Designed to seal up to 50U of opening in a server rack, the Full Rack Blanking Panel Kit greatly reduces bypass airflow and exhaust air recirculation by eliminating gaps and creating a contained server rack environment. Designed to completely seal the vertical plane of 42U-50U racks, the new Full Rack Blanking Panel Kit provides a completely tool-less, out-of-the-box blanking solution for unpopulated IT racks.
For ease of installation, the kit comes pre-assembled with two 21U blanking panels and additional 1U and 2U blanking panels to fill remaining open rack units (only necessary if cabinets are taller than 42U). The size customization ability accommodates half rack or full rack sealing for rack sizes 42U to 50U. The FRBP Kit is designed for easy removal and re-use as needed for your rack systems.
