Digitus DN-19 BPN-01 — Grey 1U Blank Panel for 19-inch Racks
19" · 1USheet steelGrey RAL 7035Mounting set included
The Digitus DN-19 BPN-01 is a 1U blank cover for 482.6 mm (19-inch) network and server enclosures, made of sheet steel in light grey RAL 7035, for closing empty height units in 19-inch cabinets and universal equipment racks.
Almost every rack has gaps: space left for the next switch, a unit freed when a server was removed, or units between patch panels. Open gaps let hot exhaust air from the back of the rack flow round to the front intakes, which raises inlet temperatures and makes fans work harder. They also leave the cabling on show. A 1U blank panel closes each gap with a flat steel plate so the front of the rack is sealed and tidy. Digitus includes the installation set with screws, cage nuts and washers.
Before you order: This is a 19-inch panel. It does not fit 10-inch (254 mm) cabinets; for those choose the Digitus DN-10-BPN-01 (grey) or DN-10-BPN-01-B (black).
What's in the Box
- 1 × Digitus 19-inch 1U blank cover, light grey RAL 7035
- Installation set: screws, cage nuts and washers (Digitus does not list the quantities)
What It Means in Practice
- Covers one height unit (1U, 44.45 mm). Order one panel per empty unit, or combine panels for larger gaps.
- Screws onto the front 19-inch profile rails with cage nuts, exactly like a patch panel or shelf.
- Works in Digitus 19-inch cabinets and in universal 19-inch equipment racks built to IEC 60297.
- Light grey RAL 7035 matches the standard grey used on many network and server cabinets.
What Will Not Work
- 10-inch cabinets: the panel is sized for 482.6 mm (19-inch) rails.
- Cable pass-through: it is a solid plate. Where cables need to reach the front, use a brush panel instead.
- Tool-less mounting: there are no snap-in clips; it is screwed to the rails.
- Black cabinets: it fits, but the grey will stand out. The black version is the DN-19 BPN-01-SW.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it come with screws and cage nuts?
Yes. Digitus supplies an installation set with screws, cage nuts and washers for the panel.
Will it fit a non-Digitus rack?
Yes, if the rack has standard 19-inch (482.6 mm) profile rails to IEC 60297. Digitus states the panel also suits universal 19-inch equipment racks.
How many do I need?
One per empty height unit. A 3U gap needs three 1U panels.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Blank panels are a small part with a real effect on a busy rack: sealing the unused units keeps the cool air at the front where the equipment draws it in. Count the empty units, match the cabinet colour and order one panel per unit. For cable entry, shelves and cable managers, see our
rack accessories range.
✓ Buy it if you have a 19-inch rack or cabinet with empty units to close and want the colour to match.
✕ Skip it if your cabinet is 10-inch, or cables need to pass through the opening.
→ Also consider the matching black DN-19 BPN-01-SW for the other cabinet colour, or a 1U brush panel for cable entry.
