2.4.5 AdvancedMC Sites
PICMG AdvancedMC AMC.0 defines hot-swappable daughter cards to be used in
PICMG architectures. The Sun Netra CP3240 switch supports three AMC sites so
that the functionality of the Sun Netra CP3240 switch can be expanded. AMC.2
(Ethernet) AMCs are supported with direct connections to the Base and Fabric
subsystems. Other types of AMCs, such as AMC.1 (PCI-Express) or AMC.3
(SAS/SATA), can be used as well. Nearly any type of AMC can be supported,
because the Sun Netra CP3240 switch connects the AMCs sites directly together on
certain ports.
