A power distribution system and method may include a first power domain having a first plurality of power rails, a second power domain having a second plurality of power rails, where the first power domain is electrically independent of the second power domain, and a plurality of modules coupled to the first power domain and the second power domain, where each of the plurality of modules is coupled to one of the first plurality of power rails and one of the second plurality of power rails. The system may also include a plurality of mated pairs, where each of the plurality of modules is in only one of the plurality of mated pairs, and where each of the plurality of mated pairs is coupled to two separate of the first and second plurality of power rails.

A power distribution system and method may include a first power domain having a first plurality of power rails, a second power domain having a second plurality of power rails, where the first power domain is electrically independent of the second power domain, and a plurality of modules coupled to the first power domain and the second power domain, where each of the plurality of modules is coupled to a unique set of one of the first plurality of power rails and one of the second plurality of power rails. The system may also include a plurality of mated pairs, where each of the plurality of modules is in only one of the plurality of mated pairs, where each of the plurality of mated pairs is coupled to four separate of the first and second plurality of power rails, and where each of the plurality of mated pairs is coupled to a unique set of the first plurality of power rails and the second plurality of power rails.

A subrack having a front side and a rear side, wherein the subrack is coupled to receive an Advanced Mezzanine Card module, the subrack includes a monolithic backplane having a first portion and second portion, where the first portion runs substantially along the front side and the second portion runs substantially along the rear side. A first slot is to receive the Advanced Mezzanine Card module inserted via the front side and connect the Advanced Mezzanine Card module directly to the second portion of the monolithic backplane. A second slot is to receive the Advanced Mezzanine Card module inserted via the rear side and connect the Advanced Mezzanine Card module directly to the first portion of the monolithic backplane. A virtual carrier manager, where the virtual carrier manager provides a control management function for the Advanced Mezzanine Card module, where the virtual carrier manager provides a central switching function for the Advanced Mezzanine Card module, and where the virtual carrier manager provides a power control function for the Advanced Mezzanine Card module.
