Half-Wide Modular Slots
The chassis has four half-wide modular slots that accept pluggable, port cards that can expand the capability
of the switch. For more detailed information about the modular port cards and their installation, see the
"Installing the Modular Port Card" chapter. The chassis is delivered with modular slot blank covers already
installed, which must remain installed if the port cards are not used. The slots are numbered as shown in the
following figure.
