Each chassis type supports 40G per slot, and can share route-switch processors (RSPs) and line cards
(LCs), which are interchangeable. In each chassis, two slots are designated for RSPs, while the
remaining slots accommodate line cards that carry the traffic. The RSPs interconnect the line cards and
provide chassis management and control. Any line card can be used as a network-facing trunk card, a
subscriber-facing card, or it can provide any other form on connectivity.
