OCP DC-SCM moves the BMC, root of trust and TPM onto a pluggable module separate from the host processor module; DC-SCM Rev 2.2 (Version 1.0, September 2025) is the current published specification, after the 2.1 specification and the Cloudflare/Lenovo Project Argus DC-SCM 2.0 module design (both 2023)

DC-SCM Rev 2.2observed

Value kindobserved — Reported measurements, counts, and specifications keep the precision and scope stated by their source; an exact specification is not treated as a range.
ScopeRev 2.2 pairs with LTPI 1.2 (LTPI is now a standalone specification). DC-SCM 2.1 (2023) is the previous specification revision; Project Argus is a DC-SCM 2.0-compliant module design contribution, not a specification revision. DC-SCM 3.0 is an OCP sub-project with no published specification as of 2026-10-19. OCP MGX 1.2 (effective 2026-10-06) adds a compact vertical 1RU module on the same SFF-TA-1002 connector with a subset of DC-SCI pins.
