Understanding Test Units
The drawings below show the three MPA chassis designs, each with an example
configuration of 4x MPM-10G cards in Slot 1 – Slot 4, and 1x MPM-100G card in Slot
5, and the 3rd Generation MPA chassis shows 1x MPM-100AR card in Slot 6.
MPM Test Modules and their Slot Locations
(Drawings not to scale)
Notice the slot locations, in relation to the tab names in the GUI (S1-P1, S2-P1, etc.)
In the examples above, the 1st and 2nd generation MPA chassis units have an AMC
Processor located either below or above the Slot 1, depending on the chassis, leaving
five additional slots for the MPM test modules. The 3rd generation MPA chassis unit
however includes an SCM-210 card that replaces both the MCH card and the AMC
Processor, freeing up an additional MPM test module slot.
By default, the GUI refers to each MPM test module Slot # as "S1" and "S2", etc.
MPM-10G cards each contain two independent SFP Ports, referred to as "P1" and "P2".
