Shelving
If you have electronic equipment that isn’t rack-mountable, you’ll need to invest in shelving.
You have a number of options when it comes to server rack shelves: adjustable or fixed
shelves, media shelves, sliding keyboard shelves and vented, heavy-duty or cantilever
shelves. When considering size, choose a shelf that has a depth of six inches less than the
total depth of the rack – so if you have a 30-inch deep cabinet, go for a shelf with a depth
of 24 inches.
Panels
Top panels protect your equipment from external materials and debris. With top paneling,
you can include perforated slots for added ventilation, mounting for exhaust fans and
grommet holes for auxiliary cable management.
Side panels provide security and are available as solid-fixed, solid-removable and solid with
vents (louvered).
If you’re still unsure or confused about the server rack buying process, don’t be
disheartened. It’s natural – there are a lot of components and considerations to keep in
mind, after all. Don’t risk making a mistake in measurement or overlookin g a critical detail –
