When assembling your 19-inch rack, it's crucial to have the right hardware, which can be obtained as a complete hardware pack, mounting pack, or individual components tailored to your specific rack unit.

Rack mounting hardware is used to fix 19-inch racks onto walls or other surfaces, providing efficient space utilization and accommodating specific equipment storage needs. These racks are commonly used for housing electronic equipment modules, such as audio, telecom, or lighting devices.

A rack unit, commonly abbreviated as U or RU, is a standardized unit of measurement equal to 1+3⁄4 inches (44.45 mm). It is widely utilized to measure the overall height of 19-inch and 23-inch rack frames, as well as the height of equipment that is mounted within these frames. This system allows expressing the height of the frame or equipment in terms of multiples of rack units. For instance, a standard full-size rack enclosure is typically 42U high, while the equipment mounted within can have heights of 1U, 2U, 3U, or 4U.
