Server Cabinets

Server cabinets, also known as data cabinets or server rack cabinets, are crucial storage solutions for rack-mounted servers. These cabinets are designed to house 19in server racks, the industry standard, and come in various heights to accommodate the number of racks you need. Server cabinets can either be open-frame or enclosed, depending on your requirements.

Why Choose a Server Cabinet?

One of the primary benefits of using a server cabinet is security. Protecting your network and data is paramount, and mounting your server racks in a cabinet helps safeguard the hardware that powers your network. In addition to providing security, many rack cabinets are equipped with integrated features such as power management and distribution, cable management, and network connectivity. These features streamline network expansion, allowing you to simply add new servers to the existing cabinet when needed.

Some server cabinets also come with special features like soundproofing. These soundproof cabinets are ideal for office environments, as they reduce the noise generated by servers. With soundproofing, there is no need to dedicate a separate room for your equipment, allowing you to use office space efficiently without disturbing your team.

Choosing the Right Server Cabinet:-

When selecting a server cabinet, the size and number of racks you need to mount should be your primary consideration. Server racks are typically measured in rack units (U), where each unit is 44.5 mm tall. The most common server rack heights are 1U, 2U, 3U, and 4U, but half racks are also available, offering the same height but half the width.

Cabinet Sizes:-

Small Data Cabinets: Ideal for 1U to 10U server racks.
Medium Data Cabinets: Perfect for 11U to 25U server racks.
Large Data Cabinets: Suitable for 26U server racks and above.
