Inspect the Board to Determine the RPM Type
This table provides the product name, key components, and changes in each generation of the three types of
generally available RPMs.
Note: In this table, X is a variable that represents the hardware version.
Note: SAR = segmentation and reassembly

For additional information about enhancements to the RPM/B and minimum firmware and IOS requirements,
refer to Product Bulletin, No. 984. RPM−PRs do not work with the MGX−RJ45−4E. RPM−PRs require a
MGX−RJ45−4E/B. The MGX−RJ45−4E/B works with the RPM/B and RPM−PR.
It is important to note that the front faceplate of the RPM labels are not always correct. Listed here are various
RPM faceplate labels and what they can mean:

Characteristics of the RPM (RPM/A)
You can identify an RPM by the module's ATMizer chip. Look at the top of the card (when the card is held
upright) for the column identifier L. In the example provided, the identifiers are two ATMizer chips from LSI.
The original RPM has a chip labeled ATMizer−LX60. The chips below these (in an L formation) have a logo
from Digital on them. The chips in the L formation are indicated by circles in this picture:
