Main Components
The N48LSM-16X16 and N48LSM-32X32 1U network panels are designed for spine-and-leaf architecture, which replaces
a standard MPO/MTP-to-LC cross-connect with MPO/MTP ports and helps eliminate significant rack clutter. Spine ports in
the front of the panel mate with a spine switch, and leaf ports in the rear mate with a leaf switch. Main components of the
panels are shown below:
