Notes:
1. These numbers represent the minimum number of components with no redundancy.
2. These numbers represent the minimum number of components with hardware redundancy. Additional components
are required if Session Recovery is to be supported.
*1:1 redundancy is supported for these cards however some subscriber sessions and accounting information may be lost
in the event of a hardware or software failure even though the system remains operational.
**The physical maximum number of half-height line cards you can install is 28; however, redundant configurations may
use fewer than the physical maximum number of line cards since they are not required behind standby PSCs or PSC2s.
***The 10 Gigabit Ethernet Line Card is a full-height line card that takes up the upper and lower slots in the back of the
chassis. Use the upper slot number only when referring to installed XGLCs. Slot numbering for other installed half-
height cards is maintained: 17 to 32 and 33 to 48, regardless of the number of installed XGLCs.
