One External Compact Flash port. This port is used for two purposes. It is used to control optional

fail-open hardware as described in the Gigabit Optical Fail-Open Bypass Kit Guide. It is also used in

troubleshooting situations where the Sensor's internal flash is corrupted and you must reboot the Sensor

using the external compact flash. For more information, see the on-line KnowledgeBase at
