Adapter for nonstandard OCP module

An adapter comprising:

• a first card holder configured to be coupled to a first lateral side of a nonstandard Open Compute Project (OCP) module to facilitate installation of the nonstandard OCP module in an OCP bay of an information processing device, the OCP bay comprising a pair of OCP rails comprising grooves, wherein the pair of OCP rails extends along a horizontal axis and is separated laterally by a separation distance,
• wherein the first card holder comprises:
• an attachment portion configured to attach to the nonstandard OCP module;
• and
• an engagement feature coupled to the attachment portion and movable between an extended position and a retracted position;
• wherein in a first state of the adapter, the engagement feature of the first card holder is in the retracted position and an assembly of the adapter and the nonstandard OCP module has a widest lateral extent less than the separation distance such that the assembly is movable vertically into or out of a space between the OCP rails;
• and
• wherein in a second state of the adapter, the engagement feature of the first card holder is in the extended position and engaged with the groove of a first OCP rail to secure the assembly to the first OCP rail.
