Vertiv GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL 42U 750x1100mm Black Server Rack Cabinet

Overview

The Vertiv GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL is a 42U floor-standing server rack cabinet configured at 750 mm wide by 1100 mm deep — a footprint that comfortably accommodates full-depth 1U and 2U servers, patch panels, and cable management arms without fighting for rear clearance. The black finish suits both purpose-built server rooms and mixed-use IT closets. It ships on a standard pallet, which simplifies freight handling and reduces the risk of transit damage on large deployment orders. Vertiv rack enclosures are a staple across the Vertiv infrastructure catalog, and the GL42UEX series targets general data center and enterprise IT room deployments where standardized enclosure sizing matters for capacity planning.

Key Features

• 42U Rack Height: 42U delivers 73.5 inches of usable mounting space — enough for a full compute stack (servers, switches, patch panels, PDUs) in a single enclosure, reducing the number of cabinets needed per row and simplifying cable runs between equipment.
• 750 mm Width: The 750 mm footprint (wider than the entry-level 600 mm) gives you practical side clearance for cable management channels and blanking panel retention without requiring aisle modifications on standard 900 mm raised-floor grid tiles.
• 1100 mm Depth: At 1100 mm deep, this cabinet fits full-depth 1U servers (most 1U/2U rack servers run 700–900 mm) with room for rear cable dress and a rear vertical cable manager — no compromises on airflow path length.
• Standard Pallet Shipping: Palletized delivery means forklift or pallet-jack offload directly from the dock — practical on construction sites, loading docks, and facilities without dedicated IT freight elevators.
• Black Finish: Black powder coat is the standard for data center rack deployments and blends with most existing enclosure rows, keeping mixed-vendor environments visually consistent.

Integration & Compatibility

The 42U form factor and standard EIA-310 19-inch rack rail spacing make the GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL compatible with virtually all rack-mount IT equipment — servers, NVRs, managed switches, UPS units, and KVM consoles. For surveillance infrastructure, this enclosure works alongside rack-mount NVRs and PoE network switches in centralized head-end rooms. Pair with Vertiv PDUs and cable management accessories for a complete rack solution. Consult PoE and network planning resources if you are sizing power distribution within the enclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the dimensions of the GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL?

A: The GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL is a 42U cabinet measuring 750 mm wide by 1100 mm deep. Height follows standard 42U rack specification (approximately 2000 mm / 78.7 inches external).

Q: Does this cabinet ship on a pallet?

A: Yes. The GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL is configured with a standard pallet mount, which supports forklift and pallet-jack offload and reduces transit damage risk on large orders.

Q: Is the GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL compatible with standard 19-inch rack equipment?

A: Yes. The enclosure uses standard EIA-310 19-inch rack rail spacing, making it compatible with rack-mount servers, switches, NVRs, UPS units, patch panels, and virtually all rack-mount IT hardware.

Q: What color is the GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL?

A: Black powder coat finish, which is the standard for data center and server room deployments.

Q: What is the difference between 600 mm and 750 mm wide cabinets?

A: The 750 mm width (as on the GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL) provides additional side clearance for cable management channels and blanking panel retention compared to 600 mm cabinets, without requiring aisle layout changes on standard raised-floor grids.

James Everett

When I spec rack enclosures for centralized surveillance and IT head-end rooms, the depth dimension is usually the first thing I check. The GL42UEX-75110B-MS-PL comes in at 1100 mm deep — that is the practical minimum for housing full-depth 1U compute or rack-mount NVR hardware while still leaving usable rear cable-dress space without forcing a bend radius violation on structured cabling.

Technical Highlights:

• 42U Capacity: Enough vertical space to house a complete head-end stack — NVR, PoE switches, patch panels, and a UPS — in one enclosure, reducing inter-cabinet cabling complexity.
• 750 mm Width: Wider than entry-level 600 mm cabinets; the extra 150 mm matters when you are dressing vertical cable managers on both sides of the interior rail.
• 1100 mm Depth: Accommodates full-depth 1U/2U servers and rack-mount NVRs with rear clearance for cable management — avoids the tight-fit problems common with 900 mm-deep enclosures on 24-port-plus switch deployments.

Deployment Considerations:

• Standard pallet configuration is an advantage on new-construction sites and multi-cabinet deployments where freight is handled by dock equipment rather than hand-truck — confirm your site has appropriate offload capability before scheduling delivery.
• Verify your raised-floor or concrete floor load rating before placing a fully populated 42U cabinet — a loaded enclosure at this depth and height can exceed 1,000 lbs with servers, PDUs, and UPS hardware installed.

This cabinet is well-positioned for centralized surveillance head-end rooms and small-to-medium data center rows where standardized 42U enclosure sizing simplifies capacity planning across multi-cabinet deployments.
