Supporting the Weight of the System

For a tower (free-standing) system, make sure the surface on which you place the server
is capable of supporting at least 40 pounds (18 kg) per module. Be aware that a fully
configured Origin200 module can weigh up to 75 pounds (34 kg) per module.
Rackmounted Origin200 servers ship with a mounting shelf that can support the weight
of a fully loaded system.

vibration. If you plan to use a rackmount Origin200 server in an environment that will
subject the system to excess vibration, you should obtain a mounting system capable of
dampening the vibration. See "Physical and Environmental Specifications" on page 25
for information on mechanical shock and vibration.
