Estimated thickness, External ports? about expansionbay

[NickelLiang]

Also want to have more details about the dimensions of the housing, also planning on an industry-specific expansion module.

We already know that our expansion module definitely will not fit in the standard Expansion Bay Shell, so a reference design for Graphics Module / no Z-height limitation module will be of great help for us to evaluate the feasibility of implementing our solution as a module for Framework 16.

Thanks!

Going to quickly bump this.

Details regarding the housing design and base construction are very important for custom module design. Expanding the housing from a base model is easy if you don't have to reconstruct all of the housing in contact with the laptop beforehand (Connectors, rails, etc). Also helpful if you plan to produce a module for a shell before you have the laptop on hand. Then you can at least begin the initial design and build stage before proper testing.

Additionally, the ExpansionCards repo has ./Mechanical containing their housing construction designs.
