42U Open Frame Server Rack

The iStarUSA WX-428 is a 42U four-post open frame rack built from SPCC steel with 2.0 mm horizontal and vertical rails and a 1.2 mm top panel. It provides 75 inches of internal height and supports chassis depths of 29 inches and under. The unit measures 23.50 by 82.50 by 31.50 inches and weighs 2200 lbs. It meets RoHS compliance standards.

Suits data centres needing high-density mounting

This rack suits installers who need universal fit for most rackmount chassis with fully adjustable horizontal rails and locking casters for stability. It is not for buyers who require enclosed sides or doors for security or airflow management. It is not for sites where floor loading cannot accommodate 2200 lbs or where ceiling height restricts an 82.50 inch tall frame.

Check floor load and clearance before ordering

Verify that the installation floor can support 2200 lbs concentrated on the caster points. Confirm the room provides at least 82.50 inches of vertical clearance and sufficient aisle width for the 31.50 inch depth. Ensure all equipment to be mounted fits within the 29 inch maximum chassis depth and 75 inch usable height.

Questions about this item

Which rackmount servers or network gear will fit inside the 42U height and 29-inch depth limit of the WX-428?

Any standard 19-inch rackmount chassis up to 29 inches deep and within the 42U vertical space will mount on the fully adjustable rails of the WX-428.

Can I keep using my existing 19-inch patch panels and shelf accessories with the WX-428's SPCC 2.0 mm vertical rails?

Yes, the universal 19-inch hole pattern on the 2.0 mm SPCC vertical rails accepts all standard patch panels, shelves and cable managers you already own.

How do I confirm the WX-428 is level and stable after positioning it on its locking casters?

Engage the locking mechanism on each caster, then verify the frame does not rock and that the top panel sits flush at the 82.50-inch height.
