What does “19-inch free standing rack” mean?

It refers to a floor-standing cabinet designed for 19-inch rack-mount equipment (EIA-310). Servers, switches, patch panels and PDUs mount on the 19-inch rails inside the cabinet.

Which FS Line sizes are most common for network and server rooms?

For mixed network/server use, 42U with 600×800 mm and 600×1000 mm depths are common. Wider 800 mm cabinets improve cable routing and airflow for dense installations.

What is the standard IP rating of FS Line cabinets?

FS Line is typically supplied as IP20 for indoor IT rooms. IP-rated versions can be supplied on request depending on the project requirements.

Do FS Line cabinets include adjustable 19-inch rails?

Yes. FS Line includes four adjustable 19-inch mounting rails (front and rear) to support flexible equipment depth and installation.

Can I choose color and door options?

Yes. Typical color options are RAL 9005 Black and RAL 7035 Light Grey. Door configurations can be selected depending on the required visibility, security and ventilation.

Why should I use the ordering code on purchase requests?

Ordering codes remove ambiguity (U height, width, depth, and options) and help ensure the cabinet is supplied exactly as requested.

Applications

A 19 free standing rack cabinet is used to organize and protect rack-mount equipment such as servers, network switches, routers, patch panels and PDUs. Typical applications include:

Data centers and server rooms: structured equipment placement, easier maintenance and controlled airflow.
Networking and telecom rooms: safe housing for switches, routers and passive components.
Industrial and AV environments: organized mounting for control systems, automation and audio/video equipment.

Tip: For other enclosure options, see our 19” rack cabinet range.
