Not all racks are created equal. A common mistake is using a lightweight “network cabinet” to house heavy, deep, and power-hungry “servers.” This leads to critical failures: the rack sags under the weight, the deep server chassis won’t fit, and—most dangerously—the solid doors cause catastrophic overheating.
MechStream now offers the professional solution: a complete Network Server Racks drawing. This is a true server-grade enclosure blueprint, specifically engineered to handle the unique demands of high-density computing equipment (like Dell PowerEdge, HPE ProLiant, or Supermicro servers).
This drawing is designed for data centers, co-location facilities, and serious IT professionals. It details a heavy-duty, 4-post frame (e.g., 42U) built to handle a static load of over 1000kg. The design is optimized for a server-standard 1000mm-1200mm depth, ensuring your deepest chassis and cable management arms fit with ease.
Most importantly, our plan specifies high-flow perforated doors (over 80% perforation) to support the critical front-to-back airflow required by modern servers. By downloading our free CAD and PDF files, you can build a rack that provides the structural integrity and thermal management your mission-critical hardware demands.
Key Features:
- Heavy-Duty Load Rating: Engineered with a robust, reinforced 4-post frame designed for a high static load capacity (e.g., 1000kg+).
- Server-Depth Design: Features an adjustable 1000mm-1200mm depth to accommodate deep server chassis, rail kits, and cable management arms.
- High-Flow Perforation: Includes schematics for highly perforated front and rear doors (e.g., >80% open area) for maximum front-to-back airflow.
- EIA-310-E Standard Rails: Specifies adjustable-depth, 19-inch universal square-hole mounting rails for all compliant server hardware.
- Vertical PDU & Cable Management: Designed with zero-U space on the sides to mount vertical Power Distribution Units (PDUs) and high-capacity cable managers.
