that way I can standardize even small sites, which can grow..

We are about 98% sure we have a rackmount enclosure
manufacturer which we can
work with. Domestic. Product looks decent. Price is right.
Which means it's time to nail down a few details here, such as
number of ports,
so I can get some enclosures cut and boards made and hopefully
get this
elephant out of the room....
So I need some input:
The rough figures I'm working with here is $800 for a 18 port
rackmount power
injector. Voltage and pinning jumper selectable per port.
Per-port control of
power and sync. Probably some redundant power and other things
built in, but
I'm still nailing those details down (a lot of it comes down
to space on the
front panel of the enclosure).
PLEASE NOTE: The prices here are soft - until I get the design
completed I won't
know what I can sell this for - as many of you know I try to
price things at a
fair price as opposed to what the market will bear.
The main questions I have for the list are:
Is 18 the correct number of ports? 18 is looking like about
the most I can fit
based on front panel dimensions. This corresponds to 3 blocks
of 6 ports (if
you lose a port and need to replace it, you'd replace 6 at a
time).
Other options are 16 (4 blocks of 4), and pretty much any
smaller quantities of
ports which are divisible by 4 or 6.
I guess what I'm really asking here is whether the 18 port
version for $800 is
the only version of this I should make or carry, or does it
make sense to sell
(as an example) an 8 port version for $400 instead of or in
addition to this?
