LinkBuilder ECS Modules 3-21
LinkBuilder ECS Modules
With the exception of the LinkBuilder ECS management modules
(types 3C12030 and 3C12031) all other LinkBuilder ECS modules
can be installed into the MSH chas sis by using a module
converter. See Installing/Removing LinkBuilder ECS Modules on
page 3-21. These LinkBuilder ECS modules will provide the same
functionality as they provided in the LinkBuilder ECS chassis.
ECS modules are also known as line cards .
To install ECS modules into the MSH chassis, you will need a
converter. There is a universal converter suitabl e for all modules
(you will need one converter for each module). The converter
allows the ECS modules to connect to the MSH backplane. Links
mounted onto the module converter allow you to implement the
bus selection feature found on an MSH module and to configure
the converter to operate with a local bridge module or any other
type of ECS module.
For details on the ECS modules you will need to refer to the us er
guide that originally accompanied the module.

Installing/Removing LinkBuilder ECS Modules

Due to the construction of ECS modules types 3C12012,
3C12013 and 3C12080, the modul e guides within the MSH
chassis must be adjusted before these modules can be installed.
Instructions for carrying out the modification can be found in the
information sheet that accompanies the module converter.
To install ECS modules, you will need a small, fl at-tipped
screwdriver.
