6FT 38 RMS Black Distribution Rack for Network and AV Equipment

The 6FT 38 RMS Black Distribution Rack is a professional-grade open-frame rack designed to organize and secure servers, network switches, patch panels, and AV equipment in data centers, server rooms, and telecom closets. With 38 rack mount spaces (RMS) of vertical mounting height (approximately 6 feet), this rack provides ample capacity for dense equipment deployment. The durable black powder-coated steel construction ensures long-lasting performance and a professional appearance. This distribution rack accessory is essential for any structured cabling or IT infrastructure project.

Heavy-Duty Construction and Adjustable Depth

The rack is fabricated from high-strength steel with a scratch-resistant black powder-coat finish. The open-frame design allows for 360-degree airflow and easy rear access. The adjustable mounting depth (typically 20–36 inches) accommodates equipment of various sizes, from shallow network switches to deep servers. The rack includes laser-marked rack units for easy equipment alignment. Leveling feet and casters (depending on configuration) provide stability and mobility. This network rack accessory is built to support heavy loads while maintaining structural integrity.

38 RMS Capacity and Versatile Mounting

With 38 rack units of vertical space, this rack can hold up to 38 standard 19-inch rack mount devices (each 1.75 inches tall). Common uses include:

• Servers and storage arrays
• Network switches and routers
• Patch panels and cable management
• UPS and power distribution units
• AV receivers and signal processors

The square mounting holes are compatible with both cage nuts (for threaded screws) and clip nuts. Front and rear mounting rails are adjustable independently. Accessories such as shelves, blanking panels, and cable ladders can be added. This data center rack accessory provides a scalable foundation for growing IT needs.

Easy Assembly and Cable Management

The rack ships as a flat-pack with all necessary hardware for assembly. Clear instructions and pre-drilled holes simplify setup. Once assembled, integrated cable management features include cable lacing bars, tie-points, and optional vertical cable organizers (sold separately). The open sides and rear make it easy to route and dress cables without tools. For enhanced organization, pair with cable management accessories such as D-rings, patch panels, and horizontal cable managers.
