    Supervisory modules and I/O modules are available. A module consists of a printed circuit board mounted on a metal panel that acts as the insertion vehicle in the 8800 series switches. The module carrier also includes ejector/injector levers and captive retaining screws at each end of the module front panel.
  • Page 15: Supervisory Module Physical Features

    Supervisory module performs a soft reset and then becomes the primary Supervisory module. For example, in an 8800 Series Chassis Switch XCM8810 with a primary Supervisory module in slot 5 and a backup Supervisory module in slot 6, if you remove the primary Supervisory module from slot 5, the backup Supervisory module in slot 6 becomes the primary Supervisory module.
