OpenPower 720 Technical Overview and Introduction
1.5 System racks
The Enterprise Rack Models T00 and T42 are 19-inch wide racks for general use with
IBM
Sserver
OpenPower, p5, pSeries, and RS/6000 rack-based or rack drawer-based
systems. The racks provide increased capacity, greater flexibility, and improved floor space
utilization.
The OpenPower 720 uses a 4U rack-mounted server drawer.
If an OpenPower 720 system is to be installed in a non-IBM rack or cabinet, you should
ensure that the rack conforms to the EIA
1
standard EIA-310-D (see 1.5.6, “OEM rack” on
page 16).
