Tripp Lite Open Frame Rack Server Cabinet 16U 2-Post Heavy Duty Compact (SR2POST16HD)
Network closets and back rooms fill up fast. We build this open-frame rack with heavy-gauge powder-coated steel to anchor deep switches and servers where an enclosed cabinet is too bulky. It fastens down to flat floors or work surfaces, leaving all four sides clear for airflow and cable dressing.

How this one is built
Powder-coated steel uprights
Thick steel posts take the strain of dense chassis without flexing or binding your slide rails. The finish resists scuffs from sliding heavy gear in and out during routine maintenance.
Toolless accessory mounting
Integrated keyhole slots along the frame let you drop in vertical PDUs and cable managers without turning a screw. This keeps vertical power runs out of the way of exhaust vents.
Clear airflow on all sides
With no solid side panels or doors to trap heat, room air circulates freely past switch intake fans. Cable runs remain visible and reachable from any side of the post.
Floor or surface mounting
The base anchors to level surfaces to keep your hardware stable under heavy weight loads. It suits back rooms and shop floors where equipment must stay firmly in one spot.

These are the figures our retail partner lists for this unit. Where a number is missing here it was not printed on the listing, and we would rather leave the row out than fill it with a guess.
