The VadaTech UTC043 is a feature-rich MicroTCA Carrier Hub (MCH) for the MTCA chassis. Its management software is based on VadaTech’s robust Carrier Manager and Shelf Manager which have been deployed for many years with proven results. The MCMC manages power modules, 2 Cooling Units and 12 AMCs within the MTCA chassis.
The UTC043 is a single width module. The front panel includes seven GbE interfaces via RJ-45 connectors and two management ports via RJ-45 (10/100) and a Micro USB (RS-232) connectors. The layer two managed GbE switch supports a rich set of RFCs.
The UTC043 runs Linux on its MCMC CPU and is hot-swappable. It is fully redundant when used in conjunction with a second instance of the module. The firmware is HPM.1 compliant enabling easy upgrades.
