About Impedance Carriers and Slot Covers
When shipped, some slots in the chassis may contain impedance carriers or are covered by slot covers to help
ensure that the chassis is undamaged during shipment. Four different types of impedance carriers and slot
covers exist for the four different sizes of slots in the chassis (see Figure 56: RP Slot Cover, Figure 57: Switch
Fabric Slot Cover, Figure 58: PLIM Slot Impedance Carrier, and Figure 59: MSC Slot Impedance Carrier).
