Rack mount cases are designed to fit into standard 19-inch racks. They can hold any electronic module, such as power units and disc players. They mount vertically onto metal rails on the sides of each shelf. Some cases fit into half a rack unit, others fill an entire unit, while others span two or more units.
Materials: Choose a rack mount case made of heavy-duty steel or aluminum. Steel is usually more expensive, but aluminum cases have better cooling capacities and may be better for heat-generating equipment, such as power modules.
Mounting: Choose a rack mount case that matches the mounting rails on the rack. Most racks require bolts to support the case. If the rack has square-holed rails, your case must be secured with cage nuts.
