Rack stacking and cooling
- Leave **vertical clearance** between stacked boxes—do not seal heat between chassis without ducted airflow.
- Plan **rear exhaust** path; ambient room ideally below ~26°C for 24/7 burn-in.
- **PDU sizing:** dedicated **10 A** circuit per box (+25% headroom) on a labeled farm PDU strip.
- Enterprise racks: document **U position**, serial per box, and VLAN per rack row for LAN OTG scans.
Scaling beyond one box
- **USB mirroring:** ~1 box per USB host controller; ~2 boxes with dual USB controller cards on the control PC.
- **LAN OTG:** additional boxes on the same farm VLAN after USB authorization.
- **40+ nodes:** primary + backup control PC and gigabit switch per rack—see /help/large-farm-network-deployment.
MOQ, lead time, and export
- Sample and single-box quotes available; bulk discounts commonly from **5+ units**.
- Standard lead time **7–21 business days** after order confirmation; custom mixes **14–30 days**.
