Abstract

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a system may include a structural member and an isolator/guide. The structural member may define at least a portion of each of two laterally adjacent bays, each bay for receiving a respective modular information handling resource. The isolator/guide may be mechanically coupled to the structural member and include at least one guide pin and a vibrational isolator. The at least one guide pin may be configured to engage with modular information handling resources disposed in each of the two laterally adjacent bays in order to mechanically guide the modular information handling resources during insertion into and removal from the bays. The vibrational isolator may be mechanically coupled between the structural member and the at least one guide pin such that the vibrational isolator provides vibrational isolation between the at least one guide pin and the structural member.
