Abstract
A blade server comprises first and second housing portions. Each housing portion includes a cover securing a first printed circuit board assembly, two sides extending from the cover, a bezel portion secured along a proximal end of the cover between the two sides, a first hinge member formed near the proximal end of one side, and a second hinge member formed near the proximal end of the other side. The hinge members on the first housing portion are selectively engagable with the hinge members on the second housing portion to enable the housing portions to pivot between an open position and a closed position with the first and second printed circuit board assemblies disposed between the first and second housing portions.
