Replacing Filler Panels and Backplates 83
Figure 4-4 Securing the Filler Panel
Backplates
Your system uses three types of slot backplates, accessible from the rear of
the chassis:
■ Blank Backplates: Used as follows:
■ To cover all unused chassis slots.
■ To cover slots in which 10/100 Ethernet modules reside. Covering
Ethernet slots is necessary because connection to a 10/100 Ethernet
module is achieved through the RJ-21 Champ connectors fixed on the
rear of the chassis for each slot, 1 through 11.
■ DOCSIS Module Backplates: Used to connect to all DOCSIS and
EuroDOCSIS modules that reside in chassis slots 2 through 12.
■ Fiber Module Backplates: Used to connect Gigabit Ethernet and POS
modules that reside in slots 2 through 12.
Slot 1 is shipped DOCSIS/EuroDOCSIS ready with a permanently fixed
DOCSIS module backplate attached to the back of the slot. Note that you
cannot install fiber modules in slot 1.
