Intel® Server Board M50CYP2SB Family Technical Product Specification
136
This server board conforms to the industry standard extended ATX (EATX) form factor. This form factor
should be considered when selecting a server chassis to mount the server board into.
Server boards and server chassis that conform to the EATX form factor will share compatible mounting
features that match the server board mounting holes to fastener locations on the chassis base plate.
Server chassis may use different methods for securing the server board to the chassis. The selected chassis
may have integrated mounting features or they may include separate mounting stand-offs that must be
installed.
The following illustration identifies possible mounting options that can be used.
Figure 67. Possible Server Board Mounting Options
For mounting options that require the server board to be secured to the chassis using screws, Intel
recommends tightening the screws using a torque or pneumatic screwdriver. The recommended torque
setting is dependent on the screw type used. See the following table.
