What Is QMC (VITA 93)?
The QMC (Quad Mezzanine Card) standard, part of the VITA 93 initiative, is transforming the future of modular I/O. At just 26 × 78 mm, these high-performance mezzanine cards offer scalable I/O, PCIe Gen5/6 speed, and support for both air and conduction cooling all in a rugged, SWaP-optimized format.
QMC is a smarter alternative to traditional XMC and mPCIe, especially for space-constrained platforms like VNX+, VPX, and CompactPCI-Serial.
Why Alphitech?
While competitors rush to release off-the-shelf options, Alphitech is focused on fully customizable QMC designs that actually meet your system’s needs.
- 4-channel module focus for precision low-I/O-count systems
- Custom signal routing analog, digital, serial, fiber, ARINC 429, MIL-STD-1553, etc.
- Air or conduction cooling, or hybrid-ready
- Carrier-agnostic compatibility: PCIe edge, VNX+, VPX, CompactPCI
- Form-factor compliance + mechanical flexibility
Whether you’re working with a massive AI SoC or threading I/O into a 19mm payload tube we’ll engineer the fit, function, and thermal interface you need.
