Hardware Overview

 

This section provides an overview of the hardware features of NSMs. NSMs are

 

expansion options for switch and router models with an NSM bay. NSMs slot

 

into a base-unit switch or router and either directly provide additional WAN

 

interfaces, or provide expansion slots for Port Interface Cards (PICs).

 

Hardware descriptions for your switch or router, Uplink Modules, and PICs

 

can be found in their respective Hardware References. These documents can be

 

downloaded from www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software.

 

Safety and conformance information can be found in the Installation and Safety

 

Guide or Safety and Statutory Information booklet for your switch or router,

 

which can be downloaded from www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software.
