What is the purpose of a relay rack?
A relay rack, also known as a server rack or network rack, is a customizable, fire-rated steel or aluminum frame used to store and organize networking and communications equipment such as computers, network servers, patch panels, and rack mount peripherals. It provides a secure and organized solution for mounting and housing essential IT equipment.
Why are racks 19 inches?
The standard 19-inch rack width can be traced back to George Westinghouse in 1890, who used 19-inch shelving to house railroad relay gear. Telephone companies later adopted this width, and the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standardized the 19-inch rack structure with its 310-D standard in 1965. This width became the industry standard for compatibility and ease of equipment installation.
What does 42U rack mean?
A rack unit (U or RU) is a unit of measurement for equipment racks and the devices they contain. One U equals 1.75 inches (44.45mm). A standard 42U rack is 42 rack units or 73.5 inches (1.87m) in height, providing ample space to mount various rack mount devices and servers.
What is the difference between 2 post and 4 post racks?
2 post racks have two uprights to support equipment, while 4 post racks have four uprights, providing a more stable foundation. 2 post racks are commonly used for networking equipment like switches, routers, and patch panels, while 4 post racks are suitable for heavier server installations. 4 post racks generally have a higher price point but offer increased stability and load capacity.
How deep should a 19-inch rack be?
A standard 19-inch rack is typically 600 millimeters (24 inches) wide and 36 inches (914.40 mm) deep. The depth you need often depends on cabling access and power distribution requirements, but 36 inches is a common depth that accommodates most rack mount equipment and allows for proper airflow and cable management.
