Standard Rackcase

19” rack cases are designed to offer a simple solution to many 19” mounting applications. The design allows numerous combinations to be assembled according to the application and hence offers total flexibility for the design engineer, using common piece parts. It also allows the case to be presented in a number of attractive finishes for individual product tailoring of 19” mounting applications.
Standard 1U-4U Rackcase components may be ordered separately; alternatively 1U-6U Rackcases can be configured in which case they are supplied fully assembled. Accessories include chassis trays to aid the mounting of internal components.
