1. An equipment rack comprising:
a frame; a first pair of mounting rails and a second pair of mounting rails, each pair of mounting rails comprising:
a front mounting rail comprising:
a first plurality of front equipment-mounting apertures being disposed substantially adjacent to an outer edge of a first planar surface of the front mounting rail,
the first planar surface having a first width sized to align the first plurality of front equipment-mounting apertures at a first predefined position defining in part a first equipment-mounting interface when the front mounting rail is coupled to the frame through a first set of front frame-mounting apertures disposed in a second planar surface of the front mounting rail substantially perpendicular to the first planar surface; anda second plurality of front equipment-mounting apertures being disposed in:
(i) a third planar surface of the front mounting rail substantially perpendicular to the second planar surface, and(ii) a fourth planar surface of the front mounting rail surface substantially perpendicular to the third planar surface,the second planar surface having a second width sized to align the second plurality of front equipment-mounting apertures disposed in the third planar surface at a second predefined position defining in part a second equipment-mounting interface, and the third planar surface having a third width sized to align the second plurality of front equipment-mounting apertures disposed in the fourth planar surface at a third predefined position defining in part the second equipment-mounting interface when the front mounting rail is coupled to the frame through a second set of front frame-mounting apertures disposed in the first planar surface,wherein the first planar surface is directly connected to the second planar surface, the second planar surface is directly connected to the first and third planar surfaces, the third planar surface is directly connected to the second and fourth planar surfaces, and the fourth planar surface is directly connected to the third planar surface; anda rear mounting rail comprising:
a first plurality of rear equipment-mounting apertures being disposed substantially adjacent to an outer edge of a first planar surface of the rear mounting rail,
the first planar surface having a fourth width sized to align the first plurality of rear equipment-mounting apertures at a fourth predefined position defining in part the first equipment-mounting interface when the rear mounting rail is coupled to the frame through a first set of rear frame-mounting apertures disposed in a second planar surface of the rear mounting rail substantially perpendicular to the first planar surface; anda second plurality of rear equipment-mounting apertures being disposed in a fourth planar surface of the rear mounting rail substantially perpendicular to a third planar surface of the rear mounting rail, the third planar surface being substantially perpendicular to the second planar surface,
the second planar surface having a fifth width sized to align the third planar surface at a fifth predefined position defining in part the second equipment-mounting interface, and the third planar surface having a sixth width sized to align the second plurality of rear equipment-mounting apertures at a sixth predefined position defining in part the second equipment-mounting interface when the rear mounting rail is coupled to the frame through a second set of rear frame-mounting apertures disposed in the first planar surface,wherein the first planar surface is directly connected to the second planar surface, the second planar surface is directly connected to the first and third planar surfaces, the third planar surface is directly connected to the second and fourth planar surfaces, and the fourth planar surface is directly connected to the third planar surface;wherein the first equipment-mounting interface is defined by a first configuration of the first and second pairs of mounting rails; andwherein the second equipment-mounting interface is defined by a second configuration of the first and second pairs of mounting rail. |
