ForeFront chassis architectures

The Model 6511RC can be installed in the following ForeFront cPCI chassis:

Model 6476 6U chassis

Model 6676 9U chassis

ForeFront Model 6476 6U cPCI chassis

The ForeFront Model 6476 6U cPCI chassis provides 8 slots for installing cPCI processor blades (see figure 7). The Model 6476 chassis accepts up to two Model 6511RC blades, installed in the fabric slots (designated by a yellow blade guide). Using the H.110 TDM and PICMG 2.16 packet busses residing in the chassis mid-plane, an installed Model 6511 can communicate with the other blades installed and operating in the remaining slots.
