A storage device mounting system includes a cage assembly configured to receive one or more storage devices. A pivot assembly is configured to pivotally attach the cage assembly to a chassis assembly. A flexible conductor assembly is configured to electrically couple the one or more storage devices to a system board assembly while allowing the cage assembly to pivot with respect to the chassis assembly.

Storage device mounting system

A lockable infrastructure includes a frame assembly, including a first portion of an electrical connector, configured for use within an IT infrastructure. A module assembly, including a second portion of the electrical connector, is configured to be removably positionable within the frame assembly. An indication system is configured to visually indicate the position of the module assembly within the frame assembly.

Locking/indication system

An arrangement having a processor electrically to, and mounted on, a portion of a surface of a motherboard. A plurality of memory cards is plugged into memory board slot type connectors on a surface of the memory card printed circuit board with the surface of the memory card printed circuit board being perpendicular to the surface of the motherboard. A right angle backplane connector has a first end disposed perpendicular to, and electrically connected to the surface of a motherboard and a second end disposed on the surface of, and electrically connected to, the memory card printed circuit board. The plurality of memory cards is parallel to the surface of the motherboard. An ejector mechanism is provided for removing the memory printed circuit board from an electrical connector receptacle mounted to the motherboard by camming action.

Described are electronics enclosures having an I/O (input/output) module, a CPU (central processing unit) module having a root complex, and a pluggable, field-replaceable interconnect module electrically connected to the root complex of the CPU module by a first set of differential signal pairs and to the I/O module by a second set of differential signal pairs. The field-replaceable interconnect module provides a serialized communication path between the first and second sets of differential signal pairs for carrying serialized differential signaling corresponding to communications exchanged between the root complex of the CPU module and the I/O module.

Modularized interconnect between root complexes and I/O modules

A cable assembly has an electronic cable (e.g., a data communications cable, a power cable, a fiber optic cable, a cable concurrently providing both data and power, etc.), a label to provide identification to the electronic cable, and a label supporter. The label supporter includes a cable section arranged to attach to the electronic cable, and a label section coupled to the cable section. The label section defines a rigid label surface which concurrently (i) overlays a portion of an outer surface of the electronic cable at a predefined distance from the outer surface of the electronic cable and (ii) supports the label at the predefined distance from the outer surface of the electronic cable when the cable section attaches to the electronic cable.

Described is a disk drive assembly and method for constructing same. The disk drive assembly includes a carrier-less disk drive having opposite sides, each with at least one hole. A carrier holds the disk drive. The carrier includes a frame around three sides of the disk drive. The frame has a base and opposing sidewalls. Each sidewall has an integrally formed pin that enters a corresponding hole in a side of the disk drive to position the disk drive within the frame. Coupled to the frame where each sidewall terminates is a clip. The clip provides a fourth side to the frame opposite the base and causes the sidewalls to hold the disk drive tightly therebetween. An injector-ejector mechanism can be rotatably coupled to the clip for pivotal movement between open and closed positions. Such movement urges the disk drive assembly out of and into a chassis bay.

Described is a label cassette for mounting to the front side of an enclosure and for holding and displaying a label used to identify a configuration of that enclosure. The label cassette includes a transparent cover, a tray, and a hinge mechanism. The tray has a pair of guide rails for engaging respective guide structures on the enclosure to align the label cassette for attachment to the enclosure, a capture mechanism to secure the label cassette to the enclosure, and a label surface to hold a label. The hinge mechanism attaches the transparent cover to the tray and permits rotation about an axis parallel to the back edge of the transparent cover. Mounted to a ledge that extends from the front of the enclosure, the label cassette does not occupy vertical space or interfere with connectors, cables, or airflow vents on the front of the enclosure.

This invention is a support carrier for attaching a smaller format disk drive into a chassis bay sized for receiving a larger disk drive, the support carrier includes a heat-sink surface with pin fins for conducting and removing heat from the smaller disk drive.

A device fastens a plug of a power cord to a frame which is configured to support a power supply. The device includes a body configured to attach to an installation location of the frame and substantially hold the plug at the installation location of the frame when the power supply connects with and disconnects from the plug. The body includes a first end wall, a second end wall, and lateral walls which connect the first end wall and the second end wall together. When the body substantially holds the plug at the installation location of the frame and when the body is attached to the installation location of the frame, the walls operate to reliably hold the plug in place to enable robust blind mating of the plug with the power supply.
