1.3 Physical package
Table 1-2 lists the physical dimensions of individual system nodes and of the PCIe I/O
expansion drawer.
The system node requires 4U, and the PCIe I/O expansion drawer requires 4U. Thus, a
single-enclosure system with one PCIe I/O expansion drawer requires 8U.

To assure installability and serviceability in non-IBM industry-standard racks, review the
installation planning information for any product-specific installation requirements.
Figure 1-3 shows a picture of a Power E850C system node from the front.
