The HPE 36U 600mm x 1075mm Advanced Shock Rack (SKU: H6J78A) is a server enclosure designed to protect IT equipment from shock and vibration. It combines robust steel construction with integrated shock absorbers for enhanced equipment safety.
What are the external dimensions and mounting capacity of this rack?
This rack measures 2200 mm H x 600 mm W x 1075 mm D and provides 36U of usable vertical space. It supports standard 19-inch equipment and accommodates up to 1,000 kg of static load.
How does the advanced shock feature protect my equipment?
The integrated helical shock absorbers isolate equipment from external vibrations and impacts, reducing the risk of hardware failure during transit or seismic events. They absorb and dissipate energy to maintain operational stability.
What is the maximum weight capacity of the Advanced Shock Rack?
The rack supports a static load capacity of 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) and a dynamic shock-rated load of 500 kg (1,102 lb). This ensures secure mounting of heavy servers and networking gear.
Is the rack compatible with 19-inch standard equipment?
Yes, the H6J78A rack features universal 19-inch mounting rails with 50 mm side-to-side adjustability. It fits all standard 19-inch servers, switches, PDUs, and cable management accessories.
How do I install the rack in my data center?
Position the rack on a level floor, anchor the base to the raised floor or seismic bolts per local codes, and adjust the feet for leveling. Mount equipment on the adjustable 19-inch rails using included cage nuts and screws.
Which cable management features are included?
The rack includes vertical cable channels, integrated tie-point strips, and rear cable management arms. These features support organized cabling, improve airflow, and simplify maintenance.
Does the rack support PDU and power strip installation?
Yes, you can install up to four vertical or horizontal PDUs using pre-punched mounting slots. The adjustable rails accommodate various PDU depths and orientations.
What materials and finish are used for the rack?
Constructed from 2 mm cold-rolled steel with reinforced steel framing, the rack is finished in durable textured black powder coating. This finish provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance.
How does the rack improve airflow and cooling?
Perforated front and rear doors deliver up to 75% open area for optimal airflow. The open-mesh design and adjustable fan mounts ensure efficient heat dissipation and uninterrupted cooling.
Is the H6J78A rack seismic certified or compliant?
Yes, the Advanced Shock Rack is designed to meet NEBS Zone 4 and IEC 61587-3 seismic standards. It provides certified performance in earthquake-prone environments.

You can add optional full-glass or perforated steel front doors, solid or vented side panels, and top or rear panels to meet security, airflow, and aesthetic requirements.
What are the recommended operating temperature and humidity ranges?
Operate the rack in environments between 10 °C and 35 °C (50 °F–95 °F) with relative humidity from 20% to 80% (non-condensing). These conditions ensure optimal equipment performance.
How does this rack differ from standard HPE racks?
Unlike standard racks, the H6J78A features integrated shock isolation technology, higher seismic ratings, and advanced vibration damping for mission-critical applications in transit or earthquake zones.
What maintenance is required for the shock absorbers?
Inspect shock absorbers annually for wear, ensure mounting hardware is tight, and replace any dampers that show signs of oil leakage or reduced damping performance.
