Digitus DN-48002 · Universal 19" Equipment Rack with Castors, 21U, Black
21U · 19" rails front and rear136 kg loadCastors + carrying handlesOpen frame · no doors
The Digitus DN-48002 is a universal 19-inch equipment rack with 21 rack units, castors and carrying handles, built for audio-video, studio, event and lab equipment that has to be moved around and stay easy to reach from every side.
It is an open rack rather than a closed network cabinet: there are no front or rear doors and no IP rating, and both side walls have ventilation slits. In return you get free access to front and rear panels, good airflow and a footprint of only 507 × 460 mm with a height of 1000 mm. The 19-inch rails are threaded at the front and rear and accept both US (10-32) and EU (M6) style screws, and the frame takes up to 136 kg.
Before you order: This rack has no doors and no lock. If the equipment must be locked away in an office or shared space, choose a closed 19" cabinet instead.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Digitus universal 19" equipment rack, 21U, delivered flat pack (unassembled)
- 1 × screwdriver
- 1 × set of installation screws
- 1 × quick installation guide
What It Means in Practice
- Equipment depth up to 457.8 mm — mixers, amplifiers, media players, KVMs, small switches and rack shelves fit; deep servers do not.
- Castors let one person roll a fully loaded AV rack between rooms or stages; handles help when lifting into a vehicle.
- Rails are threaded, so you screw devices directly in without cage nuts.
- Flat-pack delivery: plan about half an hour for assembly with the supplied screwdriver.
What Will Not Work
- Locking equipment away — no doors, no lock.
- Servers and storage deeper than about 457 mm, or full-depth network switches with rear rail kits.
- Dusty or outdoor locations — the frame has no IP rating.
- Equipment with cage-nut-only rail kits that expect square holes — the rails are threaded.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a network cabinet?
No. It is an open 19" equipment rack without doors, aimed at AV, studio and lab use. For a lockable network cabinet choose a closed 19" cabinet.
Do I need cage nuts?
No. The rails are threaded and take US (10-32) or EU (M6) screws directly.
Can I put a server in it?
Only if the server is shallower than about 457 mm. Most rack servers are 600–800 mm deep and will not fit.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
Buy the DN-48002 for mobile AV and lab setups where airflow and access matter more than security. Check the depth of the deepest device first, then add shelves or blanking panels from our
rack accessories to finish it.
✓ Buy it if you need a mobile 21U frame for AV, studio, event or lab equipment up to about 457 mm deep.
✕ Skip it if you need lockable doors, a sealed cabinet or room for full-depth servers.
→ Also consider a closed 19" floor-standing network cabinet with glass or perforated doors if security matters.
