Server Rack and Cabinet Height Conversion Table

The following table shows the height of a rack or cabinet in metric and imperial measurements. This is the internal ‘usuable’ height. The overall physical height will be larger dependent upon the type of rack or cabinet, its feet (which may be adjustable) or castors and cable entry points.

The table can also be used to calculate the total ‘U’ height of the equipment to be located in the rack or cabinet and how much space capacity is available for future expansion. For example total the height in millimetres (mm) and divide by 44.45 to get the approximate U height.

  • How to Plan A Server Rack Installation

    Server racks are designed for one purpose and that is to provide an easy and secure way to house IT servers and their associated networking devices. Most organisations will have at least one server rack and the problem for many today is how to expand their existing installation to take advantage of new server technologies.

  • Why Airflow Management is a Hot Topic for Data Centre Racks

    Data centres and server rooms should be designed around the workload they have to support both from day-one and in the future. This is not always the case and many server room operations evolve from their initial concept, driven by changes in demands, workloads and technology. This can lead to inefficiencies and less than optimum design in terms of critical systems and resilience.

  • How Managing Server Rack Airflow Improves Energy Efficiency

    How you manage the air flow within your server racks can have a dramatic effect on the overall energy efficiency of your datacentre and specifically the server room area. The higher the temperature within the server space, the greater the need for cool air from your air conditioning system and its delivery to your server racks either via a raised access floor or general movement via fans within the room. The harder the air conditioning system must work, the greater the energy used and the higher the running costs in terms of electricity bills.

Related FAQs

  • What is the difference between a server rack and server cabinet?

    A server rack is a frame into which 19inch rackmount servers, storage and associated networking devices are mounted or ‘rack mounted’. The frame may be 2 or 4-pillar in design. Equipment suitable for a server rack is termed ‘rack mount’ or designed for ‘rack mounting’. A server rack with side panels and a front and rear door assembly can be called a server cabinet. The front door may be solid metal, perforated hex mesh or glass. The rear door is typically solid or perforated hex mesh. The doors and side panels do not just make the server cabinet more secure but also assist air flow management. Server racks and cabinets are defined by their height in ‘U’ where 1U=45mm and their width and depth with typical sizes being 600, 800, 1000 and 1200mm.

  • Do server cabinets always need cooling?

    If your cabinets are only partially populated and has perforated ventilation holes in the front and rear, you may not need additional cooling fan kits. Server manufacturers typically recommend a minimum perforation factor for the doors of the cabinets that would be used to house their servers and this is typically from 63% upwards; to allow adequate air flow from front to rear.

  • What is the best cooling method for my server racks?

    Server racks are designed for front air intake and rear cabinet exit. Cool or air conditioned air should be drawn into the front of the rack by fans within the servers themselves or within the server racks and this then exits as warm air out of the rear of the cabinet. In a data hall server racks are typically positioned in rows and the rows positioned so that the fronts face each to optimise cool air and hot air flows. This is a basic for of hot-aisle/cold-aisle containment. The server racks may themselves be within a separate containment known as a hot-aisle/cold-aisle container. For some server racks we can also offer rear cooling doors to help collect the hot exhaust air. The cooling doors fit onto the rear of the cabinets and use chilled water pipes within the rear door. We can also supply additional cabinet fans for extra cooling capacity.
