Provides an identifier for the cavity. The cavity number needs to be unique within a Slot.

Cavity
hasIntegratedTerminalBoolean0..1

Defines whether the cavity has an integrated terminal (for example an IDC cavity) or if an additional terminal is required.

If this attribute is "true", the cavity can reference a TerminalSpecification as integratedTerminalSpecification in order to specify the integrated terminal.
