Key Features

Secures one or two Mac Studio computers inside a compact and rugged steel enclosure.

Ideal for Use in Server Rooms

3U height and standard mounting holes enable easy installation into any standard server rack.

Easy Computer Access

Removable front panel secured with thumbscrews allows easy installation of and access to the Mac Studios with no tools required.

Front Panel Power Switches and USB Ports

Front panel buttons enable easy operation of the Mac Studios rear-mounted power switches; USB-A ports enable connection of a USB peripheral to each computer.

Provides access to computers’ SD card slots and front and back panel ports, enabling you to connect and disconnect cables easily.

9.5-inch mounting depth plus firm rubber cushions that hold the Mac Studios securely in place during transport make RackMac Studio perfect for use in portable racks and shallow molded rack cases.

Cool Design

Go with the Airflow – Supports the Mac Studio Thermal Design

RackMac Studio secures your Mac Studios without trapping them in recirculating hot rack air, supporting their thermal design to keep them as cool in a rack as out on a desk. Ventilation holes on the enclosure’s front panel plus an enclosed chamber beneath each computer ensure the computers’ ability to draw in cool air through their bases, while a completely open back enables them to expel warm air out the back unimpeded. The RackMac Studio is designed to allow normal WiFi and Bluetooth wireless operation in most configurations (depending on rack type and position in rack), so you can use wireless devices and iOS® device control apps.

Space for SSDs

Secure Thunderbolt or USB SSDs Under Each Mac Studio Computer

RackMac Studio provides space beneath each Mac Studio computer to house Thunderbolt or USB SSDs (sold separately) up to 3.2 inches wide by 0.75 inch tall. Simply remove the rear access panel, apply the supplied adhesive-backed magnet to the bottom of an SSD, insert the SSD and connect it to the computer, and then reinstall the panel. The space is also suitable for other thin, bus-powered devices.
