Environmental Engineering (EE) - European telecommunication standard for equipment practice - Part 6: Engineering requirements for harmonized racks and cabinets with extended features

Harmonization of dimensions for mounting flanges and doors of 300mm and 600mm deep ETSI racks based on EN 300 119-2 and -3. Further improvement for cable duct access, cable management, installation and thermal management is proposed. The NWI takes the new standard IEC 60917-2-5 Annex A1 and A2 into account. A new part 6 should be produced for the series EN 300 119.

Foreword This European Standard (EN) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Environmental Engineering (EE). The present document is part 6 of a multi-part deliverable aimed at setting out, on a common basis, the installation engineering requirements for telecommunication practice, for housing equipment forming part of a public telecommunications network.

ETSI EN 300 119-3 [i.3] specifies the engineering requirements for miscellaneous racks and cabinets. ETSI EN 300 119-4 [i.4] covers engineering requirements for subracks in miscellaneous racks and cabinets. ETSI EN 300 119-5 [i.5] covers the preferred thermal management solutions for subracks, racks/cabinets and miscellaneous racks/cabinets installed indoors in restricted access locations, for the removal of heat dissipated by one or more subracks in an rack complying to the requirements of this multi-part standard. The present document, ETSI EN 300 119-6, is defining extension to the existing parts of the standard to harmonize dimensions and to extend rack installation capabilities. These extended features are: • mounting bracket depth adjustment only on subrack level (as normally done on many other standardized equipment practices; e.g. 19 inches) • full installation compatibility for installing rack line-ups with 300 mm and 600 mm depth (see ETSI EN 300 119-3 [i.3]) • common position of mounting brackets for both 300 mm and 600 mm depth • recessed subrack mounting plane compared to ETSI EN 300 119-3 [i.3] and ETSI EN 300 119-4 [i.4] to allow more room for cable management and better cable access from front/rear aisle • modular design for 300 mm/600 mm racks to improve installation and thermal management (e.g. back-to-back with 200 mm off-set) • split up of 600 mm deep footprint into 2x300 mm so that both rack types allow the same subrack fixation plane • 300 mm and 600 mm deep racks with back-to-back installation compatibility for subracks (option to mount two 280 mm deep subracks back to back in a 600x600 mm footprint) • 300 mm and 600 mm deep racks with detachable side/rear covers to allow full cable duct access from the side • common 10 mm thick door design for both 300 mm and 600 mm rack to improve commonality • design subrack mounting plane in a manner so that not only 600 mm deep rack is a earthquake proof design but also the 300 mm rack (600 mm: ~7 inches deep upright; 300 mm ~3,5 inches deep upright; commonality with EIA rack standard for SNBF) SIST EN 300 119-6 V1.1.1:2015

• option for rack side extensions to create enhanced cabling space and thermal management options (e.g. heat
exchangers for water cooling to gain best energy efficiency for IT infrastructure) for both rack types (300 mm
and 600 mm depth)
• keep the rack side structure open with optional side plates to increase cabling space and reduce costs in rack
line-ups (only first and last rack would need a side plate)
• make ETSI mounting principle similar to SNBF (5 inches deep upright) which is used in USA
telecommunication offices to gain more commonality for international markets
• Seismic Proof Design (target: IEC 61587-2 [i.6]) for both 300 mm and 600 mm deep rack
• Define extra front side cabling space for accommodating optical and electrical I/O cables
• 300 mm/600 mm commonalities (e.g. doors, feet, rack alarm indicator strip, etc.) provide various options for
cost reduction due to higher volume and cost reduction, lower CAPEX due to less complexity and simplified

The present document details requirements for racks and cabinets with extended features supplied unequipped. The
racks/cabinets with extended features can be used for housing telecommunication equipment forming part of a public
telecommunication network installed either on the public telecommunication operators' sites or in the premises of
operator's customers. The racks/cabinets with extended features allow to accommodate various equipment, e.g. subracks
(see ETSI EN 300 119-4 [i.4]) and have provisions for doors or covers.

• split up of 600 mm deep footprint into 2x300 mm so that both rack types allow the same subrack fixation plane
• 300 mm and 600 mm deep racks with back-to-back installation compatibility for subracks (option to mount
two 280 mm deep subracks back to back in a 600x600 mm footprint)
• 300 mm and 600 mm deep racks with detachable side/rear covers to allow full cable duct access from the side
• common 10 mm thick door design for both 300 mm and 600 mm rack to improve commonality
• design subrack mounting plane in a manner so that not only 600 mm deep rack is a earthquake proof design
but also the 300 mm rack (600 mm: ~7 inches deep upright; 300 mm ~3,5 inches deep upright; commonality
with EIA rack standard for SNBF)

• option for rack side extensions to create enhanced cabling space and thermal management options (e.g. heat
exchangers for water cooling to gain best energy efficiency for IT infrastructure) for both rack types (300 mm
and 600 mm depth)
• keep the rack side structure open with optional side plates to increase cabling space and reduce costs in rack
line-ups (only first and last rack would need a side plate)
• make ETSI mounting principle similar to SNBF (5 inches deep upright) which is used in USA
telecommunication offices to gain more commonality for international markets
• Seismic Proof Design (target: IEC 61587-2 [i.6]) for both 300 mm and 600 mm deep rack
• Define extra front side cabling space for accommodating optical and electrical I/O cables
• 300 mm/600 mm commonalities (e.g. doors, feet, rack alarm indicator strip, etc.) provide various options for
cost reduction due to higher volume and cost reduction, lower CAPEX due to less complexity and simplified
logistics for deployment

1 Scope
The present document details requirements for racks and cabinets with extended features supplied unequipped. The
racks/cabinets with extended features can be used for housing telecommunication equipment forming part of a public
telecommunication network installed either on the public telecommunication operators' sites or in the premises of
operator's customers. The racks/cabinets with extended features allow to accommodate various equipment, e.g. subracks
(see ETSI EN 300 119-4 [i.4]) and have provisions for doors or covers.
ETSI EN 300 119-1 [i.1] defines the meaning of rac
