NavePoint announced the company’s new line of 23-inch-wide two-post and four-post server racks. This large mounting width can accommodate wider telecom, broadcast, audiovisual, server, and more, but it does also fit standard 19-inch-wide gear. The server racks are suitable for higher-density installations that require more cable connections.
The open-frame racks have standing models of two-post and four-post and two-post wall-mount options. All the racks are made of “heavy duty cold-rolled steel with a protective black powder-coat finish”.
NavePoint’s four-post floor racks have a variety of capacities including 25U, 42U, or 45U, with each being able to support 881 pounds of equipment. The exterior width measures at 27.3 inches and has a mounting depth of 24 inches, this makes the racks large enough to house most components while they still remain compact enough to fit into smaller places like IT closets. For mounting, there is the option of threaded holes or square holes.
The two-post floor racks have the same capacities of 25U, 42U, and 45U, however, they can’t hold as much weight as the four-post with their ability being 750 pounds. Unlike the four-post though these racks can fit in smaller spaces with their 24.3-inch exterior width and 14-inch-deep floor base. Consumers again have the choice of threaded or square holes for mounting.
The company’s 23-inch-wide two-post wall racks come in two capacities, 6U or 9U. While their threaded mounts only hold up to 100 pounds, they can fit in the smallest areas with their 25-inch-width and 24-inch-depth.
A line of accessories accompanies this new line that fits the 23-inch-width, including, but not limited to, shelves, drawers, a horizontal cable manager, adapter brackets, and more.
“Wider racks allow you to keep a greater variety of components in one convenient space,” said Product Line Manager Tim Houghton. “The added roominess also improves ventilation and gives you more space for cables, and installation and maintenance are easier.”
