3.17 MIC-A/P FMEC
The BLANK-FMEC sheet metal faceplate provides EMC emission control for empty FMEC slots. It also
provides a way to close off the EFCA area, thus allowing air flow and convection to be maintained
through the EFCA. You must install the BLANK-FMEC faceplate in every empty FMEC slot to maintain
EMC requirements of the system and proper air flow. Figure 3-17 shows the BLANK-FMEC faceplate.

Note For MIC-A/P FMEC specifications, see the “A.5.16 MIC-A/P Specifications” section on page A-26.
The MIC-A/P FMEC provides connection for the BATTERY B input, one of the two possible redundant
power supply inputs. It also provides connection for eight alarm outputs (coming from the TCC2/TCC2P
card), sixteen alarm inputs, and four configurable alarm inputs/outputs. Its position is in Slot 23 in the
center of the subrack EFCA area. Figure 3-18 shows the MIC-A/P faceplate and block diagram.
