An RTP Media Portal occupies a single chassis domain (side) on a

Domain B, as well as Left Domain and Right Domain.

numbered from left to right (1-16), and if viewed from the rear, the
slots are numbered from right to left (1-16).
The CPX8216T dual 8-slot architecture further refines the domain
definition so that each chassis domain is dedicated to a Host CPU
