The commonly used rack rackmount network cabinet sizes are as follows:
width
600mm: relatively common, suitable for installation of general scale network equipment, can meet the installation needs of most standard 19 inch devices, and has a compact space utilization.
800mm: commonly used in scenarios with a large number of cables, providing more space for cable management and facilitating equipment wiring and maintenance.
depth
600mm: Suitable for installing network devices with smaller depths, such as small switches, routers, etc., which are more practical in environments with limited space.
800mm: Widely applicable and compatible with various network devices, including servers and firewalls with slightly deeper depths, making it a relatively balanced choice.
900mm, 960mm: Provides more ample space for device installation and cable management, suitable for scenarios with high requirements for device layout and heat dissipation.
1000mm, 1100mm, 1200mm: Usually used in large data centers or places where a large number of devices need to be installed, it can meet the installation needs of high-end servers, storage devices, etc. with a large depth, and is also convenient for cable organization and maintenance operations.
height
6U, 8U, 10U, 12U: relatively low in height, generally used for small office or home network environments, can install a small number of network devices, and occupies less space.
24U: With a height of about 1.2 meters, it is suitable for scenarios that require moderate equipment quantity and space, such as network rooms in small businesses.
32U, 36U: Can accommodate more devices, commonly used in medium-sized network environments, can meet the centralized installation and management needs of network devices of a certain scale.
42U, 47U: With a height of about 2 meters, they are the most commonly used sizes in large network environments such as data centers. They can accommodate a large number of servers, switches, and other devices, providing efficient space utilization and convenient device management.
