31420-500

The 31420-500 rack panel adapter provides a reliable solution for converting 19‑inch equipment to fit 23‑inch rack frames. Designed for server room environment adapters, the unit enables seamless integration of legacy gear into modern enclosures. Its clear construction and threaded #12‑24 mounting holes ensure a secure, professional appearance. Each adapter is supplied as a matched pair, allowing a 2‑RMU height configuration that maximizes space efficiency. The universal 5/8‑inch to 5/8‑inch to 1/2‑inch (15.9 mm x 15.9 mm x 12.7 mm) mounting pattern accommodates a wide range of devices. This flexibility makes the 31420-500 a versatile component among rack panel adapters. The 19″ to 23″ conversion reduces the need for additional chassis, lowering overall floor space requirements in dense server rooms. By aligning panels flush with the rack surface, the adapter improves airflow and simplifies cable routing. These benefits support the high‑density demands of contemporary data center environments. Installation requires only standard tools and the threaded #12‑24 holes align with existing rack hardware for quick mounting. The clear finish allows easy visual inspection of bolt torque and panel positioning. CPI's detailed spec sheet provides all dimensions and tolerances needed for precise deployment.
