Have you ever wondered how the name "1U" came about? If so, this is the article for you. You might be surprised to learn that the name "1U" comes from two words: "one unit". The unit size of 1U servers is 44.45mm, which means they are shorter in height than 2U and 3U servers, but still very powerful in terms of performance. While this can be confusing at first, it's easier to understand once you realize that all 1U servers use this standard system to measure their height and all other sizes use different measurements (in most cases).

A 1U server is the smallest form factor for a rack server, which means it is designed to fit in a standard 19-inch rack. The case itself is designed to house the motherboard and CPU (and associated heatsinks). Each CPU has access to its own dedicated memory bank, which can be accessed without any additional hardware interconnect. You can also find many different types of servers in 2U and 3U form factors depending on your needs, without worrying that they won't fit in the specific rack space they need to go, or if they will fit in another rack if necessary.

The servers are not standardized for depth or width. The rack mount cases are designed to deliver more power while taking up less space than standard rack servers. The 1U server is ideal for space-constrained environments such as small branch offices, retail stores, and call centers.

In the past decade alone, 1U servers have grown rapidly. A major reason for this is that more and more companies are looking for effective ways to reduce data center costs by increasing the density of existing racks or expanding server infrastructure without taking up additional space .

The server chassis in the rack are easily accessible by sliding them out the front and back on rails or rollers. Rack mounts are used to install a large number of servers in a small space for easy maintenance, upgrades and repairs.

The server delivers performance and manageability in an efficient form factor. The case platform is the smallest you can find, but it's also very powerful. The rack mount servers are a great option for companies that need to save space but still want to be able to scale out. They have excellent performance and can accommodate multiple storage devices and even larger disk arrays such as those based on SAS or Fibre Channel technology.

Yongu's 19-inch case is made of high-quality aluminum profiles. The CNC high-precision machining chassis has higher precision, and achieves maximum plasticity in a standard space. Extensive adaptation to traditional standard 1U/1.5U/2U/3U/ 4U chassis, the application range is very wide, non-standard can be customized. If you have any questions, please contact us!
