Rack Server FAQ

What is a rack server?

A rack server is a server designed to be installed in a standard rack cabinet, typically built in a flat, horizontal form factor with mounting rails so that multiple servers can be stacked neatly within the same rack. This design makes rack servers well-suited for data center environments.
A server is a general term for a computer that provides computing resources to other devices on a network. A rack server is a specific server form factor designed to be mounted in a standard rack. Other common form factors include tower servers, which stand upright like desktop PCs, and blade servers, which fit into a shared blade chassis.
The "U" stands for rack unit, a standardized unit of height in equipment racks. One rack unit equals 1.75 inches (44.45 mm). A 1U server occupies one unit of vertical space in the rack, a 2U server takes up two units, and so on. The larger the U size, the more internal space the server usually has for components, cooling, and expansion.
Rack servers are space-efficient, allowing multiple servers to be housed in a single rack. This makes cable routing and maintenance more organized, and simplifies management in data center environments.
