ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides, for use in a chassis configured to alternatively house first or second planar boards hating different thicknesses and daughter board side surfaces, a universal planar mount for supporting the planar board within the chassis. The universal planar may consist of a planar support coupled to a wall of the chassis that has first and second shoulders, preferably more than two, associated therewith that may be stair-stepped with respect to each other. The planar support may consist of a plurality of planar supports. In another aspect, the shoulders are formed in opposite side edges of the support walls. The first shoulder is engagable with the first planar board to mount the daughter board side surface of the first planar board a predetermined distance from the wall. Alternatively, the second shoulder is engagable with the second planar board to mount the daughter board side surface of the second planar board the same predetermined distance from the wall, thereby allowing either of the first or second planar boards to be used in the same chassis without modification to the chassis or accessory parts, such as the daughter boards.
