  • Publication number: 20110279973
    Abstract: A bezel lock system for use with an information handling system including one or more components disposed in a server chassis mounted in a bay of a rack system is disclosed. The bezel lock system may include a rack ear associated with the server chassis, a slam latch, a bezel, and a rotating lock. The slam latch may be disposed at least in part within the rack ear and configured to automatically engage the rack ear with the rack system as the server chassis slides into the rack bay. The rack ear may only be disengaged from the rack system if the slam latch is released. The bezel may be configured to attach to the front of the server chassis and prevent removal of any components through the front panel of the server chassis. The rotating lock may be associated with the bezel and restrict removal of the bezel from the server chassis while in the locked position. The lock may be further configured to restrict release of the slam latch while in the locked position.
