VT8561U MicroTCA chassis with two slots and a drive bay
VT856 is a compact two-position MicroTCA chassis in which the connection between the slots is direct: there is no intermediate switching element and the latency between the two boards stays that of the backplane alone.
The same space can alternatively take two 2.5 inch disk drives, so that the system covers both two-board configurations and those with storage on board. The AMC.1, AMC.2 and AMC.4 profiles are declared, CE, FCC and UL certifications and a storage range from -40 to 90 °C.
