Yes. Any of four M6100 I/O blades (XCM8948, XCM8944,
XCM8944F, and XCM8924X) can be inserted into any slots of
M6100-3S base chassis. Slot-1 is designed as a Supervisor slot.
Slot-2 is designed as a Back-up Supervisor blade. Any combination

XCM8924X) can handle these roles.

11. Why can’t I find any Supervisory module SKU for
fabric or management?
Because the M6100 series is designed upon an innovative “distributed
fabric” which removes the need for a dedicated supervisory module,
while providing a passive backplane, redundant fabric and redundant
management – all with non-stop forwarding world-class resiliency
and availability. As a result, all four M6100 I/O blades (XCM8948,
XCM8944, XCM8944F, and XCM8924X) are equipped with dedicated
hardware and soware high-end distributed fabric on board. When
inserted in Slot 1, any I/O blade will handle the Supervisory Role. When
inserted in Slot 2, any I/O blade will handle the Back-up Supervisory
role. It brings simplicity for management and maintenance or upgrades,
while providing better availability and resiliency than any competitive
solution in this price range.
