The VadaTech UTC056 is a double module (MTCA.4 format) MCH with front-panel fabric expansion and RTM support (PCIe option only). Fabric options include PCIe Gen3, 10/40GbE, Xilinx UltraScale+ VU13P FPGA, Cross Bar Switch (CBS), and SRIO.

The 40GbE Fabric option has dual 100G uplink via QSFP28 (zQSFP+).

The MCMC manages the Power Modules, Cooling Units, and up to 12 AMCs within the chassis. It also manages the fabric switch as well as the standard GbE with 10GbE uplink Base Channel switch.

The Ethernet switch is managed with an enterprise grade Layer 3 switching/routing stack and they support Synchronous Ethernet. The firmware in the UTC056 is HPM.2 compliant which allows for easy upgrades.

The unit provides Master JTAG services to the AMCs via the JSM, with an option for virtual JTAG capability.

The MCH has advanced clocking features including grand master clock and high-quality clock distribution/synthesis.
