Rack Specifications and Recommendations

Racks should conform to conventional standards. In the United States, use EIA Standard RS-310C:
Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment. In countries other than the United States, use IEC Standard
297. In addition, verify that your rack meets the basic mechanical and space requirements that are
described in this section.
Mechanical Recommendations for the Rack
Use distribution racks that meet the following mechanical recommendations:
• Use an open style, 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack to facilitate easy maintenance and to provide proper
ventilation.
• The rack should use the universal mounting rail hole pattern that is identified in IEC Standard 297.
• The mounting holes should be flush with the rails to accommodate the chassis.
• Use a rack made of steel or aluminum.
