The product from Vertiv is a 19-inch vertical profile for use in server and network enclosures. It is an accessory specifically designed for mounting devices in 15 U (height units). The profile is installed on both the front and rear sides of the enclosure to enable stable fixation of IT and electronics components. The construction consists of aluminium extrusion profiles, supplied in bare (uncoated) condition, and galvanised steel sheet for the mounting brackets. This material combination ensures high mechanical stability and corrosion resistance, particularly in industrial or server-based environments.

Applications

The 19-inch vertical profile is designed for use in standard 19-inch enclosures used in data centres, IT infrastructures, network centres, or industrial control environments. It serves as a mounting base for devices such as network switches, routers, servers, power supplies, or other 19-inch compatible units. The 15 U height allows mounting of devices requiring corresponding mounting height without additional adapters or modifications. The front and rear mounting option provides flexibility in positioning and facilitates cable routing and device access.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The profile features a T-slot structure enabling secure and precise device mounting. The T-slots are integrated along the entire length of the profile, allowing flexible positioning of mounting screws. The grid rail, supplied with the profile, serves as an aid for exact alignment and securing of devices. The mounting brackets made of galvanised steel sheet ensure stable anchoring of the profile within the enclosure. The mounting hardware included in the delivery scope comprises the necessary screws and nuts for securing the profile and the devices mounted on it.

Technology Explained Simply

The use of aluminium extrusion profiles offers an optimal combination of lightweight construction and strength. The bare surfaces are suitable for direct mounting and allow easy modification if required. The T-slot technology is a standard in 19-inch technology and enables quick and secure mounting without additional tools. The grid rail serves as an aid for precise alignment and prevents misalignment during installation. The galvanised mounting brackets provide additional corrosion protection, especially in environments with high humidity or aggressive atmosphere.

Compatibility and Accessories

The profile is designed for standard 19-inch enclosures and fits all enclosures supporting the 19-inch format. It is specifically designed for mounting in 15 U height, making it suitable for a wide range of network and server devices. The front and rear mounting option allows flexible arrangement within the enclosure. The accessories included in the delivery scope comprise all necessary elements for installation: two 19-inch profiles with T-slots, four mounting brackets made of galvanised steel sheet, and the required mounting hardware. No additional accessories are required to install the profile.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by securing the mounting brackets to the inner walls of the enclosure, with positioning guided by the grid rail. Subsequently, the 19-inch profiles are inserted into the mounting brackets and secured using the included mounting hardware. The T-slots allow flexible positioning of devices, which are then fastened to the profiles with screws. Installation requires no special tools, only a screwdriver or screwdriver clamp. The mounting process is quick and easy, even for technicians without specific IT installation experience.

Operational Advantages

The vertical profile provides a stable and secure mounting base for IT and electronics devices. The T-slot structure enables precise and flexible positioning of devices, facilitating maintenance and replacement. The use of aluminium extrusion profiles and galvanised steel sheet ensures high mechanical load capacity and durability. The front and rear mounting option offers flexibility in device arrangement and improves cable routing.
