Interconnect Cards

The interconnect cards are alike on both array models. There are two interconnect
ports on each card: one input and one output for interconnecting multiple arrays.

The interconnect card provides switch and failover capabilities, as well as an
environmental monitor for the array. Each array contains two interconnect cards for
redundancy (thus providing a total of four interconnect ports).
