Slot Numbers on Catalyst 6000 Family Switches
Step 3
Check that there is enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect
directly to the supervisor engine or switching-module ports.
Note
If possible, place switching modules between empty slots that contain only
switching-module filler plates (Cisco part number 800-00292-01).
Warning
Blank faceplates (filler panels) serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference
(EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the
chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards and faceplates are in place.
