    In addition, the MSM-G8X has eight SFP data ports. These data ports operate the same as the ports on the G24X I/O module. (See “G24X I/O Module” on page 31 for more information about these ports.) The eight data ports are integrated into the MSM and managed by a separate I/O processor, which retains control of the eight Ethernet ports on the MSM during a failover.
