The RESISTER 19-inch Mounting Profile Extension Set is a specialized accessory designed to enhance the configuration capabilities of PRO series server cabinets with an external width of 800 mm. This set provides an additional 19-inch mounting level, allowing for more versatile equipment placement within the rack. By adding these vertical profiles, users can effectively increase the density of installed hardware, such as patch panels, switches, and servers, while maintaining organized cable management.
Advantages
This extension set offers significant benefits for data center and server room management by providing a secondary mounting plane. The robust construction ensures that the profiles can support the weight of standard network equipment without compromising the structural integrity of the cabinet. By utilizing the extra space in 800 mm wide cabinets, this solution facilitates better airflow and more efficient routing of patch cables, which is essential for maintaining a clean and functional server environment.
Suitable for
- Expanding mounting capacity in 800 mm wide server cabinets
- Installing additional patch panels or network switches
- Creating secondary mounting levels for complex cable management
- Upgrading existing PRO series rack configurations
When it may not be suitable
This extension set is specifically engineered for PRO series server cabinets with an external width of 800 mm. It is not compatible with cabinets of different widths or non-PRO series models, as the mounting points and dimensions will not align correctly.
Key specifications
- Compatibility: PRO series server cabinets with 800 mm external width
- Height: 25U
- Quantity: 1 pair (2 vertical profiles)
- Mounting standard: 19-inch
How to use
To install the profiles, ensure the server cabinet is powered down and stabilized. Align the vertical profiles with the designated mounting points inside the 800 mm wide cabinet. Secure the profiles using the provided hardware, ensuring they are level and firmly attached to the frame. Once installed, you can mount your 19-inch rack-mountable equipment onto these new profiles using standard cage nuts and screws.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that your server cabinet is a PRO series model
- Confirm the external width of your cabinet is exactly 800 mm
- Check the available vertical space to ensure 25U clearance
- Ensure you have the necessary tools for installation
Usage recommendations
Regularly inspect the mounting hardware to ensure all connections remain tight, especially after adding heavy equipment. Ensure that the added weight does not exceed the total load capacity of the server cabinet frame.
