Installing an AMC Module in a Powered System
To install an AMC Module on a AdvancedTCA host board, refer to the Figure 1-10 on page 13,
read all cautions and warnings and perform the following steps. This figure is for reference only
and may not represent the exact host board you are using.
Note
■ ATCA-C110/1G can accommodate up to four single-width, full-height, B+ Connector
Type, Advanced Mezzanine Cards. Refer to AMC Bay Locations on page 4 for the
locations of the AMC Bays onboard the ATCA-C110/1G.

in its host chassis - see Installing the ATCA-C110/1G in a Powered Chassis on page 19.
■ The installation procedure assumes that the AMC module is being hot-inserted into a
live carrier. The procedure for a cold insertion (when the carrier is not powered) is the
same, except that you need not wait for the blue LED indications to proceed. For more
details about hot swap, refer to Understand Hot Swap on page 18.
