The Avaya Multiservice switches provide a redundant backplane to
ensure that should a Supervisor module, Switch Controller, or fabric
element fail, it will continue to forward data properly. The
redundant components are available as separate options.
Controllers and Elements are located at the rear of the switches.
When the redundant controller and element are installed, the
backplane consists of the following parts (Figure 7-1or Figure 7-2):
One Primary Controller
One Redundant Controller
Six Active elements
One Redundant element
