42U server rack for standard 19-inch gear

This 42U cabinet accepts EIA-310 compliant 19-inch rack-mount equipment and ships fully assembled. Adjustable mounting rails slide from 3 to 37 inches deep to fit full-depth servers and networking hardware. Lockable front and rear mesh doors secure the installation while allowing passive airflow. Removable side panels with quick-release locks give fast access for maintenance.

Fits through doorways on included casters

The frame measures 23.62 inches wide and 78.46 inches high so it rolls through standard doorways without disassembly. Built-in casters provide mobility around the server room, while 100 mm leveling feet stabilise the rack once positioned. Stationary weight capacity reaches 3315 lb and rolling capacity is rated at 2320.50 lb. Extra interior width and depth leave room for cable routing and power distribution units.

200 M6 cage nuts plus tool-less 0U panels

Two 0U tool-less mounting panels install vertically without consuming rack units, freeing all 42U for active equipment. The bundle includes 200 M6 cage nuts and screws for fastening devices to the adjustable rails. A hook-and-loop tie is supplied for basic cable management. No additional mounting hardware is required to start loading the cabinet.
