Note:

  Refer to 8321 20-Slot Frame Setup (page 38) in this manual if you are installing an 8321

frame. This chapter contains installation information unique to the 8321 frame. In all other aspects for
either frame, follow the installation instructions as described in the following sections.

The 8310 is a 2RU modular frame, designed to accommodate up to 10 cards of the openGear

TM

product family. The 8321 is a 2RU modular frame, designed to accommodate up to 20 cards of the
openGear

TM

 product family.

The 8310 blends the simplicity of a fixed rear connector frame, and the flexibility of independent rear
BNC connector modules.

For most applications which use BNC connectors, the 8310 is available with a fixed 100-BNC rear
module. This frame configuration allows any openGear

TM

 card using only BNC connectors to be

installed into any slot, without restrictions. Installation of separate rear modules is not required. Unused
slots can be pre-wired into a facility, and installation of cards can be done at any time without accessing
the rear of the frame.
