dimension of ibm server x-series?

Hi!

Our new servers will be x3550 and x3650 from IBM. I am a little bit
confused because I got different dimensions of the servers. One information
for a 3550 was 44cm (width) another information was about 48cm.
Does anyone have this two models an can tell me the real dimensions?
Otherwise I am not able to decide if my rack will be ok or I have to modify
it (buy a new one is no possibility).

Thanks

All servers are 19". The only problem may be your existing rack, it
should have perforated doors.

BTW, http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/x/hard...ack/index.html is the
only place where you should search for any relevant info.

With best regards,

Are you sure you are the correct person to install them, since
you appear to be severely limited in common intelligence:

48 cm = 19*2.54 is the dimension of the front bezel incl. the brackets.
48-2-2 = 44 cm is the internal (or back) dimension (without brackets)


Thanks
