The internal view of the MAS varies, depending on the type of
motherboard that is installed. The type of motherboard affects where
port boards and cables are connected. All new MASs support up to
four (4) universal-type port boards, depending on the switch integration
and the TUI used. Only systems with a nonintegrated video and LAN
that were upgraded from Release 1 support five (5) port boards,
if five boards were installed before the upgrade.
Note: Port boards are not present for IP H.323 or
IP SIP integrations.
An Avaya S3400-family MAS uses these configurations:

Caution!
The older model of MAS motherboard for the nonintegrated video
and LAN configuration contains six 32-bit, 5V port board slots.
The new model of MAS motherboard for the integrated video
and LAN configuration has three 64-bit, 3.3V universal port
board slots, and only one 5V port board slot. If you have
an older model of 5V port board that is not universal
and does not fit the 64-bit, 3.3 V PCI slot, you can install
only one port board into a later model of S3400-family MAS.
The Avaya replacement strategy is:
- Avaya ships only the universal model of the DSE port board
for new servers and as field replacement units.
- If an Avaya MAS must be replaced, Avaya replaces the faulty
server with a one that uses the same type of motherboard.
Therefore, the different number of 5V port board slots between
servers is not an issue.
