Cable-Max Server Rack – 42U & 44U with Enhanced Cable Management

Messy cables kill airflow, complicate service calls, and look unprofessional. Gaw Technology’s Cable-Max 42U / 44U server rack with cable management solves that problem out of the box. Each enclosure ships pre-configured with vertical raceways, horizontal finger ducts, and top-entry brush grommets—so every power cord and patch lead has a defined path before day-one deployment.

Built on a UL-2416 welded frame and rated for a 3,000 lb dynamic (rolling) load, Cable-Max supports dense switch stacks, converged servers, or fiber patch fields without flex. Front and rear doors feature 78 % perforation to maintain unobstructed airflow, while the included blanking panels and side cable channels prevent hot-air wash-back.

Technicians love the time savings: snap-in 0U PDU rails accept tool-less power strips; color-coded Velcro straps and cable combs are factory mounted; and depth-indexed rails adjust effortlessly to fit equipment from 24 – 48 inches. A typical 42U copper-and-fiber install that once took a full day can now be laced and labeled in hours.

Key Features

• Built-In Cable Raceways – vertical & horizontal managers installed factory-fresh
• Brush Grommet Top & Bottom – seal entry points, preserve pressure differential
• 0U Tool-less PDU Brackets – maximize usable U-space for gear, not power strips
• Lockable, Reversible Doors – secure gear while granting fast rear access
• Optional Side Ladder Rack Interface – extend structured cabling into overhead trays

Say goodbye to spaghetti cabinets—Cable-Max turns every install into a showcase-grade rack while boosting airflow and serviceability.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What cable-management hardware is pre-installed in the Cable-Max rack?

Every enclosure ships with vertical raceways, horizontal finger ducts, and brush-grommet top & bottom entries. Color-coded Velcro® straps and cable combs are already mounted, so power cords, copper, and fiber patch leads have a defined path before the rack even leaves our factory.

2. How much equipment weight can the rack handle?

The welded 12-gauge steel frame is UL 2416 certified for a 3,000 lb (1,360 kg) dynamic (rolling) load, allowing you to populate dense switch stacks, UPS trays, or converged servers without frame flex or compliance concerns.

3. Will the built-in cable managers restrict airflow?

No. Front and rear doors feature 78 % open perforation for unobstructed front-to-back cooling, while side cable channels include airflow baffles to block hot-air wash-back. The result is clean cabling and consistent inlet temperatures.

4. How do 0U tool-less PDU brackets save rack space?

The rack includes snap-in 0U accessory rails that let you mount vertical PDUs, cable ladders, or blanking panels without occupying any front-facing U-space—leaving the full 42U or 44U available for active equipment.

5. Can I integrate the rack with overhead ladder trays or seismic anchors?

Yes. An optional side ladder-rack interface kit bolts directly to the frame for seamless tie-in with overhead tray systems, and seismic anchor kits are available for Zone-4 compliance in earthquake-prone regions.
