The ES262T Series rack cabinets are a competitively priced range of floor-standing, 19 inch, steel-framed racks. These basic frames are available in two widths, four depths and a range of heights, finished in grey or black. They are supplied assembled, but can be supplied flat-packed to special order. Doors and side panels are not included, but are available separately.
The ES262BF series may be combined with accessories, including doors and side panels, to make up enclosed cabinets or bayed suites.
For assembled cabinets, complete with doors and side panels, see Canford Racks - ES262T Series Cabinets - Assembled and see 'Canford Racks - ES262T Series Cabinets - Flat packed.
Similar Cabinets, optimised for use with servers, are also offered, see Canford Racks - ES296S Series Cabinets - Server - Assembled.
The racks are available in four depths, 600mm, 800mm, 1000mm or 1200mm. Each rack has four pillars forming the frame of the rack, fixed to top and base frames. Horizontal cross-members fix to the pillars, front to back. Front and rear 'rack strip' mounting-profiles fix to the cross-members, and are adjustable through the depth of the cabinet, to suit installation of rack slides and deep or shallow equipment. The mounting-profiles have two sets of perforations to take cage nuts, to fix equipment both in the open faces of the rack and accessories, such as shelves and chassis guides, inside the rack. They have three apertures for cage nuts per 1U on each face and are screen-printed with 'U' height measurements to aid installation.
Top covers and bases have air vents. The top has a removable rectangular panel towards the rear for cable entry. Base plates are included; all or part can be removed for cable entry. Racks are supplied with a fitted earth-continuity kit and standard-duty 'transit' castors, 450kg maximum load per set of four.
The 800mm wide cabinets offer considerable space at either side of the mounting profiles, which are mounted on spacer-blocks to the horizontal cross-members. Optional, vertical, cable-management frames, with side and rear cable apertures, plastic rings and cover, can be front-mounted to the spacer blocks, see below.
