Illustrated Card List for MGX Switches and the
MGX 8880 Media Gateway
How to Use the Illustrated Card List
This chapter includes tables that define which front cards are supported in each MGX switch or gateway,
and the MGX Release number in which each card was introduced.
Card Naming Conventions
MGX cards contain meaning in their names. In these tables, abbreviated card names such as AUSM,
FRSM, SMFLR, and more are listed in the Glossary. In addition, the R- prefix on some back card names
(e.g., R-SMB-8E1) means that this is a redundant back card, which is used for 1:N card set redundancy
without bulk distribution.
Card Organization
First, tables of cards by MGX switch or gateway name appear. These tables are followed by the front and
back cards, listed alphabetically. The cards’ function is described and their faceplates are illustrated. For
consistency and usability in this document, the front cards and back cards are identified by the name
printed on the faceplate.
Tip The heading for each front card includes which MGX switch or gateway uses the card. So, in addition
to using the following tables of cards by MGX switch or gateway name, scanning the Table of Contents
for Chapter 2 is a quick way to see which front cards are supported on which switch or gateway.
