• The loss of battery power or a voltage drop triggers a tamper event and permanently renders
the coprocessor inoperable.
• Any short on the battery power distribution circuits causes a voltage drop and a tamper
event.
• Do not lay the coprocessor on or cause the coprocessor to come in contact with any
conductive surface.
• Do not strike the coprocessor circuits with metal or conductive tools.
• Use static-protective measures at all times when handling the coprocessor.
4767-002 Cryptographic Coprocessor (FC EJ32 and EJ33 for BSC; CCIN 4767)
Learn about the specications and operating system requirements for the feature code (FC) EJ32 and
EJ33.
Overview
The 4767-002 Cryptographic Coprocessor is a PCI Express (PCIe) generation 3 (Gen3) x4 adapter. The
secure-key adapter provides both cryptographic coprocessor and cryptographic accelerator functions in a
single PCIe card. The 4767-002 Cryptographic Coprocessor is suited to applications that require high-
speed, security-sensitive, RSA acceleration, cryptographic operations for data encryption and digital
signing. Additionally, the adapter is useful in secure management, use of cryptographic keys, or custom
cryptographic applications. It provides secure storage of cryptographic keys in a tamper-resistant
hardware security module that is designed to meet FIPS 140-2 level 4 security requirements. The
adapter runs in dedicated mode only.
FC EJ32 and EJ33 are identical cards and have the same CCIN of 4767. The different feature codes
indicate whether a blind swap cassette is used and the type of cassette. FC EJ32 is not a blind-swap
cassette, while FC EJ33 indicates a generation 3 blind-swap cassette.
