Product information

Description

The Rittal VX 8438.000 42U freestanding rack is a grey server cabinet designed for installations that accept 482.6 mm (19") assemblies and slide-in equipment. It provides front and rear mounting options with 19" adaptor sections integrated into the front frame, rear door, roof plate and divided gland plates, enabling standard rack-mounted components to be installed and accessed from both sides.

Advantages

This freestanding rack supports a full 42U mounting height in a compact footprint and features 19" adaptor sections at key access points for straightforward installation of standard server, networking and electronic equipment. The integrated divided gland plates and roof plate simplify cable entry and routing, while the grey finish offers a neutral appearance suitable for data rooms and technical environments.

Suitable for

Server and network equipment installations using 19" rack-mount hardware
Telecommunications and IT cabinets in server rooms and data centres
Electronic control systems and industrial automation racks

When it may not be suitable

This rack is built for standard 482.6 mm (19") assemblies; it is not suitable for non-standard or proprietary mounting widths without additional adapter hardware. If you require a different mounting depth, specialised airflow management, or a colour other than grey, consider alternative enclosures that match those specific needs.

Key specifications

Mounting height: 42U
Compatibility: 482.6 mm (19") assemblies and slide-in equipment
Front and rear 19" adaptor sections integrated into frame and doors
Cable entry: divided gland plates and roof plate with 19" adaptor sections
Type: freestanding rack/cabinet
Colour: grey

How to use

Position the rack on a level surface and ensure stable placement before installing equipment. Use the integrated 19" adaptor sections at the front frame and rear door to mount rack-mount servers, switches and other slide-in devices. Route cables through the divided gland plates or roof plate to keep wiring organised and to maintain access. Follow standard safety and grounding procedures during equipment installation.

What to consider before purchase

Confirm that your equipment uses the 482.6 mm (19") rack standard and fits within a 42U mounting height
Check the internal depth of the rack against the depth requirements of your servers and components
Consider cooling and cable management needs for your planned configuration
Ensure floor loading and footprint are appropriate for the installation site

Usage recommendations

Distribute equipment weight evenly and secure heavy devices at lower U positions. Use appropriate rails and mounting brackets for slide-in equipment and plan cable runs through the gland plates or roof plate to maintain airflow and accessibility.
