(TVM), an Analog Voice Module (AVM), and a High-Speed Data Module (HDM)
would have the HDM in the first slot (physical slot B) above the EBM, followed
by the TVM and the AVM (physical slots C and D). Modules must be stacked
from bottom to top, without skipping a slot.
Notes:
TVM/EVM must always be called LIM B regardless of its
location in the stacking order
If you are using one HDM, it must always be in LIM 1
(physical slot B). If you are using two HDMs, they must be
in LIM 1 and 2 (physical slots B and C)
The ISDN BRI module is stacked above the data modules
and the TVM/EVM.
Table 10-1. Module Stacking Order
Determining the Logical Interface Module (LIM) Identifier
Once the stacking order is determined, each expansion module must be assigned
to a Logical Interface Module (LIM). The Passport 4400 uses the LIM identifier
to track of the position of each module within the unit. This is set using a four-
position switch group located on the module.
Modules with numeric switches (data modules) are assigned LIMs starting at
1 and continuing up to 4. Modules with alpha switches (voice modules) are
assigned LIMs starting at B and continuing up to E (LIM A is already assigned
to the Ethernet Base Module). The table below shows a typical configuration
