42U Open Frame Server Rack

The VIVO 42U open frame server rack provides a mobile four-post platform for servers, UPS units, patch panels, switches and other networking or AV equipment. Adjustable depth from 22 to 40 inches lets you match the frame to your hardware while the open design maximises airflow for cooling. Solid steel construction supports up to 1200 lbs of equipment. Four casters and optional leveling feet offer both mobility and stationary stability.

Adjustable Depth Replaces Fixed-Depth Cabinets

This rack replaces fixed-depth cabinets when equipment depths vary or when future hardware may be deeper than current gear. The 22-to-40-inch range with precise one-inch adjustment markings lets you reconfigure the frame without buying a new enclosure. The jump is worth it when you need to accommodate mixed device lengths or want a single rack that can adapt as your deployment changes over time.

Suits Mobile Data Centres and AV Installations

This rack suits IT teams and AV integrators who need a movable, high-capacity frame that fits through standard doorways and into utility closets. Builders who require enclosed sides for security, dust protection or seismic bracing should look at enclosed cabinets instead. Environments that demand a static bolted-down frame without casters will also find better options elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How much floor depth do I need for the 22 to 40 adjustable depth range?

The rack frame is 23.5 inches wide and the depth adjusts from 22 to 40 inches in 1 inch increments, so allow at least the maximum 40 inches plus clearance for cables and caster swing.

Which hardware do I use first when assembling the four vertical rails to the base?

Start by bolting the two side frames to the bottom cross-members using the supplied bolts and washers; the instructions show this step first, and skipping it makes the rack unstable before the rails are added.

When should I swap the 2 inch casters for the included leveling feet?

Replace the casters with the leveling feet once the rack is in its final position and loaded, so the frame sits solid on uneven floors and cannot roll during equipment maintenance.
