Making the right choice depends on numerous factors such as available space, equipment capacity, accessibility needs and budget constraints. Read below to learn about the advantages of each.

Floor-standing open frame racks

 

Capacity and space: Floor-standing racks typically offer larger capacity, making them suitable for accommodating more equipment and facilitating future expansions.

Accessibility: Easier access to the front and rear of the equipment, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting.

Wallmount open frame racks

 

Space saving: Ideal for environments with limited floor space as they can be mounted on walls, saving valuable floor space.

Simplified design: Wall-mounted racks contribute to a cleaner and more organized appearance, especially in smaller spaces.

Security: Elevated placement can enhance physical security, as these racks are more challenging to access without authorization.

Ease of installation: Easier and quicker to install than floor-standing racks.

Cost-effective: Often more cost-effective, making them a suitable choice for smaller setups or budgets.
