Abstract
A system and method for connecting an advanced electronic module to a legacy chassis is presented. A method includes removing a legacy module from the legacy chassis. The legacy module is an older module that communicates with legacy chassis through at least two legacy module connectors on the legacy module and at least two chassis connectors on the legacy chassis. Next, a connector plate with a front side and a back side is attached to the improved electronic module that communicates to the font side of the connector plate with fewer that the at least two legacy module connectors. The method attaches the connector plate and the improved electronic module to legacy chassis so that an equal a number of connectors on the back side of the connector plate communicate with an equal number of legacy chassis connectors on the legacy chassis.
