Rack accessory Lanview RAB115BL 4U Steel Black

The Lanview RAB115BL is a 4U blanking panel made of steel with a black finish designed to control airflow inside server racks. Measuring 482 mm wide, 15 mm deep and 176 mm high, this rack accessory fits standard 19-inch racks and provides a closed surface to block empty spaces between devices. It helps prevent hot exhaust air from recirculating to front intakes and supports improved cooling efficiency and overall rack appearance.

Advantages

The steel construction ensures durability and stable mounting in the rack, while the closed surface effectively directs airflow and reduces bypass of hot air. Its 4U size and standard width make it compatible with common rack configurations, and the black finish gives a uniform, professional look to the cabinet front.

Suitable for

• Data center and server room racks where airflow management is required
• Network cabinets in offices or branch sites to prevent hot-air recirculation
• Racks with empty U spaces that need a clean, sealed front appearance

How to use

Install the blanking panel into an empty 4U space in a standard 19-inch rack by aligning the mounting holes with the rack rails and fastening with appropriate screws or cage nuts. Ensure the panel sits flush with adjacent equipment and that cable routing does not create unintended gaps. Use multiple panels to cover larger empty zones and to create directed airflow paths within the cabinet.

Recommendations

Use blanking panels as part of a broader airflow management strategy: combine with proper cable management, blanking of deep unused spaces, and correct placement of cool air intakes and exhausts to improve cooling efficiency and help reach Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) goals.
