AT-AMC2 is an AMC.2 compliant AdvancedTCA (ATCA) carrier blade that is available with two double-wide or four (single-wide) bays. The carriers support up to four extended full-size, single-width AdvancedMCs (AMCs) or up to two extended full-size, double-width AMCs.

The serial fabric interface to each of the AT-AMC2's AMC slots complies with the AMC.2 Specification for the Common Options and Fat Pipes regions. The carrier supports two lanes of Gigabit Etherenet (GbE) to each AMC bay for AMC ports 0 and 1 (AMC.2 option E2); two lanes of GbE to AMC bays 1 and 3 for AMC ports 4 and 5 (AMC.2 Type 2) are also supported. Four lanes of GbE are provided to AMC bays 2 and 4 for AMC ports 4 - 7 (AMC Type 4). Each GbE lane terminates into a high-performance non-blocking switch. The AT-AMC2 is also AMC.3 compliant via ports 2 and 3 enabling support for applications requiring storage I/O (SAS/SATA) AdvancedMCs.

AT-AMC2 is designed to deliver carrier services for any AMC.2-compliant AMC including processor, WAN I/O, LAN I/O, or storage AMCs. This allows the carrier blade to be optimized for high-performance architectures that support next-generation IP-centric applications such as IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC).
