The CR42U11001 from CyberPower is a 42 RU Carbon-Series rack enclosure designed to securely house and protect EIA-310 compliant 19” equipment for technicians and engineers in network applications, lab and test systems, and high-density server installations. The built-in rails provide 42 numbered rack spaces and adjustable rack angles.

The roof, doors, and side panels can be removed to suit access or ventilation requirements. The front and rear doors are perforated metal, which provides airflow for equipment cooling. Split rear doors allow full door swing with only 12.5” of clearance. For increased security, the doors and side panels are lockable.

Pre-installed casters and leveling feet deliver stability and ease of movement. Cable access openings and rear accessory channels greatly simplify cable management. The rack’s integrated electrical grounding features multiple points for facility grounding, and quick-release ground wires for the doors.

Perforated front and rear doors provide ventilation for servers and networking equipment

The front door has a simple lift off design for easy removal and reverse installation

Large toolless cable access slots in the roof provide access for overhead cable egress. The bottom design allows for unobstructed cable access through a raised floor

Rack is compatible with all EIA-310 compliant 19" equipment

Vertical rack angles can be adjusted in 1/4" increments for mounting depth requirements up to 36". Depth index numbering ensures quick and consistent rail placement. Rack units are numbered front and back for easy equipment installation

Split rear doors improve equipment access and reduce floor space requirements. Only 12.5" of clearance is needed behind the enclosures to allow for door swing

Rear accessory channels extend the full height of the enclosure. These integrated, adjustable channels provide zero RU mounting locations for toolless accessories. Mounting slots are arranged in an industry-standard pattern compatible with a variety of accessories. Each channel can accommodate two vertical PDUs or cable managers side by side (four items per enclosure). Channels are pre-installed in the rear of the enclosure but can be moved to other locations

A high-precision frame design, heavy-gauge mounting rails, and casters provide for 3000-lb static (leveling feet) and 2250-lb dynamic (caster) load ratings

Adjacent enclosures can be joined at 24" centers to match standard data center floor tiles

The roof, side panels, and doors are grounded to the enclosure frame, which has multiple connections for facility grounding. Front and rear doors include quick-release ground wires
