19 Inch Racks for Computer and Network Equipment
A 19-inch equipment rack is a standardized frame or enclosure for mounting computer equipment modules. Each module has a front panel that is 19 inches (480 mm) wide, including edges or ears that protrude on each side which allow the module to be fastened to the rack frame with screws.
Four and Two Post Racks
Computer and network equipment racks are available with either four or two vertical rails. Four-post racks allow for mounting slides to support the equipment at the front and rear. These racks may be open in construction or enclosed by doors, side panels and tops. Two-post racks provide just two vertical rails; a piece of equipment can be mounted either via its front panel holes, or close to its center of gravity to minimize load on its front panel. Two-post racks are most often used for telecommunication installations.
Measuring Rack Unit Height
A rack unit or U (less commonly, RU) is a unit of measure used to describe the height of equipment intended for mounting in a 19-inch rack. The 19 inch dimension refers to the width of the equipment that can be mounted inside the rack. One rack unit is more commonly written as “1U” and 1.75 inches (44.45 mm)high. Similarly, 2 rack units are “2U” and so on.
