses only 12 and 5v, plus and minus.

 

Hope this is of some help.
