3.1Chassis, Rails and Top Cover

3.1.1 Chassis

The Server Platform SR6850HW4 utilizes a standard 19-inch EIA chassis that is 6U high x 28 inches deep. The chassis can be rack-mounted or used as a pedestal system. Rack mounting the platform requires a 6U x 19 inches x 34 inches deep space, with the extra six inches required for cable management. When used in a rack, the chassis can be mounted with an optional rail kit and cable management arm. Pedestal operation requires a pedestal conversion kit that consists of a different bezel, floor supports/wheels and a cosmetic cover.

The 6U height is defined by standard EIA rack units where 1U = 1.75-inches. The 28-inch depth is measured from the front mounting flange to the back of the PCI slots. This measurement does not include cables or the bezel.
