Understanding Signal Routing Through the Switch

Several tables in the following topics describe the routing through the line cards and fabric cards. The tables map the switch chip and port to an XBOW connector or CXP connector. The tables also provide a reverse map. When command output provides a switch chip and port, you can use these tables to determine the route that link is following.

Additionally, if a command describes a CXP connection, or you want to associate a line card link LED to its respective switch chip port, use these tables for that purpose too.

• CXP Connectors and LEDs to Line Card Switch Chip and Port Routes

• Line Card Switch Chip to Line Card XBOW Connector Routes

• Fabric Card XBOW Connector to Fabric Card Switch Chip Routes

• Fabric Card Switch Chip to Fabric Card XBOW Connector Routes

• Line Card XBOW Connector to Line Card Switch Chip Routes

• Line Card Switch Chip and Port to CXP Connector and LED Routes

• Signal Route Through the Switch
