Tripp Lite's SR45UBEXPND 4-Post Open Frame Rack Enclosure Cabinet is a 45U expansion model for use in large data center applications. With no doors or side panels, the SR45UBEXPND is designed to simplify growing rack equipment installations. Premium features include top-panel cable routing ports, adjustable mounting rails, toolless vertical PDU mounting and more. And as part of the SmartRack® family, the SR45UBEXPND is compatible with Tripp Lite's extensive range of rackmount accessories, enabling you to customize your solution to meet any requirement.
The SR45UBEXPND contains no doors or side panels, making it a perfect expansion enclosure cabinet for applications where several cabinets are bayed together. Its integrated baying tabs make it easy to combine multiple enclosure cabinets in rows for expanding data center applications. The center-to-center width can be set at 600 mm (24 in.) to match standard data center floor tiles. The SR45UBEXPND offers guaranteed compatibility with all EIA-310-E compliant 19-in. equipment, and is also 100% compatible with today's state-of-the-art hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center configurations.
With 3U more height than Tripp Lite’s 42U enclosure cabinets, the SR45UBEXPND is optimized for high-density data center applications. Its massive front-to-rear ventilation capacity meets or exceeds server manufacturer requirements. The SR45UBEXPND offers full compatibility with a wide range of airflow optimization accessories as well as cable management accessories.
The SR45UBEXPND features two adjustable vertical mounting rails that support toolless button-mount 0U installation of compatible PDUs and cable managers. Each rail can accommodate two vertical PDUs or cable managers side by side, for a total of four units per enclosure cabinet. These vertical mounting rails make it easier to route power and cabling to installed rack equipment and are ideal for network switches that have side-to-side airflow and forward-facing ports.
Vented Top Panel with Cable Ports PromotesEfficient Airflow and
Keeps Cables Organized
The top panel of the SR45UBEXPND is furnished with vents that help remove warm air from the enclosure cabinet and draw in cool air by convection. It also supports installation of standard user-supplied case fans. The top panel contains cable routing ports and is designed for quick, toolless removal with no need to disconnect cables. An open bottom facilitates cable access.
All components of the SR45UBEXPND are grounded to the enclosure cabinet frame. Front and rear threaded grounding points are provided for connection to the facility earth ground.
Preinstalled Casters and Leveling Feet ProvidePrecise Placement
To simplify deployment, the SR45UBEXPND comes with preinstalled casters and leveling feet. The casters allow the SR45UBEXPND to be easily maneuvered into the desired location, where it can then be secured in place by adjusting the leveling feet. The SR45UBEXPND has a rolling load capacity of 2250 lbs., enabling rack equipment to be installed in the enclosure cabinet prior to final deployment. Note: The casters are intended for minor position adjustments within the final installation area only and are not designed for moving the enclosure cabinet over long distances.
