Slots 1 to 4 and 7 to 12 are for the Ethernet line cards. The cards may be
installed in any order or variety in the slots. The only exception is the AT-
SBx81XLEM Line Card, which is supported in slots 1 to 4, 8, and 10, but
not slots 7, 9, 11, or 12. For more information on the Ethernet cards, refer
to Chapter 2, "Ethernet Line Cards" on page 33
Slots 5 and 6 are for the AT-SBx81CFC400 Controller Fabric Card. The
chassis must have at least one controller card. Installing a second
controller card in the chassis provides these benefits:
 Management redundancy
 Increased traffic bandwidth
