Description and Installation Requirements
Pairs a working transponder or muxponder card/port with a
protect transponder or muxponder card/port. The protect port
must be on a different card than the working port and it must be
the same card type as the working port. The working and protect
port numbers must be the same, that is, Port 1 can only protect
Port 1, Port 2 can only protect Port 2, etc.
A splitter protection group is automatically created when a
TXPP_MR_2.5G or MXPP_MR_2.5G card is installed. You can
edit the splitter protection group name.
