Know before you buy
The ERK-2125-CONFIG arrives fully assembled and ready for immediate equipment installation, saving you significant setup time.
Yes, this cabinet is built to the industry-standard 19-inch rack width, ensuring compatibility with the vast majority of professional AV and networking gear.
The 21 RU capacity provides enough vertical space for roughly 21 standard rack-mount units, depending on the height of each individual component. With the included shelves and vent panels, you have a flexible foundation for a mix of rack-mount and non-rack-mount devices.
The 25-inch depth is ideal for most standard AV receivers, amplifiers, and networking switches. However, if you are using exceptionally deep enterprise-grade servers, we recommend measuring your equipment's total depth—including cable connectors—to ensure a proper fit.
Yes, the cabinet includes perforated vent panels and a configurable rear door designed to promote natural convection. This setup is effective for standard AV setups, though high-heat environments may still benefit from additional active cooling fans.
The included fine floor caster base is designed for mobility, allowing you to roll the rack for maintenance or cable access. While it is stable when stationary, we recommend moving the rack slowly and carefully when fully loaded to maintain balance.
