10-inch rack DATACOM 9U 140 grey — compact 9U network/server rack, 140 mm depth

Compact 10-inch DATACOM 9U 140 grey is a small network and server rack engineered for installation in confined spaces. The cabinet provides 9U of mounting height on a 10-inch frame with 140 mm internal depth, delivering a solution for compact switches, patch panels and terminal devices. Its metal construction ensures mechanical stability while front and rear access panels make mounting and cable management straightforward. The neutral grey finish integrates into telecom rooms, small server closets and office network points.

Advantages

The rack combines a compact footprint with a standard 9U vertical space, enabling organized equipment mounting where floor area is limited. A shallow 140 mm depth is specifically suited to low-profile network devices and passive panels while keeping cabling accessible. Robust metal panels and frame provide secure support for mounted units and help dissipate heat through openwork and ventilated panels. Removable front and rear doors allow quick access for installation and maintenance without disturbing adjacent infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Mounting compact switches and unmanaged network devices
• Patch panels and small fiber or copper termination blocks
• Wall- or shelf-mounted installations in telecom cabinets and closets
• Edge network points in offices, retail or small branch locations

Key specifications

• Form factor: 10-inch rack frame with 9U usable mounting height
• Internal depth: 140 mm suitable for low-profile equipment
• Construction: steel frame and panels for stable mounting
• Access: front and rear removable panels for equipment access and cabling
• Finish: grey paint for neutral appearance in technical rooms

How to use

Position the rack where the intended devices and cabling can be routed easily, ensuring adequate ventilation around the unit. Install the rack to a wall or shelf according to mounting instructions and secure it to structural supports if required. Fit equipment to the 10-inch mounting rails using appropriate cage nuts and screws, ensuring correct alignment and even weight distribution. Route power and data cables through the available openings, and close front and rear panels after completing connections to protect equipment and reduce dust ingress.

Usage recommendations

Use the rack for low-profile network gear and patching where a full-depth cabinet is unnecessary. Verify device depth before installation to ensure compatibility with the 140 mm internal depth. For active equipment with higher heat output or multiple power supplies, provide additional ventilation or situate the rack in a cooled room. Periodically check mounting hardware and cable strain relief to maintain safe and reliable operation.
