Within the FSN-1400 chassis, two card slots are dedicated (System and M/E). The
allocation of the remaining slots is flexible, as illustrated in the following table.
Because different combinations of cards can be installed in the FSN-1400 chassis, input
and output combinations are highly flexible. Refer to the following two sections for details:
• Input Flexibility
• Auxiliary Output Flexibility
Please note:
• Refer to the “Chassis Front” section on page 39 and the “Chassis Rear” section
on page 41 for detailed information on all chassis card slots.
• Refer to the “Card Descriptions” section on page 43 for in-depth information of
all cards and their capabilities.
