What is an equipment rack in networking?
An equipment rack for networking equipment is a frame to which patch panels, switches, routers, and small servers may be mounted. The width of the rack and the mounting holes conform to industry standards. Both two-post and four-post racks are used. Open frame equipment racks may be seen in IT rooms and networking closets. In data centers, the racks are more likely to be enclosed and cooled. Because networking involves so many cables, many racks have cable organizers. Other accessories include chassis, shelves, power strips, fan trays, and doors.
Equipment racks for other equipment
Besides networking and communications equipment, audio visual (AV) equipment, scientific instruments, and test systems are also rack mounted. For AV installations, a two-post rack is the most affordable option, but it must be mounted to the floor or the wall. Test racks and instrument racks are generally mounted on casters, so they can be moved easily to locations within crowded factories and labs.
