Advantages

This rail kit significantly enhances the versatility of your 600mm wide server rack by providing a secure and stable mounting platform for various networking and server components. The recessed design helps in managing complex cabling setups more effectively while ensuring that equipment remains properly ventilated. Its robust construction guarantees long-term reliability and structural integrity, making it an ideal choice for professional data center deployments where space optimization and equipment safety are paramount.

Suitable for

• Mounting networking equipment in 600mm wide racks
• Installing servers that require additional front-side clearance
• Optimizing cable management paths within the enclosure
• High-density IT infrastructure setups

When it may not be suitable

This kit is specifically designed for 42U enclosures with a 600mm width. It will not be compatible with racks of different heights or widths, nor is it intended for use with non-APC NetShelter SX series enclosures unless explicitly specified.

Key specifications

How to use

To install the rail kit, first ensure that the server rack is stabilized and powered down if necessary. Remove any existing mounting hardware that may interfere with the new rails. Align the recessed rails with the mounting holes at the desired height within the 42U enclosure. Secure the rails using the provided hardware, ensuring they are level and firmly attached to the vertical mounting profiles. Once the rails are securely in place, you can mount your networking or server equipment onto the rails according to the specific requirements of your hardware.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the exact model and width of your current server rack
• Ensure the rack height is exactly 42U
• Check the depth requirements of your equipment to ensure the recessed position is sufficient

Usage recommendations

Always verify that the total weight of the mounted equipment does not exceed the load-bearing capacity of the rack and the rail kit itself. Regularly inspect the mounting hardware to ensure it remains tight and secure over time.
