The mechanical design facilitates rapid module insertion and removal, while the backplane maintains electrical stability under full-load conditions. Note that when utilizing a 17-slot configuration, engineers must ensure that the total current draw from all populated modules does not exceed the capacity of the associated power supply module (e.g., TC-FPCX01).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the rack include a power supply?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTC-FXX172\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis the passive chassis base.
