Module Placement and Rules
The DFE-Gold modules can be installed in a Matrix N3, Matrix N7, or Matrix E7 chassis.
The slot locations in the three chassis are identified in Figure 3-5 along with five module
configuration examples.
To ensure proper operation of the system, consider the following examples and rules for
module placement in either chassis.
Example 1 (Figure 3-5, A)
Shows one module installed in the chassis. If the chassis is populated with only one
4xxxxx, it must be installed in slot 1.
Rule: If only one 4xxxxx is installed in the chassis, it must be in slot 1. Always install a
4xxxxx in slot 1 of the chassis.
