A chassis includes a flash module comprising a cover and an integrated connector, a metal stiffener, an electromagnetic interference (EMI) gasket, and a midplane. The flash module is connected to the midplane using the integrated connector, the integrated connector extends past the cover of the flash module, and, when the flash module is connected to the midplane, the cover of the flash module is in direct contact with the EMI gasket, in which the metal stiffener is interposed between the EMI gasket and the midplane.

Electromagnetic interference containment system

A latch module that includes a button carriage that is slidably coupled to a latch module chassis, thereby enabling the button carriage to move between an extended and a depressed position. The button carriage, when a user-operable button of the button carriage is depressed a first time, moves from the extended position to the depressed position. An inverter arm that is pivotally coupled to the latch module chassis and that is mechanically linked to the button carriage pivots when the button carriage, moves from the extended position to the depressed position, as the button is depressed. A latch arm that is mechanically linked to the inverter arm slides from a non-blocking position into a blocking position when the inverter arm pivots. In the blocking position, the latch arm extends beyond a retaining pin of a chassis; and in the non-blocking position, the latch arm clears the retaining pin.

Mechanical latch module

A system is disclosed that includes a flash module and a chassis. The flash module includes a top cover, a bottom cover, a printed circuit board, a capacitor, and a latch assembly. The latch assembly includes a housing having an opening and an inner cavity, a pull member, a reversing link, and a latch member. The chassis has an opening that is configured to receive the flash module. Also, the chassis includes a retaining pin coupled to the housing. The retaining pin protrudes into the inner cavity of the housing, and the second end of the latch member is configured to engage the retaining pin.

Flash module

A flash module includes a top cover and a bottom cover, a printed circuit board (PCB) comprising memory, solid state storage, a storage controller configured to manage the memory and the solid state storage, and at least one integrated connector, and a capacitor, in which the capacitor is configured to power at least the storage controller when the flash module is disconnected from an external power source.

A system includes a chassis having a longitudinal axis defined therethrough and an upper airflow chamber, a central airflow chamber, and a lower airflow chamber formed longitudinally therethrough, a midplane secured within the chassis in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis defined through the chassis, in which the midplane defines a front portion and a rear portion within the chassis, and wherein the midplane is configured to allow airflow therethrough, and a first printed circuit board disposed within the rear portion of the chassis in the upper airflow chamber, the first printed circuit board having a first end, a second end, and an opening formed therethrough, in which the first end of the first printed circuit board is operatively coupled to the midplane.

A rackmount system for a component may include outer slide members that couple with inner slide members. The outer slide members may be coupled to a rack with slam latches. The slam latches may couple with rails of the rack when the slam latches are placed against the rails. The inner slide members may be coupled to a component. The inner slide members may include tabs that engage slots in a chassis of the component to couple the inner slide members to the component. An inner slide assembly may include an inner latch that couples with the outer slide member to inhibit movement of the inner slide member relative to the outer slide member. The rackmount system may include a locking mechanism that locks the component relative to the rack.
