Locating the Mounting Position
The DXi6900-S system is designed to fit in a standard 19 inch (48.3 cm) wide rack. It is important for the
chassis installation to locate the hole pattern in the rack rails. You must allow 2U (3.4 inches or 8.7 cm) of
vertical space for the DXi6900-S Node and an addition 2U for each Array module (RBOD) and Expansion
module (EBOD) installed in the rack.
Rack cabinets that meet EIA-310 standards have an alternating pattern of three holes per rack unit with
center-to-center hole spacing (beginning at the top hole of a 1U space) of 15.9 mm, 15.9 mm, and 12.7 mm
