Cisco R-Series Racks
The Cisco R42612 R-Series rack is a 19-inch, 42U, industry standard EIA-310-D rack that is optimized for
the integrated Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS). It supports all Cisco UCS blade, rack, and storage
servers. Three versions of the rack are available for single-rack or multiple-rack UCS deployments:
• RACK2-UCS is the expansion rack that has no side panels
• RACK2-UCS2 is the standard rack that has side panels
• RACK2-UCS2-INT is the dynamic rack that has side panels
The design of the rack delivers power, cooling, and cable management features along with the strength and
stability required in today's rack enclosures. In addition, the Cisco R42612 rack provides the highest level of
reliability, structural integrity, and security for mission-critical environments.
Features of the Cisco R42612 rack include the following:
• Front and rear doors are perforated to maximize air flow. Locks are included for added security. The
doors also feature tool-less removal for convenient servicing. Split rear doors minimize the clearance
required at the rear of the rack, and the adjustable front door can swing from right to left or from left to
right.
• Lightweight, two-piece side panels are easy to install and remove, and locks provide extra security.
• The ventilated top canopy has cable access cutouts and a large cable access opening with a brush insert
that ensures proper airflow.
• Integrated PDU trays enable tool-less mounting for the zero-RU Cisco RP-Series PDUs.
• Front and back stabilizer brackets are included with the racks.
• A joining kit is available to connect adjacent expansion racks within a row.
• Casters permit mobility if needed.
