Product Description
CPI’s Seismic Frame® Two-Post Rack is designed specifically to support network equipment in areas with seismic activity. When earthquakes occur, equipment racks move back-and-forth with the building causing violent vibration through racks and equipment. An earthquake can easily damage or destroy non-seismic racks and equipment that are not carefully braced.
The welded, steel Seismic Frame Two-Post Rack resists the swaying motion caused by earthquakes to reduce the amount of vibration transferred through the rack to equipment and is less likely to be damaged during a seismic event, which means faster network recovery.

Key Features of the SeismicFrame® Two-Post Rack
The 13854-103 SeismicFrame® Two-Post Rack provides a sturdy foundation for network equipment in regions prone to earthquakes. Its welded steel construction limits sway and protects critical hardware during seismic events. Designed for seamless integration, the rack fits within standard 24‑inch raised‑access floor tiles. Engineered seismic mounts absorb and dissipate vibration, reducing stress on cables and circuit boards. Independent seismic testing verifies compliance with Telcordia® GR‑63‑CORE Zone 4 standards. This level of protection makes the rack an essential component of any seismic enclosure. With a 1,000‑lb (453.6 kg) load rating, the rack supports typical 19‑inch EIA‑310‑D equipment and optional 23‑inch wide configurations. The square‑punched zinc rails allow rapid equipment changes while maintaining structural integrity. As one of the leading 2 post seismic racks, it offers the same reliability as larger four‑post systems. CPI provides downloadable CAD, BIM and Visio files so engineers can model the rack within existing layouts. Installation instructions include step‑by‑step guidance for anchoring the seismic frame to concrete or steel floors. The design tools simplify the deployment of seismic racks across data center campuses. By minimizing equipment movement, the SeismicFrame® rack reduces downtime after an earthquake and speeds network recovery. Its robust design aligns with the needs of modern seismic enclosures used in hyperscale and colocation facilities. Choosing this rack ensures long‑term protection for mission‑critical infrastructure.
