"We believe that our customers will see the benefits that these new racks can bring to their next job. From extra space gained in the bottom of each rack for mounting small components to offering consistent ventilation options, the new Raxxess Series boasts advanced features and quality engineering that installers love to see."
The E1 Raxxess Series Rack is an enclosed rack with solid steel construction; laser cut knockouts and integrated cable tie points with an included rear rack rail. The S1 Raxxess Series is a knockdown rack with solid steel construction and is easy to assemble, requiring only five minutes of one person's time.
A full line of accessories, including products bundled with SurgeX surge arresters and thermal management products like the new 1U Fan Panel and Filtered Fan to protect equipment from dust, are also exciting additions to this new line of racks.
Also new is RackBuilder - Chief's professional online rack mount configuration tool. "RackBuilder will fundamentally change the way our customers specify and order rack configurations", said Laurie Englert, Chief's marketing director. "Unlike other tools in the industry, RackBuilder offers a real-time solution with precise, photorealistic renderings of our rack products, allowing customers to build, save and email rack configurations quickly and easily - all online."
