All cards are modular and hot-swappable.
The 6RU chassis supports:
~
14 front cards, including required and optional cards.

An internal "midplane" architecture allows cards to be plugged in from both the
front and rear of the chassis.
There are no active components on the midplane or on the plug-in rear I/O cards.
The front door provides a seal for air flow and chassis cooling. There are no
controls on the door, but two status LEDs are provided. Refer to the
