Major Switch Chassis Features
The following is an overview of the major features of the Switch chassis:
•
A chassis can be defined as one of three stage types: Input/Output Transfer
(IO/T), Cross Connect (CC), or SL Private Loop. An IO/T chassis supports
all port types (F, FL, SL, TL, and T). A CC chassis supports only T_Ports as it
serves as a bridge between many IO/T chassis. An SL Private Loop chassis
supports SL_Ports and T_Ports. Refer to
