The 52 RU rack system enables 16% more rack space for network equipment in the same footprint as a conventional 42 RU rack.
Alan Farrimond, Managing Director Panduit EMEA, commented, "With a healthy global economy, commercial rental prices are again on the increase".
"There has never been more pressure on data centre managers to find ways to offer more service within a limited physical area".
The system features two rack options.
The two-post standard equipment rack is UL listed for 454kg load rating and is ideal for supporting patch panels and smaller network equipment.
The four -post rack is UL listed for 907kg load rating with adjustable front and rear equipment mounting rails to accommodate heavy networking equipment.
Both rack options are fully bonded, simplifying the grounding process, and are compatible with the Panduit StructuredGround Grounding System.
The system also includes 2.5m PatchRunner Vertical Cable Managers designed for high-density applications, which feature moulded cable management fingers for greater bend radius control, dual hinged doors for unobstructed access to network cables and slack management spools for optimum patch cord management.
PatchRunner Vertical Cable Managers in combination with Panduit angled patch panels eliminate the need for horizontal cable managers, providing additional space savings for data centre designs.
