■
BlackDiamond 12802 switch
●
Slots 1 and 2 (top and bottom) must have I/O modules.
■

■
BlackDiamond 10808 switch
●
Slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 must have I/O modules.

NOTE
The MSM slot in the BlackDiamond 12802 switch is labeled MSM on the front panel. This slot will only operate an
MSM. The ExtremeXOS software refers to this MSM as MSM-A in all related displays and command output.
NOTE
The following slots will only operate an MSM: Slot 5/A in the BlackDiamond 8810 chassis; slot 3/A in the
BlackDiamond 8806 chassis; slots 3/A and 4/B in the BlackDiamond 12804 switch; and slots A and B in the
BlackDiamond 10808 switch.
MSMs reside in different slots depending on which BlackDiamond switch you operate:
If you are using only one MSM in the BlackDiamond 8806 switch, install that MSM in slot 3. If you
●
want to use two MSMs to increase reliability and throughput, install the second MSM in slot 4.
If you are using only one MSM in the BlackDiamond 8810 switch, install that MSM in slot 5. If you
●
want to use two MSMs to increase reliability and throughput, install the second MSM in slot 6.
The BlackDiamond 12802 switch supports a single MSM, which must be installed in slot A.

Distinguishing a BlackDiamond 8800 or 12800 MSM
from an I/O Module
One quick way to distinguish a BlackDiamond 8800 or 12800 MSM from an I/O module is by the color
of the release latch located on each injector/ejector handle. Orange injector/ejector release latches
indicate that the module is a BlackDiamond MSM, and green injector/ejector release latches indicate
that the module is a BlackDiamond I/O module (see
174
Figure
103).
