In this example shown in Figure 7-3 MSP is configured on the STM-1/4 core card. The 
Core B card acts as a Protection card and does not carry normal worker traffic. 

7.2.2.2 Tributary 

Cards 

In addition to the rules in Section 7.2.2.1, the following slot positions must apply where 
generic tributary cards are used. 

Generic tributary cards are located in numerically adjacent slots, with the protection 
card in the next available slot to the right, jumping the core and protection cards and 
the blank slot. Generic tributary cards can be arranged in groups, with each group 
having its own generic tributary card protection. See Table 7-4. 

Rules 

• 

Unprotected generic Trib cards can be fitted in any generic Trib slot. 

• 

For 1+1 protection groups the protection trib must be fitted in the next 
generic trib slot to the right of the worker
