So I just crunched the numbers. How many pies could I cram in a rack?
Check my numbers?
48U rack budget
6513 15U (48-15) = 33U remaining for pie
6513 max of 576 copper ports
Pi dimensions:
3.37 l (5 front to back)
2.21 w (6 wide)
0.83 h
25 per U (rounding down for Ethernet cable space etc) = 825 pi
Cable management and heat would probably kill this before it ever
reached completion, but lol...
