Rackmount vs Desktop Phone Farm Box — Layout Guide

**Desktop boxes (55×38×16 cm class)** Best for 20–100 nodes, flexible deployment, lower initial cost. Stack on shelves; one PC controls 3–5 boxes. **Rackmount / OEM cabinets** Best for 50–500+ nodes, clean cable routing, PDU integration, data-center HVAC. Lead time 15–30 days after drawing approval. **2U-style planning** Not every rack build uses full 42U — partial racks and bench cabinets are common. Send floor plan in RFQ.
