The VT868 is a 5U MTCA chassis that provides 6 Extended-sized and 6 Mid-sized AMC slots that can accept AMC.1, AMC.2, AMC.3 and/or AMC.4. It also provides FCLK, TCLKA, TCLKB, TCLKC and TCLKD to each slot with clock redundancy between the two MCH modules. The chassis has 40GbE capabilities.
The VT868 is capable of having redundant MCH, Power Modules, and Cooling Units for high availability. The CLK3 option can be configured for the Fabric clock, Telecom clock, or Fabric B. There is an option for Port 2 and 3 to be directly connected among the adjacent AMCs or to the fabric B (AMC.3 SATA/SAS switch option on the MCH). The chassis also routes ports 12-15 to 17-20 of the adjacent slot.
The VT868 has a Telco Alarm as well as redundant FRU information devices and carrier locators.
