Product Overview

The ZeeVee Z4KRACKC2 is a 10-unit rack enclosure kit for ZyPer4K encoders and decoders, designed for professional AV equipment rooms where endpoint density and rack organization are priorities. Fitting into approximately 5U-6U of 19-inch rack space, this AV-over-IP endpoint rack carrier holds up to 10 ZyPer encoder or decoder units in a structured, serviceable arrangement. It is the extended capacity option for installations requiring more endpoints per rack than the 8-unit Z4KRACKC1 provides.

Product Description

The Z4KRACKC2 includes a rack assembly chassis and 10 individual carrier units, each accepting one ZyPer4K encoder or decoder. The kit accommodates any combination of ZyPer4K encoder and decoder models, allowing mixed copper and fiber endpoint installations in a single rack assembly. Standard 19-inch rack compatibility makes it suitable for equipment rooms, IDF closets, and central AV racks in commercial facilities. By consolidating ZyPer endpoints into a structured rack enclosure, integrators simplify cable management, improve access for maintenance, and support cleaner equipment room documentation. This kit does not include a power supply; pair it with the Z4KPWRCTR12 power center for 12V DC devices or rely on PoE from the network switch for copper endpoint models.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many rack units does the Z4KRACKC2 occupy?The Z4KRACKC2 occupies approximately 5U-6U of 19-inch rack space. Verify exact dimensions in the ZeeVee installation guide before finalizing rack layouts.Does the Z4KRACKC2 include a power supply?No. Power for ZyPer4K endpoints must be provided either via PoE from the network switch (copper models) or via the Z4KPWRCTR12 12V DC power center (fiber and non-PoE models).Can I mix copper and fiber ZyPer4K endpoints in the same rack kit?Yes. The Z4KRACKC2 accepts any combination of ZyPer4K encoder and decoder models regardless of connection type.What is the difference between the Z4KRACKC2 and the Z4KRACKC1?The Z4KRACKC2 holds up to 10 endpoints and uses approximately 5U-6U of rack space. The Z4KRACKC1 holds up to 8 endpoints in 5RU. The Z4KRACKC2 is appropriate when higher endpoint density per rack assembly is needed.Are the carrier units included or purchased separately?The Z4KRACKC2 includes both the rack assembly chassis and 10 carrier units as a complete kit.
