Can holes be drilled on the side of the cable tray

Due to their exposure to the open air because of the cable trays, the wires contained within need a very durable outer covering. The regulations dictate that the cables must either be Type TC (also known as Tray Rated) or must be metal-armored (Type MC). B-Line series KwikRail cable tray systems feature rungs with patented fastener holes, allowing installers to easily remove, reposition or add rungs. This is a description of how to select, install, and support these metal or plastic frames, on which electrical wires are installed. [pdf]

Should the heat from the network server rack be vented from the front or the back

Should the heat from the network server rack be vented from the front or the back

Cold air is directed to the front of server racks, while hot air released from the back is removed. Separating hot and cold airflow helps keep equipment at safe temperatures. After all, sealing these gaps (both within and along the sides of cabinets) often provides the greatest return on investment of any airflow management effort, both. Investing in rack-level thermal management is essential for sustainable and reliable data center operations. That means fewer issues, smoother operations. Always provide adequate space in front and behind the rack to allow for proper ventilation. [pdf]
