A Dedicated Server Cabinet 42U is a fully enclosed, free-standing structure designed to house and protect sensitive electronic equipment. The "42U" denotes its internal vertical space, equivalent to 73.5 inches (1866.9 mm) of usable mounting height, allowing it to hold a significant number of servers, switches, storage devices, and other rack-mounted gear.
This 42U server cabinet is the go-to choice for centralized IT deployments where maximizing space efficiency, security, and thermal management is paramount. It is the definitive solution for creating a organized, professional, and high-performance data center or server room.

Our Dedicated Server Cabinet 42U is engineered with precision to meet the rigorous demands of a 24/7 operational environment.
1. Heavy-Duty Construction & High Load Capacity
Robust Framework: Constructed from premium 1.2mm~1.5mm cold-rolled steel, with a reinforced frame capable of supporting static loads of up to 1200kg (2645 lbs).
9-Fold Bending Process: The main frame's unique construction provides exceptional structural integrity and stability, preventing sway and vibration.
Durable Finish: All components undergo a multi-stage pre-treatment and electrostatic powder coating for superior corrosion, scratch, and wear resistance.
2. Advanced Thermal Management for High Density
Optimized Airflow Design: Features fully ventilated front and rear doors with a high perforation rate (>60%) to facilitate efficient front-to-back cooling.
Integrated Fan Options: Pre-configured mounting points for standard 120mm/140mm fans on the top and rear door, enabling active heat exhaust in high-power-density setups.
Cooling Ready: Easily accommodates the installation of dedicated air conditioning units and blanking panels to prevent hot/cold air mixing, maximizing cooling efficiency.
3. Superior Cable Management System
Comprehensive Routing: Includes vertical and horizontal cable management bars, brush strips, and D-rings to neatly guide and secure vast quantities of power and data cables.
Dedicated Pathways: Designed with separate channels for power and data cables to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and simplify maintenance.
Ample Access: Large, grommeted openings at the top and bottom facilitate easy ingress and egress for large cable bundles.
4. Enhanced Security and Access Control
Robust Locking: Standard three-point locking mechanism on the front and rear doors ensures physical security. Lock cores can be keyed alike upon request.
Solid Side Panels: Removable solid side panels prevent unauthorized lateral access and help contain airflow within a hot/cold aisle containment system.
Optional Tempered Glass Door: Available for a modern aesthetic that allows for visual equipment monitoring without compromising security.

Maximized Space Utilization: The 42U height offers the highest standard capacity, allowing you to consolidate more equipment into a smaller footprint, reducing your overall data center space requirements.
Proven Manufacturing Quality: As a direct sheet metal manufacturer, we guarantee precision, consistency, and durability in every 42U rack we produce.
Full Customization: We understand that standards can vary. We offer extensive customization in dimensions, perforation patterns, color, and branding to meet your exact specifications.

Large Corporate Server Rooms: Centralizing IT infrastructure for large offices, universities, and government facilities.
Colocation Facilities: Providing customers with a secure, standard-sized space for their hosted equipment.
Broadcasting and Media: Housing extensive audio/video processing and rendering farm equipment.

Q1: What are the exact dimensions of a 42U server cabinet?
A: While the internal height is standardized at 42U (73.5"), the external dimensions vary. A typical 42U server cabinet might be around 78.7" (2000mm) tall, 24" (600mm) or 30" (800mm) wide, and 42" (1067mm) or 48" (1200mm) deep. We provide custom dimensions.
Q2: Is the 42U cabinet delivered fully assembled?
A: For safe and cost-effective shipping, our 42U server racks are typically shipped KD (knocked down) with all parts and detailed instructions for easy on-site assembly. Pre-assembly services may be available upon request.
Q3: Can the cabinet support the weight of fully loaded blade server chassis?
A: Absolutely. Our Dedicated Server Cabinet 42U is engineered with a heavy-duty frame and a static load capacity of up to 1200kg, making it perfectly suited for dense configurations like blade server enclosures and UPS systems.
Q4: What cooling solutions are recommended for a fully loaded 42U cabinet?
A: For high-density setups, we recommend implementing a hot/cold aisle containment strategy. Within the cabinet, use blanking panels for all unused U-spaces and consider our optional fan panels for active exhaust. For extreme densities, a dedicated in-row or top-mounted cooling unit may be necessary.
Q5: Do you offer accessories for these cabinets?
A: Yes, we offer a complete ecosystem of accessories, including:
Power: Horizontal and Vertical PDUs (Standard and Smart).
Support: Fixed and sliding server shelves.
Cooling: Fan trays and brush panels.
Management: Cable management arms and blanking panels.
Q6: What is the lead time for a standard 42U cabinet order?
A: The lead time for a standard configuration is typically 15-20 working days. Customized orders may take 20-30 working days. We always confirm the timeline upon order confirmation.
