Tripp Lite SR42SIDE 42U Server Rack Side Panel

Compatible 42U Rack Panel

The Tripp Lite SR42SIDE is a dedicated side panel designed for standard depth 42U server racks. It serves as a direct replacement part or allows an expansion cabinet to be converted back to a fully enclosed unit. The panel integrates with the existing rack structure to maintain physical security and airflow management. It is intended for administrators managing standard depth 42U enclosures.

Secure Locking Operation

The panel features a keyed locking latch that secures the rack side against unauthorised access. This mechanism operates mechanically without electronic components, ensuring consistent function during power interruptions. The lock engages positively when the panel is closed, providing a reliable barrier for installed equipment. No software configuration or network connectivity is required for the physical security function.

Modular Enclosure Construction

The panel is built to match the dimensions and mounting points of the SR42UB and SR42UBEXP series racks. Its construction allows it to be fitted or removed as deployment requirements change, supporting both initial build-out and later reconfiguration. The design aligns with the rack frame to preserve structural rigidity and containment. It provides a solid metal barrier without integrated cable routing features or ventilation cutouts.
