System Layout
The CPX8216 is a 16-slot, high-availability CompactPCI system with two
separate 6-slot CompactPCI I/O domains and the capability to contain
redundant CPU modules and redundant Hot-Swap Controller (HSC)
modules. It is also possible to configure the system as a simplex, high I/O
system containing a single CPU-HSC pair. Even as a simplex system, the
CPX8216 still provides improved availability through redundant power
supplies and the control/monitoring capabilities of the HSC, as described
in

CPX8216
The CPX8216 standard system consists of two 8-slot subsystems, or
domains, each with two slots for the host processor and six slots for
nonhost CompactPCI boards. The HSC board mounts in the rear of the
chassis, behind the secondary CPU slot.
