Backplane Connections and Installation Rules
The
following
sections
describe
the
FTM1
and
FTM2
backplane
connections,
and
the
hardware
configuration
rules
when
installing
first
(6x1xx),
second
(6x2xx),
third
(6x3xx),
and
fourth
(7xxxxx)
generation
modules
into
the
same
Matrix
E7
chassis.
FTM1 and FTM2 Connectivity
The
Matrix E7
(6C107)
chassis
has
backplanes
referred
to
as
FTM1
and
FTM2.
The
7xxxxx
DFE modules
use
FTM2
for
high
speed
communication
to
each
other
and
operate
as
one
switching
unit
with
a
single
IP
address.
The
traffic
through
these
modules
does
not
connect
to
FTM1
except
through
an
FTM
bridging
module
such
as
the
7H4382
‐
25,
7H4382
‐
49,
7H4383
‐
49,
or
the
7H4385
‐
49.
These
DFE modules
have
connections
to
both
FTM1
and
FTM2
backplanes,
enabling
them
to
route
frames
between
the
two
backplanes
and
all
modules
in
the
6C107
chassis.
However,
the
older
first
(6x1xx),
second
(6x2xx),
and
third
(6x3xx)
generation
modules
are
still
managed
using
their
own
Local
Management
and
are
not
subject
to
management
by
the
DFE module
management
entity.
The
Matrix
N3
(7C103)
and
Matrix
N7
(7C107)
chassis
have
only
FTM2
connections
and
support
only
DFE modules.
The
Matrix N5
(7C105
‐
P)
has
FTM2
connections
and
also
supports
PoE
‐
compliant
DFE modules.
Module Placement and Rules
Depending
on
the
modules
being
installed
in
the
Matrix
E7
chassis
and
to
help
ensure
proper
operation,
consider
the
following
examples
and
rules
for
module
placement
in
the
chassis.
Figure 3
‐
4
shows
six
examples
of
chassis
module
placement.
These
examples
are
described
below
along
with
the
applicable
module
placement
rule.
The
Matrix N1,
Matrix N3,
Matrix N5,
and
Matrix N7
chassis
support
only
DFE
Series
modules
and
there
are
no
particular
rules
for
installing
modules.
Note:
A lowercase x indicates the general use of an alphanumeric character (for example,
6x1xx, the x’s indicate a combination of numbers or letters).
