Height
State usable rack units and whether the count includes a top fan tray. A 42U frame and a 45U frame can share a 600 mm footprint and still miss a raised-floor clearance by about 133 mm, which is three rack units.
TELECOM INFRASTRUCTURE
Custom server rack cabinets matched to a written brief
LinkScope Sourcing 45 is an independent sourcing partner. A buyer uses this desk to name height in rack units, external width, usable depth, static load, and door style, then ask factories to quote that same cabinet. The desk does not weld frames and does not publish a warehouse count.
- 1 rack unit = 1.75 in (44.45 mm)
- 19 in (482.6 mm) EIA-310 panel opening
- 42U, 45U, or 48U as buyer-stated heights
- US destination and cabinet quantity
Quote scope before any cabinet figure is compared
A headline cabinet number is not comparable until the sheet lists the same steel, the same doors, and the same freight basis. Write each cell as mandatory, preferred, or unknown. Unknown stays unknown until a named model answers it.
Width and depth
Record external width as 600 mm or 800 mm, and usable depth as a millimeter figure such as 1000 mm or 1200 mm. The 19 in rail opening is not the external width.
Load
Separate static load from rolling load. If the brief says 800 kg static, that figure is a buyer requirement, not a rating this desk assigns. Ask which test method and safety factor the drawing uses.
Doors and air
Perforated, mesh, or solid doors change cooling or airflow. Side panels, a lock, brush strips, and a bonding bar are extra lines. Power over Ethernet wattage is not a cabinet parameter.
Cabinet family rows on this desk
Each row is a procurement task inside Telecom Infrastructure. It is not a stocked SKU. Follow the row that matches the decision you still have open.
Custom server rack cabinets
Use the home brief when the open questions are height, width, depth, load, and door style for a floor cabinet. Start from EIA-310 rail geometry, then add site limits such as a doorway of 800 mm or a slab rating the facilities team already measured.
Send the cabinet briefCustom server rack enclosure
Move to the inquiry rows when the question is an enclosed body rather than an open four-post frame: lockable sides, a specific perforation pattern, and whether casters ship installed. An empty image means no photo is on file for that label.
Computer server rack for sale
The sale brief lists the commercial cells a factory must fill before two offers can sit on one sheet: Incoterm, packing, duties, and what the unit figure excludes. A phrase about a cabinet being for sale does not mean this desk holds one.
4U server rack price and custom AC server rack
A short cabinet and a climate cabinet are different jobs. The 4U price path separates a 4U-tall box from a tall cabinet that will hold a 4U chassis. The quick spec brief records heat load, supply voltage, and condensate for an air-conditioned enclosure.
Delivery questions to settle before the comparison
When does the week count start?
Ask whether the stated weeks begin at drawing approval, at a steel lot, or at a deposit. A 6-week sentence without that start point cannot be lined up against another offer. This desk does not publish a lead time of its own.
What leaves the plant with the frame?
Doors, side panels, baying kits, leveling feet, and casters are often optional. Pallet height matters when the receiving dock has a 2100 mm door. Write the packed height the supplier will actually ship.
Who handles the US destination?
Name the ship-to city or site, the Incoterm, and whether duties sit inside the figure. A cabinet quoted EXW and a cabinet quoted DDP are not the same procurement scope even when the rack unit count matches.
What evidence travels with the model name?
Request the current drawing, the load note, and the door perforation description tied to the exact model. A family photo is not measurement accuracy for the frame on the purchase order. Calibration traceability applies if the supplier cites a load test; ask which instrument and which date.
Send the spec for a factory review
The form collects the cabinet requirement. Optional budget needs a currency and a per-cabinet or whole-order basis. High-end, mid-range, budget, or undecided is your preference, not a factory grade.
- Rack units, external width, usable depth.
- Static load as a requirement you set, with the unit in kilograms or pounds.
- Door style, side panels, and installation environment.
- Quantity, US destination, and the timing start point.
Runtime stays blank unless a UPS is in the same order. Outlet or branch count stays blank unless a power strip is in that order. Switching capacity and optical budget belong on the active gear, not on the steel.
