The H9273 backplane is a 9-slot Q/CD QBUS backplane, the standard backplane in the BA11-N mounting box. It could hold quad-sized cards.

It was a Q18 backplane, but it is relatively easy to upgrade it to Q22.

Since it was a Q/CD backplane, dual-width QBUS cards could only be placed in the left-hand slots, and quad QBUS-only cards had to not use any pins on the right-hand C/D connectors. (The only DEC card with a problem with this seems to have been the MMV11-A.)
