Midplane Architecture
The midplane separates the front and rear chassis slots. The connectors on the midplane provide intra-chassis
communications, power connections, and data transport paths between the various installed cards.
The midplane also contains two independent -48 VDC busses (not shown) that distribute redundant power to each card
within the chassis.
