The Emerson Network Power AMC-8001 is a complete telecom clocking solution in a modular, Advanced Mezzanine Card (AdvancedMC™ or AMC) form factor. The AMC form factor was selected to obtain the largest blade and platform applicability with a single product. The AMC-8001 supports telecom clock generation, distribution and synchronization features required for legacy and next generation wireless infrastructure solutions.

It is envisioned that the AMC-8001 will be utilized as the basis for a completely redundant, multi-shelf telecom clocking solution. Redundancy is achieved by deploying two AMC-8001 products in the same shelf. Due to multiple deployment methodologies and customer specific applications, some software and management control functionality may be required in addition to what is provided with the base product.
