Mixing WAN Feature Cards
Mixing WAN Feature Cards
The Cisco AS5350XM and Cisco AS5400XM universal gateways support only one type of WAN feature
card at a time. The feature cards that can be installed at one time are:
•Up to three T1 feature cards (any combination of 2-, 4-, or 8-port) or
•Up to three E1 feature cards (any combination of 2-, 4-, or 8-port) or
•One CT3 feature card or
•One CT3 feature card and up to two T1 feature cards (any combination of 2-, 4-, or 8-port)
The universal gateway software recognizes feature cards in the order of the slots they are in. For
example, a feature card in slot 2 is recognized before a feature card in slot 3. The system recognizes
whether there is a mix of WAN feature cards during both power up and OIR:
•During power up, the first WAN feature card recognized by the system is the only type brought up.
•If there are two or more WAN feature cards of the same type and one is hot-swapped with another
of a different type, the new one is not recognized.
In both situations, an error message will appear on the console that is similar to this example:
00:01:12:%CARRIER-2-T1_E1_MIX:Cannot mix T1 and E1 8PRI DFC cards in chassis, do not power
