3-Slot ECM
The 3-slot ECM occupies the width of three slots as shown below. For example, the
ECM for slots 1, 2, and 3 plugs into the 2 mm connectors for the center slot (n+1=2).
The ECM can plug into any odd or even slot. In the Traverse shelf figures shown
below, the main backplane 2 mm connectors chosen are shown in dark gray. The
outline of the 3-slot ECM for slots 1, 2, and 3 is shown in light gray.
