The G8X Management Switch Module (MSM) for the BlackDiamond 8810 switch holds both the control 
plane and the switch fabric for the switch. One MSM is required for switch operation; however, adding 
an additional MSM to the chassis increases reliability and throughput.

The G8X MSM also has eight data I/O ports. See 

 for information on 

these ports.

For full redundancy you can install up to two G8X MSMs in the BlackDiamond 8810 switch. Each G8X 
MSM also contains a temperature sensor, nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM), and a real-
time clock.

The MSM for the BlackDiamond 8810 switch provides the active switching fabric and CPU control 
subsystem. Each G8X MSM provides 192 Gbps of switching throughput through three ASICs.
