Abstract
A server structure includes a chassis including at least one partition oriented in a plane, and a backplane tray slideably supported by the chassis in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the at least one partition. The at least one partition forms a bay to receive at least one module, and the backplane tray supports a backplane including at least one electrical connector for the at least one module.
Claims14
A server structure, comprising:
- a chassis including at least one partition oriented in a plane, the at least one partition forming a bay to receive at least one module;
- and
- a backplane tray slideably supported by the chassis in a direction substantially perpendicular to the plane of the at least one partition, the backplane tray to support a backplane including at least one electrical connector for the at least one module, wherein the backplane tray comprises a base to support a printed circuit board including the at least one electrical connector, an end panel provided at one end of the base, and a handle associated with the end panel.
A server structure, comprising:
- a chassis including first and second bays to receive insertion of first and second modules in a first direction;
- and
- a backplane tray supported by the chassis to support first and second electrical connectors for the first and second modules, wherein the backplane tray is slideable relative to the chassis in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the backplane tray comprises a base to support a printed circuit board including the first and second electrical connectors, an end panel provided at one end of the base, and a handle associated with the end panel.
A server chassis, comprising:
- first structure to support at least one module and to receive insertion of the at least one module in a first direction;
- and
- second structure to support a backplane for the at least one module and to slide the backplane relative to the first structure to support the at least one module in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the second structure comprises a backplane tray including a base to support a printed circuit board including a first electrical connector and a second electrical connector, an end panel provided at one end of the base, and a handle associated with the end panel.
