Probably, the PAs are too old. Early hardware revision port adapters
will not function in a VXR chassis, but will work in the 720x (non-VXR)
and in a 75xx with a VIP.

To be sure do a "show diag". If the hardware revision is lower than 1.14
ona the PA-8E it won't work.

Consult the compatibility list here:

Watch wrap, or use...

Probably not those cards but a later rev. PA-8E.

Swap the chassis for a non-VXR or swap the PAs for a newer rev.
