Abstract
A server chassis includes a frame for accommodating a plurality of data storage devices and at least one tray for disposing a circuit board. The frame is provided with a connector and the tray is provided with a signal bridge board electrically connecting the circuit board with the connector. The circuit board could be coupled with the data storage devices through the signal bridge board without any use of cables.
Claims6
A server chassis for disposing a circuit board and a plurality of data storage devices, the server chassis comprising:
- a frame comprising a backboard, the data storage devices being disposed in the frame and electrically connected to the backboard, wherein the backboard is equipped with at least one connector mounted thereon;
- at least one tray comprising a signal bridge board electrically connected to the circuit board disposed in the tray, one end of the signal bridge board being electrically disposed in the tray, and the other end of the signal bridge board being electrically connected to the connector of the frame;
- and
- a power bridge board electrically connected to the circuit board by a power cable, wherein the power bridge board and the signal bridge board are located at two sides of the tray opposed to each other;
- wherein, when the data storage devices are accommodated in the tray, the circuit board is electrically connected to the data storage devices through the signal bridge board and the connector.
A server chassis for disposing a circuit board and a plurality of data storage devices, the server chassis comprising:
- a housing, comprising a baffle standing on a bottom of the housing and dividing the housing into a first assembling area and a second assembling area;
- a frame detachably disposed in the first assembling area and comprising a backboard, the data storage devices being disposed in the frame and electrically connected to the backboard, wherein the backboard is equipped with at least one connector mounted thereon;
- at least one tray disposed in the second assembling area and comprising a signal bridge board electrically connected to the circuit board disposed in the tray, one end of the signal bridge board being electrically disposed in the tray, and the other end of the signal bridge board being electrically connected to the connector of the frame;
- wherein, when the data storage devices are accommodated in the tray, the circuit board is electrically connected to the data storage devices through the signal bridge board and the connector.
