AMI’s Carrier IPMC firmware solution implements the AdvancedTCA and Advanced Mezzanine Card specifications from PICMG, which define an industry standard for high performance data communications.

Built on top of AMI’s MegaRAC-PM IPMI 2.0 firmware (IPMI 1.5 backward compatible), the firmware provides key features such as:

• Hot Swap and IPMI Event Generation (to Shelf Manager) and Reception (from Modules)
• FRU State maintenance of IPMC and Modules
• Module SDR Merging
• Module E-Keying
• Module Power Management
• Bused or Radial IPMB-L topology
• Carrier FRU and SDR Generation
• Carrier IPMC Commands.
