Features:
- Mounts from the front in a standard 19-inch rack opening.
- Supports fifteen single-width modules when no double-width modules are present.
- Combines RX7i slot sensing with a VME64 J2 data path.
The power supply occupies slot 0 and the CPU with its Ethernet daughterboard uses the controller positions.
Seven double-width modules can be installed, or single- and double-width hardware can be mixed within the remaining spaces.
Fan selection follows the installed CPU, supply, and VME module requirements rather than rack size alone.
Apter Power provides quotation support and official GE documentation access for General Electric IC698CHS117 PACSystems RX7i Seventeen-Slot Front-Mount Rack.
