Multi-chassis Extension Unit
The Multi-chassis Extension Unit (see Figure A-6 and Figure A-7 below) enables the
connection of up to 512 synchronized SmartBits chassis. Each extension unit supports up
to eight chassis; each of these chassis can connect to another extension unit that supports
up to eight additional chassis, and so on, until reaching the 512 quantity limit. This
extension unit also provides flexibility in cable length and cable distribution, and supports
the regeneration of signals and timing at each extension unit.
