Availability-Reliability-Upgradeability
Plug & Play modules:
Same platform allows a multitude of capacity and bandwidth configurations and network topologies = leveraged investment: pay as you grow

Stand-alone modules:
One single platform incorporates two or more systems = low operation costs (maintenance, support, inventory, operation area)

Hot swapable independent modules:

Maintenance or change of one module does not affect the other = improved network operations (availability)
