June 22, 2009--Electrorack's patent-pending Scale-IT rack blanking panels are designed to help data center managers keep heat at bay with a one-size scalable solution. The one-piece panel seals airflow gaps between panels, and scales up or down to fill rack unit openings of any size. The panels are rigid, hold their shape, snap together, and are re-usable.

The RoHS-compliant Scale-IT panels are offered in a 19" EIA 1U form factor and are compatible with any style 19" EIA vertical mounting angles (VMAs). According to the company, the design allows IT or facilities personnel to quickly cover large openings in a rack without fastening every panel. Scale-IT's lightweight, flat plastic construction ­is comprised of UL94V-0 fire-rated material.

Panels are available in packs of 10 and 100.
