AT-AR048 Support
Maximum DS3 packet forwarding rates are achieved only when the AT-AR048
is installed in a Rapier 48w switch, or a Rapier 24i switch whose serial number
ends with the letter N or higher. If maximum DS3 performance is not required,
you can install the AT-AR048 in any Rapier 24i whose serial number ends in J
or later. You can find the serial number on the underside of the switch (Figure 1
on page 5).
