Chapter 2 Module Installation

Space Requirements

The hybrid amplifiers are double-wide modules. They are usually installed in slots 5
through 15. Slots 1 through 4 are usually reserved for the power supplies. Slots 15
and 16 are reserved for the ICIM2, if installed. If an ICIM2 is not installed, any other
module could be installed in these slots.

Chassis Style

The Prisma II chassis is configured with front connectors. Power, RF input/output,
and other connectors are located on the front of the chassis. Connections to the
chassis serve the same function and are made in the same manner regardless of the
location of the connectors or chassis configuration.
Note: The chassis ships with either a rear exhaust or a front exhaust fan tray. The
rear exhaust fan tray has its air exhaust ports on the rear of the fan tray. The front
exhaust fan tray has its air exhaust ports on the front of the fan tray and a solid back
panel.

chassis with two power supplies, 10 full-height modules, and the ICIM installed.
The power inlets, RF input/output, and RF ports are located on the recessed bottom
