MicroTCA chassis solves power-redundancy problem

Compliant with the MicroTCA.4 specification, the VT813 8U-high chassis uses double modules with an RTM connector for rear I/O and has four 1,100-W power supplies in an N+1 redundant power configuration, thus providing 4,400 W. Many High-Energy Physics and other applications require full power redundancy in the system.

By aligning the compact power supplies on the side of the card cage, the chassis is able to provide 12 double-module, mid-sized slots. The backplane for the VT813 is 40GbE-ready, with a high dielectric material for clean signals. The chassis offers full redundancy, including dual fans trays in a push/pull configuration, dual MCH’s, and four power supplies. There are also dual FRU information devices and carrier locators, along with a JTAG Switch Module slot and a Telco Alarm built-in.
