Avenue 9430 Flexible Matrix Router Installation, Configuration and Operations Guide
An Assembled 30 Port Router ready to install in an Avenue 3RU Frame
Example of Completed Assembly
The example shown below consists of one 9430 and two 9440s, with backplanes and stand-offs in
place, providing 30 ports. This assembly is ready to install in an Avenue 3RU Frame.
PART TWO: REQUIRED CABLE CONNECTIONS
Seating the Board Set Firmly in the Frame
Install the board set in the frame, taking care to insure that the modules are fully seated into the frame
backplane connector. This requires more force than with a single module.
Avenue 3RU Frame Partition Divider Consideration
Because a multi-board assembly cannot span the divider in the Avenue 3RU Frame between slots
4 and 5, the three modules making up a 30 Port Router cannot be installed in either of these two
ranges:
• Slots 3, 4, 5
• Slots 4, 5, 6
It is strongly recommended to take this into account during frame and slot planning. Otherwise, you
may have to make a last-minute change to an otherwise carefully planned installation design. Despite
this restriction, it is still possible to install as many as three 30 Port Routers in a single 3RU frame.
