Hi Andrew, Assuming you have the standard chassis from Digicom, you likely have an iStarUSA D-107 chassis. It is actually an odd size at 1.3U; a ROACH won't fit in a 1U because of the height of the CX4 assembly (as you've observed).
http://www.istarusa.com/rackmount_chassis/dstorm/1u/d-107.aspx It looks like iStar has sliding rail kits that you could get, though I don't know specifically that they've been tried. Matt-- You tend to do things proper; are the PAPER ROACHs in RAL racked? Thanks, Henry On 4/28/2010 6:08 PM, Andrew Lutomirski wrote:
I decided it's time to rack up our ROACH boards. The cases they come in are really oddly sized, though -- they seem to be about 1.5U with the holes in the middle, which might as well be 2U in terms of space taken. Even worse, they only have ears (not rails), so I'm a bit nervous about having empty space between them. Does anyone have any good solutions? Maybe a different case to put the ROACHes in that's really 1U? The only think that looks even close to 1.75 inches high is the CX4 port thing. --Andy
