Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS

Installing a CSS 11800 Module

Module Slot Restrictions

Modules are restricted to specific slots due to bandwidth capabilities. The CSS 11800 chassis backplane is designed for specific modules to reside in their respective slots. For example, you cannot install a SCM in slot 2 because the backplane connector for slot 2 does not accommodate a SCM connector. Prior to installing a module, see Table 1-1for information on chassis slot usage.
