The vertical rackmount server rack has become much more popular than other varieties in various IT sectors today. In fact, most all non-rackmount rack server varieties are being replaced with the vertical version. The reasons for this are just too many to recount in just one article. However, in this article I am trying to enlist the most important ones.

•    The first and foremost reason is that it takes care of your space constraint issues by using standardized vertical rack units. This allows the vertical server rack to provide maximum usable server usage in minimum floor space.
•    The vertical server rack facilitates easy access to the equipment stored in it. Hence, you can save on time, which is very important these days with fast lifestyles.
•    Another advantage of using this vertical rack server is that the user can control the servers in a convenient way, as it offers greater visibility and easy recovery, whenever the need arises.
•    The vertical racks are very flexible and can be assembled very easily, which allow them to be shipped with ease. This also allow for greater user friendliness, as they can be moved just anywhere as per his/her convenience.
•    Easy handling and extra storage space make them the ‘first pick’ of all users of server racks.
•    These are user friendly as they can accommodate any number of add-ons like rackmount powerstrips, and other computer related tools.
•    Most of these racks today also come with many optional features to fit your specific applications.
•    When mobility is important, casters can be mounted on the server rack.
•    Many vertical server rack come standard with user-friendly features like rackmount powerstrips, open-wire racking for better air inflow, as well as Electrostatic Discharge protection.

With all these features, it is much easier to find a server rack that fits your specific applications.

ISC has a large selection of server racks and rackmount accessories. Their online catalog for rackmount powerstrips does a good job showing your options along with detailed description so you know exactly what the rack or cabinet can do.
