Space problem of sheet metal server cabinet

The “U” of the server we usually call is a unit that represents the external size of the server. It is an abbreviation of unit, which is determined by the American Electronics Industry Association (EIA), an industry group. The reason for specifying the size of the server is to keep the server in a proper size so that it can be placed on an iron or aluminum rack.

Plan and list all equipment installed in the cabinet and their complete measurement data: height, length, width and weight. The volume and space occupation of these devices will ultimately determine how high the cabinet you will choose. Obviously, a high cabinet can fit more equipment and save more space. It is not the only consideration to make full use of the height of the cabinet. There is also a lot of space at the rear of the cabinet. This is the reason to measure the depth of the cabinet. If you choose a deeper cabinet, you can install two sets of equipment back-to-back, so as to install more equipment. After calculating the cabinet space (in “U” or 1.75 inches), the size of the cabinet should also be considered. No one would like to see that after the cabinet is full, they will soon find that they need to install some more equipment. Therefore, as a basic principle, the cabinet height should be increased by 20% to 30% for system expansion. These spaces also improve the ventilation conditions of the equipment.
