Ever taken apart an iPhone?
Those connectors smaller than a grain of rice—shuttling tens of gigabits per second—
Many are made by Luxshare.
But you didn’t know.
Just like you don’t know that half the cable harnesses, power distribution units, high‑speed backplanes—
In this city’s server racks running late into the night—
Also come from Luxshare.
Three decades. From a single wire harness to the skeleton of an entire data center.
It doesn’t generate compute.
It’s the blood vessel, the nerve, the load‑bearing wall of compute.
? Luxshare Server Rack
Writing the DNA of precision manufacturing into 42U of steel.
? Precision: The Arrogance of 0.1mm
Luxshare started with connectors.
0.3mm contact pitch. 5,000 mating cycles. Contact resistance ≤10mΩ—
That’s millimeter‑level engineering.
At the rack level, the standard didn’t drop.
Column bend angle tolerance ≤0.5°. Parallelism ≤1mm/2m.
Door gaps ≤1.5mm. Perfectly symmetrical. OCD‑approved.
This isn’t a blacksmith‑hammered cabinet. It’s a CNC‑bent skeleton.
Same paint line as Foxconn.
AkzoNobel powder coating. 60‑80μm thickness. Salt spray ≥300h.
Five years without rust. Ten years without fading.
The parts you don’t see? That’s where Luxshare’s pride lives.
? Skeleton: Not Just Load‑Bearing. It’s Faith.
SGCC / SPCC cold‑rolled steel. Posts start at 2.0mm.
Dynamic load: 1200kg. Static: 1500kg (42U standard).
Not lab data. Real‑world: forklift lifts a fully loaded rack, moves it 20 meters, rear door still opens and closes.
Seismic ready.
Anchor bolt holes + top bracket provisions.
Magnitude 8. Rack stands. Business runs.
Conductive oxidation finish (optional).
Designed for shielded server rooms. Ground resistance ≤0.1Ω.
Not every rack enters a classified facility. This one does.
?️ Airflow: Every Watt Is Accounted For
Front door perforation ≥70%.
Hexagonal honeycomb mesh. 30% stronger than round holes.
Intake area ≈ 0.8㎡. Enough for 20 4U servers breathing simultaneously.
Rear door: split, fan‑ready.
4×12038 industrial fans. Push‑pull hot‑swap module.
Fault LED lights up. 10 seconds to swap. CPU didn’t even throttle.
Overhead busway interface (optional).
No cable trays. No messy Velcro.
Copper bus direct plug. Power on tap.
For the first time, “tidy” isn’t the only word for server room cabling.
? Cabling: Connector DNA, Self‑Aware.
6 D‑ring cable managers per side.
Not stamped steel. Zinc‑alloy die‑cast. Polished edges. Zero burrs.
100 cable passes. Sheath intact.
1U / 2U horizontal lacing bars + vertical cable channels.
Fiber, Cat6, power—
Horizontal stays horizontal. Vertical stays vertical.
The OCD netadmin’s dream. Other netadmins see it and weep.
Dual bottom cable entries + firestop putty tray.
Cables in. Putty seals. Fire inspection? Passed.
? Intelligence: Racks That Talk.
Smart busway monitoring module (optional).
Voltage, current, power, harmonics—each outlet independently metered.
That one server secretly pulling 500W idle? Dashboard sees everything.
Temp/humidity sensor ports.
Front, rear, top. Three probes ready.
Hot zone alert. Cold zone fan slowdown. PUE drops 0.1.
Electronic access lock (optional).
RFID / fingerprint / remote command.
Not to keep honest people out. To keep 3 AM “unauthorized HDD relocations” from happening.
? Customization: Non‑Standard Is the Norm. Standard Is Just the Starting Point.
Depth: 600 / 800 / 1000 / 1100 / 1200mm.
Width: 600 / 800 / 900mm (telco‑grade).
Height: 22U to 47U. Every 1U counts.
Colors: RAL 9003 (signal white) / 9004 (jet black) / 7035 (industrial grey).
Silkscreen: logos, IP ranges, QR codes—whatever you need, we print.
Lead time: 7 business days (non‑standard prototypes). Volume orders: split shipments. Ready when you are.
Luxshare supply chain speed isn’t a slogan.

? Who Needs Luxshare Racks?
-
Edge nodes for internet giants: CDN下沉, 5G edge—small footprint, fast delivery, high density.
-
Finance / government data centers: Import servers? Maybe. Racks? Domestic—but the premium tier.
-
Precision manufacturing peers: Huawei, ZTE, Inspur. Luxshare isn’t “under evaluation.” It’s “qualified.”
-
Overseas projects: UL, IEC, full English manual. Leaves the port, lands in Silicon Valley.
-
People who used to know only Foxconn: Now you know another name.
One last thing:
The compute era worships the chip.
But the chip needs a socket. The socket needs a cable. The cable needs a rack. The rack needs to stand firm.
It has stood for thirty years.
It will stand thirty more.
