Each rack space is numbered for quick reference and supports tool-less button-mount installation of up to four compatible PDUs or cable managers.

All components are electrically bonded to the enclosure frame with front and rear threaded grounding points for facility earth connection. Preinstalled three-inch casters allow minor position adjustments on site while preinstalled levelers secure the frame in its final location.

Questions about this item

Does the SR42UBEXPNDNR3 generate any noise or heat during continuous operation?

The SR42UBEXPNDNR3 is a passive metal frame with no fans or power supply, so it produces no noise or heat itself; only the installed equipment contributes to thermal load.

What mounting hardware must I already have to install 19-inch equipment in this rack?

The package includes 50 M6 cage nuts and 50 M6 screws; if your devices use a different thread or you need more than 50 mounting points, you must supply the additional hardware.

Will my existing 19-inch gear with fixed-depth rails fit the adjustable rails on this frame?

The front and rear rails adjust in quarter-inch increments from 4 to 37 inches deep, so any standard 19-inch equipment with a mounting depth inside that range will align without modification.
