Abstract
An information handling system includes a bracket in physical contact with a server compute module. The bracket includes an adjustable guide that can rotate between a first position and a second position within the bracket. The adjustable guide is in the first position in response to a first peripheral card being inserted within the bracket, and is in the second position in response to a second peripheral card being inserted within the bracket.
Claims20
A bracket to receive a peripheral card of an information handling system, the bracket comprising:
- an adjustable guide rotatable between a first position and a second position within the bracket, the adjustable guide disposed in the first position in response to a first peripheral card being inserted within the bracket, and disposed in the second position in response to a second peripheral card being inserted within the bracket, wherein the adjustable guide extends through a hole within a first side wall of the bracket when the adjustable guide is in the second position, and wherein a length of a longest side of the adjustable guide is shorter than a length of a longest side of the second peripheral card.
A information handling system comprising:
- a server compute module;
- and
- a bracket in physical contact with the server compute module, the bracket to receive a peripheral card, the bracket including:
- an adjustable guide rotatable between a first position and a second position within the bracket, the adjustable guide disposed in the first position in response to a first peripheral card being inserted within the bracket, and disposed in the second position in response to a second peripheral card being inserted within the bracket, wherein the adjustable guide extends through a hole within a first side wall of the bracket when the adjustable guide is in the second position, and wherein a length of a longest side of the adjustable guide is shorter than a length of a longest side of the second peripheral card.
An information handling system comprising:
- a server compute module;
- and
- a bracket in physical contact with the server compute module, the bracket to receive a peripheral card, the bracket including:
