Identifying T320 FPCs

You can tell the difference between the T320 FPC types by the different PICs installed in them:

• FPC1—A PIC that is compatible with an FPC1 does not have an offline button on its faceplate. The offline buttons for an FPC1 are on the FPC faceplate.
• FPC2—A PIC that is compatible with an FPC2 has captive screws at the top and bottom of its faceplate.
• FPC3—A PIC that is compatible with an FPC3 has a plastic ejector handle at the top of the PIC faceplate.
• Enhanced II FPC1, FPC2, and FPC3—A PIC that is compatible with an FPC3 has a plastic ejector handle at the top of the PIC faceplate.

Faceplates on Enhanced FPCs for the T320 router are labeled with the FPC type (FPC1, FPC2, or FPC3). The faceplates on Enhanced II FPCs are labeled E-II FPC1, E-II FPC2, or E-II FPC3.
