4U rugged MicroTCA chassis platform offers 12 AMC slots
The MicroTCA chassis has perforated bottom and top covers for airflow from the upper fan tray. The VT931 is a 4U version of the VadaTech VT930 with an additional integrated removable upper cooling unit. The chassis is designed to MicroTCA.1 specification for rugged applications. It has a Dual Star backplane configuration with 40GbE or PCIe Gen3 capability. The VT931 has dual redundant FRU information and Carrier Locators, and the Carrier Locator is assigned by easily accessible mechanical dip switches. As the switches are removable, the backplane can remain passive. The MCH reads the Locator via its private I2C bus.
The VT931 backplane supports up to 40GbE or PCIe based on a VadaTech design optimized for signal integrity. It provides a compact cooling configuration with a single intelligent cooling unit to optimize space usage for electronics.
