669 Why are both Thunderbolt connectors on the outside of the xMac Mini Server if one needs to connect inside?May-22-19
Thunderbolt connectors need to be in close physical proximity due to the very high speed board layout requirements. Sonnet thought it important to put the connectors outside to give rear panel access to connect additional Thunderbolt devices.
 
670 Why isn't a rack slide set included?May-23-19
Sonnet wanted to support both deep server room racks as well as shallow portable racks (the xMac mini server is only 18" deep.) Because we couldn't accomodate the full range of rack depths, we unbundled the rack kits to give the users the flexibility to mount the xMac mini Server in racks 18" to 32.5" deep.

1106 Can I use Wi-Fi and Bluetooth when my Mac mini is mounted in xMac mini Server?Nov-04-21
1107 How do I get effective Wi-Fi and Blutooth when my Mac mini is mounted in xMac mini Server editiion?Jun-29-20
The steel mounting case effectively shields the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth antenna from effective use. For Wi-Fi, some customers have used the Edimax EW-7822ULC external USB 2.0 wi-fi adapter, or the faster Edimax EW-7822UTC external USB 3.0 wi-fi adapter. Sonnet does not have a recommendation for Blutooth.
