2.1 Racks
2.1.1 VM600 system rack – 19" rack with a height of 6U (ABE04x)
A VM600 MPS can be housed in a 19 inch rack (84TE) with a height of 6U (6HE), known as
the VM600 system rack. Two types of this rack exist: the ABE040 and the ABE042. These
are identical, except for the position of the rack mounting brackets. An example of a MPS
housed in an ABE040 rack is shown in Figure 2-1.
An ABE040 contains a front card cage and a rear card cage. The card cages are separated
by the rack backplane.
The appearance of the front panel and rear panel of the rack depends entirely on the types
of cards installed in the two card cages. These cards are presented in the following sections
of this chapter.
