[c-nsp] DFC-3BXL vs DFC-3CXL

[Tassos Chatzithomaoglou]

Hi Arie,

Can you please explain the "has to be matched" part?

I have both 6500/SUP720 and 7600/RSP720 systems and i would prefer to get DFC-3CXL cards (instead of DFC-3BXL), so i can use them 
at their maximum efficiency in both systems (interchangeably). Isn't that possible?


Regards,
Tassos
