200e

on second glance, i think i misunderstood yr intent. you are wondering
about installing 200e modules in an existing frac-rack enclosure (e.g.
http://www.paia.com/fracrak.htm ?), presumably with its own power
supply? this would be very difficult because 200e modules have
somewhat specialized power needs; for example, our supplies contain
dedicated rails for bussing data streams between modules and for
updating firmware. it would be much more advisable to get one of our
2- or 4-panel boats and work that into yr setup somehow.
