4-Post Server Rack Cabinet StarTech RK4236BKB 42U Black 907 kg

The StarTech 4-Post Server Rack Cabinet RK4236BKB is a freestanding 42U enclosure designed to securely store EIA-310 compliant 19" rack-mount equipment such as Dell, HP and IBM servers, networking and telecommunications devices, and A/V components. The cabinet is rated for a total load capacity of 907 kg (2000 lb.) and includes features for cable management, grounding and mobility.

Advantages

This 42U server rack arrives preassembled for fast deployment and includes adjustable mounting rails with a depth range from 6 to 36 in. (152.4 mm – 914.4 mm) to accommodate full-depth equipment and additional cabling behind mounted devices. The front and rear doors are lockable and mesh-designed to improve passive airflow; side panels are removable and lockable for secure but accessible maintenance. Top and bottom removable cable-access covers and a grounding wire (usable front or rear) simplify cable routing and equipment protection. Casters and leveling feet are installed for easy movement and stable placement, and the cabinet fits through standard doorways.

How to use

Position the cabinet where you plan to operate and, if moving, use the installed casters to roll it into place, then deploy the leveling feet for stable installation. Adjust the mounting rails to the required depth (6–36 in.) to fit your rack-mount equipment, secure the devices to the rails following standard 19" rack-mount procedures, and route cables through the removable top and bottom access panels. Install the grounding wire to the front or rear grounding point as needed, and lock the front, rear and side panels to secure equipment.

Usage recommendations

For best airflow, allow clearance at the front and rear of the rack and avoid blocking mesh door areas; distribute heavy equipment toward the lower U positions to maintain cabinet stability and use the leveling feet after moving to prevent rolling.
