 What is the difference between rack and cabinet?

Cabinet has four rails and side panels. There are models with or without doors. Racks are open with no side panels and doors. They can stand freely without any support. The choice of installing server cabinets or racks purely depends on the need and data center design. However, there are a few thumb rules to make decision about Server racks & cabinets:

Equipment size and accessibility: Typically, large sized servers are heavy, and you need extra support and stability. Cabinets are more appropriate in this case. Racks are more useful when you need to access the equipment from all sides.

ü     Security and environmental aspects: When security is not a big issue (means your data center is already secured), you can install racks. However, in open data centers, it is mandatory to use cabinets.  Dust and dirt affect more when the servers or network equipment kept in open racks.
