Hardware Requirements

The hardware requirements for the CMM are as follows:

Catalyst 6500 series switch.

Cisco 7600 series router.

A Supervisor Engine 1, Supervisor Engine 2, or Supervisor Engine 720—The supervisor engine can have an MSFC, MSFC2, or MSFC3, but the CMM does not require one for configuration or operation.

Port adapters—You can install up to three T1, E1, or FXS port adapters into slots 1 through 3 on the CMM base module.

You can install up to four ACT port adapters into the CMM base module. (The internally located slot 4 is reserved for the ACT port adapter.)

Note You cannot mix T1 port adapters with E1 port adapters, but any other combination of port adapters is supported.

CMM module blank filler plate (WS-SVC-CMM-BLANK) for unused port adapter slots.
