2U Rackmount Configuration Options

Sample configurations for 2U systems

A 2U rack server offers a step up in size and performance from a 1U server without a significant increase in cost and consumption of space. 2U rackmount computers have the capability of using a standard ATX & uATX motherboard. A 2U chassis allows for better airflow using larger and more powerful cooling fans resulting in higher heat dissipation out of the chassis. They allow for multiple  expansion cards using riser cards or up to 7 low-profile expansion cards while keeping a compact form factor and also providing some additional storage space.

All of the following pre-configured systems have the following features:

  • 20.5” deep
  • Lockable front panel
  • Four internal, shock-mounted 3.5″ hard drive bays
  • Three full-height card slots available on standard chassis
  • Integrate up to seven low-profile PCI cards with additional options
  • Removable air filters
  • Up to three 80mm fans
  • Dual Nic

The following are pre-configured options, but systems can and should be customized to meet your exact needs, so please contact us for a precise system.
