More video servers in less space – quick, flexible and professional installation and service
The AXIS Video Server Rack is a 19” rack solution that can be used to mount a large number of video servers (typically serving 15-20 cameras and upwards) with a common power supply, providing a space-efficient solution.
The Axis rack solution combines high reliability and functionality with quick, flexible and professional installation. Designed for improved serviceability and quick replacement of units, the rack holds up to 12 interchangeable and hot­swappable blades, so there is no need for power-down during installation or service.
