Page 8: Chapter 3 Installation
These two items are shipped as a set, but must be installed individually into the FRM603 chassis frame. The AAB6214 rear connector panel occupies one card slot in the FRM603, and may be installed in any available slot in the chassis frame. Proper installation requires that the rear connector panel be installed before the circuit board. -
