Vertiv SC67942 Side Cabinet Accessory Rack (CAR) — 79"H x 6"W x 42"D
Overview
The Vertiv SC67942 is a 79-inch-tall, 6-inch-wide, 42-inch-deep Side Cabinet Accessory Rack (Side CAR) engineered to bolt alongside Vertiv ES-series rack enclosures as a dedicated cable and accessory management channel. At only 6 inches wide, the SC67942 occupies minimal floor space while adding a full-depth vertical pathway for power cords, network cables, or ancillary hardware that would otherwise crowd the primary enclosure's interior.
Matching the 79-inch height profile of the ES 79-series enclosures, this unit aligns flush with cabinet tops for a clean, uniform row appearance — a practical detail in structured data center and telecom deployments where visual cable discipline matters as much as physical access.
Key Features
- 6-Inch Narrow Profile: At just 6 inches wide, the SC67942 takes up roughly one-fifth of a standard rack's footprint — giving you a dedicated management channel without sacrificing a full rack unit of floor space beside the primary enclosure.
- 42-Inch Depth: Full 42-inch depth matches the internal depth of compatible Vertiv ES enclosures, so cable runs reach front-to-back without strain or sharp bends that accelerate jacket wear.
- 79-Inch Height Alignment: Height-matched to Vertiv's 79-series ES cabinets (SC127942, SC67942, SCP7942), ensuring flush top alignment when installed side-by-side in a row — no step-down gaps that create cable-routing dead zones.
- Broad ES-Series Compatibility: The Side CAR family supports the full range of Vertiv ES enclosures from 79-inch to 91-inch heights and 42-inch to 48-inch depths, so a single accessory line scales across mixed-height rows without custom fabrication.
- LRB Cable Management Integration: Compatible with Vertiv LRB-12, LRB-12A1, LRB-12A2, LRB-24, LRB-24A1, and LRB-24A2 cable management accessories across all ES sizes — letting you build a continuous, structured cable highway from the Side CAR into the main enclosure.
Integration & Compatibility
The SC67942 is designed exclusively for pairing with Vertiv ES-series enclosures. Verified compatible enclosure models in the 79-inch family include SC127942, SC67942 (this unit's paired ES counterpart), and SCP7942 at 79″H × 42″D; SC127948, SC67948, and SCP7948 at 79″H × 48″D. Taller 84-inch and 91-inch ES variants are supported by the equivalent Side CAR models in the same family.
For structured cabling environments, the LRB-series lacing bar accessories mount directly to the Side CAR frame, providing consistent horizontal tie-off points along the full 79-inch run. Consult Vertiv's ES enclosure documentation to confirm rail and mounting hole alignment before ordering if pairing with non-standard ES configurations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which Vertiv ES enclosures is the SC67942 compatible with?
A: The SC67942 is verified compatible with the 79-inch-height ES enclosure family: SC127942, SC67942 (ES counterpart), SCP7942 (all 79″H × 42″D), and SC127948, SC67948, SCP7948 (79″H × 48″D). Taller 84-inch and 91-inch ES variants use the corresponding Side CAR models in the same product family.
Q: Can the SC67942 be used with non-Vertiv racks?
A: The SC67942 is engineered specifically to bolt alongside Vertiv ES-series enclosures. Compatibility with third-party racks is not documented in the available evidence — verify mounting hole patterns before attempting cross-brand installation.
Q: What cable management accessories work with the SC67942?
A: The LRB-12, LRB-12A1, LRB-12A2, LRB-24, LRB-24A1, and LRB-24A2 lacing bar accessories are verified compatible with all ES sizes, including the SC67942 Side CAR.
Q: What are the exact dimensions of the SC67942?
A: The SC67942 measures 79 inches high, 6 inches wide, and 42 inches deep.
Q: Is the SC67942 the right Side CAR for a 48-inch-deep ES enclosure?
A: No. The SC67942 is 42 inches deep and pairs with 42-inch-depth ES enclosures. For 48-inch-deep ES cabinets, the correct Side CAR is SC67948 (or SC127948 / SCP7948).
The SC67942 is one of those components that looks trivial on a bill of materials but makes a real difference on the data center floor. At 6 inches wide and 79 inches tall, it gives you a full-height, full-depth (42 inches) vertical cable management channel that runs flush against the ES-series enclosure — no improvised velcro bundles, no cord spillage into the hot aisle.
Technical Highlights:
- 6-Inch Width: Tight enough to fit in the gap between adjacent enclosures in dense rows, wide enough to route a meaningful bundle of power and data cables without compression damage to jacket insulation.
- 42-Inch Depth Match: Depth-matched to 42-inch ES enclosures means front-to-back cable runs terminate cleanly — no excess slack pooling at the rear that creates airflow obstructions in contained hot/cold aisle arrangements.
- LRB-Series Integration: The LRB-12 and LRB-24 lacing bars (and their A1/A2 variants) attach directly to the Side CAR frame, giving you consistent horizontal tie-off points across the full 79-inch run — a practical necessity when you're managing 40+ patch cables per enclosure.
Deployment Considerations:
- Confirm enclosure depth before ordering: SC67942 is 42 inches deep. If your ES cabinets are 48-inch depth, you need SC67948 instead — the depth mismatch leaves a 6-inch rear gap that undermines cable routing and looks sloppy in a managed row.
- Height matching is exact for the 79-inch ES family. If your row mixes 84-inch or 91-inch ES enclosures, you will need the corresponding Side CAR variants (SC68448 / SC68842 series) to maintain flush top alignment.
The SC67942 is the right call for structured data center rows built on Vertiv 79-inch × 42-inch ES enclosures where cable discipline, hot/cold aisle containment, and row uniformity are non-negotiable requirements.
