Abstract: Examples herein relate to intrusion switch. In particular, implementations herein relate to a computer system including a housing enclosing at least one electronic component therein. The housing includes a base and a removable cover. The cover is movable between engaged and disengaged positions relative to the base and extends over at least a portion of the base and is secured to the base in the engaged position. The cover is removable from the base when the cover is in the disengaged position. The computer system further includes an intrusion switch configured to detect access to an interior of the computer system. A portion of the cover extends through a slot in one of the sidewalls of the base and contacts the intrusion switch when the cover is in the engaged position. Contact between the cover and the intrusion switch is released when the cover is in the disengaged position such that the intrusion switch can detect when the cover is moved to the disengaged position.

Abstract: A fastener useable with a system board is provided herein. The fastener includes a fastener body and a spool. The fastener body has a mating member at one end and a threaded member at an opposite end. The mating member extends from the fastener body and positions the fastener body on a chassis. The spool engages with the threaded member of the fastener body and is secured to the chassis.

Abstract: A fastener useable with a peripheral component interconnect riser cage is provided herein. The fastener includes a body, a rotation limiter, and a housing. The body includes an engagement end that engages with a receptacle on a sub-pan and a cap end that positions the body. The rotation limiter includes a receiving member and a positioning member. The receiving member couples with the body. The positioning member extends from the rotation limiter to limit rotation of the body coupled thereto. The housing receives the rotation limiter and the body. The housing includes a rotation aperture that receives a positioning member such that the rotation limiter is rotatable along the rotation aperture. The housing further includes a lateral aperture to receive the body such that the body is inserted through the lateral aperture and coupled to the rotation limiter.

Abstract: A computer system comprising a plurality of electronic components disposed within a chassis. The electronic components generate a cooling load of at least 50 CFM at 2 inches of water or greater. An air mover is disposed within said chassis and is operable to generate airflow of at least 50 CFM at 2 inches of water or greater. An air distribution system is coupled to the air mover and is operable to distribute the airflow to the plurality of electronic components.

Abstract: A system for facilitating the mounting of circuit boards within an enclosure. The system includes one or more standoffs that are each received through appropriately formed corresponding openings through a printed circuit board. A flexible clip is attached to the printed circuit board proximate each opening. Each clip includes a retainer portion designed to receive the head of the standoff. Thus, the printed circuit board may be attached to the standoffs simply by placing the circuit board openings over the standoffs and moving the printed circuit board laterally until the clips and standoffs are engaged.

Abstract: An spacer assembly for spacing a circuit board from a chassis includes a plug that is adapted to extend through a mounting aperture in the chassis and a cap that is adapted to receive the plug in locking engagement for sandwiching the chassis therebetween. The cap has an upper wall that supports the circuit board and a skirt that extends from the upper wall to form a hollow interior that is sized to receive the plug. First cooperating structure on the plug and cap hold the plug within the hollow interior of the cap, while second cooperating structure on the plug and cap hold the chassis therebetween.
