Physical Description
The Bridge has a similar form factor to an RMC. During installation, an RMC is removed from the RMC Chassis and the Bridge is installed in its place. Compatible RMS Bus cable connectors are provided for connection to the RMS Bus. Two copper PCI-RMS cable connectors are provide for connection PCI-RMS Ring nodes.
