Tripp Lite SmartRack 12U Standard-Depth 4-Post Open Frame Rack

The Tripp Lite SR12UBEXPNDKD is a 12U, four post open frame rack designed for installers who need a straightforward way to mount EIA-standard 19-inch equipment and still keep everything easy to reach.

The frame is built from heavy duty steel and carries up to 1,000 pounds, so it can hold servers, network switches, patch panels, or audio and video gear without flexing. Because it accepts devices up to 36 inches deep, you can mix compact edge appliances with full-sized hardware on the same rack.

An open frame structure promotes unobstructed airflow, which helps sensitive electronics stay within safe operating temperatures. There are no doors or side panels in the way, so technicians can troubleshoot or swap devices in moments instead of minutes.

Casters arrive pre-installed, letting you roll the rack into a small office, a retail stockroom, a classroom lab, or any secure IT closet and then lock it in place when you are done. Assembly is straightforward with common hand tools, and the toolless button holes down the rails make it simple to attach vertical PDUs and cable managers so cords stay tidy.

A five year limited warranty rounds out the package and gives peace of mind that the rack will serve reliably through multiple hardware refresh cycles.
