Square to round hole rack adapters

[Rob Leadbeater]

Hi all,

Not really a SAN question, but I'll try here first...

Does anyone know a part number or vendor for the alignment washers or adapter washers used in the SAN Switch 2/32 rack mount kit. See page 10 of this PDF:

http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/lpg29400.pdf

Picture attached.

I'm trying to mount some kit designed for a round hole rack in a square hole rack, and getting hold of quite a few of these would be very useful...

Cheers,

Rob

Washer will be part of Shock Pallet kit.

Spare part no. will depend on type of rack you have ... for HP 10000 G2 rack it is 385976-001

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info. however I don't really want to spend nearly £200 on a shock pallet, just to get adapters that probably cost a few pennies to make...!

Any other ideas ?

Cheers,

Rob

Search for washer in this pdf, you'll find few different washers with respective part no.

Hi,

I've taken a look through that doc, but none of the washers appear to be like the ones I'm looking for...

They must be available somewhere...!

Cheers,

Rob,

Did you ever locate the washers you were looking for? I'd like to find the same washer.

Hi Justin,

No never managed to find a supplier, although they can be found in most Brocade rack mount kits.

I tried getting in touch with the company who appeared to supply these to Brocade, but never got any response.

Cheers,

Rob
