Each MSM consists of a printed circuit board mounted on a metal panel that acts as the insertion vehicle
in the BlackDiamond 12800 series switch. The module carrier also includes ejector/injector levers and
captive retaining screws at each end of the module front panel.
The MSMs have the following features on the front panel:
Console port—The DB-9 serial console port is used to connect a terminal, allowing you to perform
local management.
Management port—The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet management port allows you to connect an Ethernet
cable directly from your laptop to the management port to view and locally manage the switch
