Potential bracket options #3

Closed tyrells closed 1 year ago

tyrells commented 1 year ago

I was just doing some searching for other potential back bracket options:

The screw holes are in different places, so this would need a PCB change, but that may be a good option assuming the Keystone Electronics 9202-1 bracket isn't coming back in stock.

Unfortunately those brackets are made for PCI cards so the mounting holes are on the other side of the bracket. Standoffs might solve that problem, though...

I didn't realize that. Thank you. I will keep looking.

If there are people who have zero other viable bracket options, I would be happy to accurately drill out a 9202 bracket at no additional cost, and send it out... but the necessary cost of international shipping means it would only be a worthwhile option for those who are very keen indeed (edit: I've just checked, and the post cost from me to the US or UK is literally about US$20, for the smallest possible package, so.......). Nonetheless feel free to contact me if you're all out of other options. First, consider finding a local place who could drill one for you.

Alternatively (and probably more cheaply and conveniently), you may be able to use online 3d printing services, and have the existing plastic bracket design printed and sent to you.
