How to Install or Remove an MSC
An MSC fits into any available MSC slot and connects directly to the midplane. If you install a new
MSC, you must first remove the MSC impedance carrier from the available slot.

Note
The other version of the MSC, the ASR-MSC-B, is similar in appearance. The primary difference is the
ASR-MSC-B is a flat design, instead of modular.
