What Is the Cisco 7513?
The Cisco 7513 is a 13-slot router chassis, which uses the RSP2 and CxBus and CyBus interface
processors. The chassis provides up to eleven interface processor slots. Although the chassis uses
two high-speed, 1.067-gigabit-per-second (Gbps) CyBuses, it can accommodate all CxBus-based
interface processors.
Any combination of network interface types is supported: Ethernet, Token Ring, Fiber Distributed
Data Interface (FDDI), channel attachment, multichannel, serial, and so forth. The RSP2 and
interface processors are keyed with guides on the backplane to prevent them from being fully
inserted in the wrong slot.
Figure 1 shows the interface processor end of the Cisco 7513, which provides access to the thirteen
slots, the system blower, and the power supplies. When facing the interface processor end of the
chassis, the RSP2 is installed in RSP slot 6 or 7.
The eleven interface processor slots are numbered from slot 0 (far left) through slot 5 (CyBus 0) and
slot 8 through slot 12 (CyBus 1).
