Q:
Can I install a 1st generation Controller Card into a second generation
Smart 16/16e shelf?
A:
Controller Cards are compatible with first and second generation Smart 16/16e shelves.
Since a replacement Controller Card is bundled with a Rear Power Interface Card, careful
consideration must be made to properly match the rear power options with the
capabilities of the chassis. Single Power Rear Interface Cards (AC & DC) operate well
in first or second generation shelves. Dual Power Rear Interface Cards (AC & DC) are
only operable in second generation Smart 16/16e shelves.
