New Part Numbers • No longer based upon port count – Ex: RTC 18 port count – 18, 24, 36, or 72 • Based upon rack space & adapter plate count – RTC 18 – RTC 36 – RTC 72 – RTC 144 RTC 1 U-3 AP (Saves 1 RU) RTC 2 U-6 AP RTC 4 U-12 AP No equal 5
New Part Numbers • RTS (sliding tray) – True family look for all • RTC 1 U-3 AP - RTS 1 U-3 AP • RTC 2 U-6 AP - RTS 2 U-6 AP • RTC 4 U-12 AP - RTS 4 U-12 AP 6
The New HD Adapter Plate • New enclosures will accept standard 600 series adapter plates • New HD adapter plates – Increase port density • 600 series fits 3 in 1 RU – Dual LC = 36 ports • HD series fits 4 in 1 RU – Dual LC = 48 ports – Part numbers will be similar but add HD • 616 SCHD 7
The New RTC/RTS • HD adapter plate only fit in an RTCxx-HD – RTC 1 U-HD 4 AP – RTC 2 U-HD 8 AP – RTC 4 U-HD 16 AP HD only fits with HD 8
