Creating a Device type for a device that is half width or shelf mounted

[Fjord-of-the-RIngs]

I'm in the pre-deployment phase with Netbox - I'm just getting my feet wet before my company decides if it's a tool we can use. We use some devices that are smaller than a typical rack mounted device that live in the rack either racked side by side or mounted to a rack shelf. How would I accurately represent that when creating the device type. Is there a way to manually add device dimensions?

• For reference the devices is question are networked video transmitters from Crestron
• Model: HD-MD-400
  This is just one specific example but a lot of the networked devices used in the AV industry are sometimes half rack mount and or shelf mounted.

Another example of this would be an Extron DMP 64 which is 1U high, half rack wide - Meaning It occupies 1RU of space but Multiple devices can also occupy that same vertical RU space.

See #2467 I am not sure it is a very satisfactory answer. We have the same all kinds of custom equipment that are the same. Create a parent 1U 2 BAY Shelf and put the devices in it.

That'll have to do

The parent devices hold child device in different bays. How can I make it so that the child devices are either represented or documented in the same location as the parent?

A bay can be arbitrary. Left, Right, 1,2,34, etc.

I see that now, This answer helped.
