Server Rack Enclosure

In medium to large environment, it is important to plan for server growth.  A server rack will help secure your important servers and allow you to add more servers very easily.  This rack system can be locked to provide a level of security.  In addition, it is not easily possible for a wire to be unplugged accidentally because the systems are enclosed.  

All components related to the servers (including: sliding Keyboard, flip monitor, tape backup unit, etc) are enclosed within the rack structure.  A rack mount system typically costs between $700 to $1200 per enclosure.  Although, these units are somewhat pricey, they help protect your servers from physical mischief, dust, and help manage all connecting wires.
