Network Products located at
Guideline
Sort all components by weight, placing the heaviest components at the bottom
of the HP MCS.
Mount the switchbox either behind the keyboard or within a sidewall cavity to
provide a zero-U space solution.
Mount the keyboard or integrated keyboard monitor at a level that is in the
correct ergonomic position where your shoulders and neck are relaxed.
Ergonomic considerations should drive the placement of a monitor in the HP
MCS, whether it is a CRT or Flat-panel design. It is recommended to arrange the
screen or rack-mountable flat panel monitor, a minimum of 4U's above the
keyboard tray. Most customers prefer placement of the video system high in the
HP MCS, especially in a full HP MCS, to allow easier access to serviceability of
other system components below it.
