IBM - Keyboard shelf

The keyboard tray is a sliding tray for a keyboard and a pointing device (mouse or TrackPoint). It can support up to 24lb (11kg). The tray can hold two general sizes of keyboards: small and large. A small keyboard is supported in a ready to use position. Small keyboards may be a maximum of 14.25in (36.2cm) wide and 6.25in (15.9cm) deep. Larger standard keyboards that are accommodated may be up to 19.7in (50cm) wide and 6.25in (15.9cm) deep. Large keyboards are stored in the tray when not in use. When needed, the large keyboard must be lifted from inside the tray and laid across the tray for use. This allows many existing server keyboards to be used. Filler blocks are provided to enhance the fit of the keyboard in the tray. An 8ft (2.4m) extension cable set is included to connect the keyboard and pointing device to the rack console server selector switch or to the server. Keyboards that are up to 1.5in (3.8cm) high can be used with the new Rack Keyboard Tray in just 1U of rack space (1U equals 1.75 inches). Larger keyboards will require 2U of rack space. 19-inch rack mountable, sliding tray designed for holding the Space Saver Keyboard in a ready-to-use position in a Netfinity server rack-based solution.
