It is not possible to use Router / DSP Kernel modules of different types in one device!
MADI Redundancy
The MADI modules in the slots 13 to 18 (and in the slots 34 to 39 in a 6 HU frame) can be configured as redundancy for
the corresponding modules of the slots 3 to 8 (and the slots 24 to 29 in a 6 HU frame). That means, if you want to
safeguard the channels of the MADI module in slot 5, you have to plug the redundant module into slot 15 and to assign
this module to be redundant with the configuration software Toolbox5.
Please find more information on the MADI redundancy and its configuration in the section Configuring MADI Redundancy.

Controller Redundancy
How to set up communication controller redundancy if one or both modules are
running the firmware version 06.05.11 or older?
Important
Please read the following instructions on setting up communication controller
redundancy carefully, before you start to implement the controller redundancy.
To use controller redundancy, you need two 52-6850 Communication Controller modules. It is not possible to use 52-6851
controllers or a mixture of both types for redundancy applications.
Please read the following notes on updating the firmware carefully, before you plug the controller modules into the slots 2
and 19 of the 52/XR MADI Router frame. Afterwards interconnect the upper RJ45 connectors (the controller replication
ports) with each other via a crossed CAT5 cable.
