MicroTCA (Micro Telecommunications Computing Architecture) is a standard, open architecture shelf specification for low-cost, small-form-factor, field-replaceable chassis utilizing hot-swappable AdvancedMC mezzanine cards. Developed by the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group (PICMG), MicroTCA targets central office, outside plant, last-mile access, and Customer Premises Equipment applications with tight cost and size constraints.

Emerson’s MicroTCA Communication and Computing Platform EMC6000 and EMC6200 give customers multiple options to deploy their applications. EMC6000 is a 6U 19" rack mount chassis supporting up to 12 Single or Double, Compact or Full AMC modules. EMC6000 is an ideal platform for applications requiring a mixture of Double and Single modules such as GPON or WiMAX applications.

EMC6200 is a 6U 19" rack mount chassis with two independent tiers. Each tier supports a combination of 12 Single, Compact or Full AMC modules. EMC6200 gives customers a high density option and preserves valuable rack space.

The EMC6000 and the EMC6200 are equipped with a MicroTCA Carrier Hub (MCH) with each MCH supporting up to 12 AdvancedMC modules, a cooling unit, and a 600W 48V DC power management module (per tier).

Emerson’s optional SpiderWareM³ Shelf Management Edition software is available to shorten the learning curve and accelerate application development. SpiderWareM³ features an intuitive Java based GUI that makes it easy to monitor key physical system characteristics such as power and module status. SpiderWareM³ also simplifies integration with existing applications by providing a standard SAF (Service Availability Forum) Hardware Platform Interface (HPI). SpiderWareM³ runs on an optional Emerson KosaiPM, a Pentium M processor AMC, or on any remote server.
