How to Add a Rack Diagram to a PowerPoint Presentation

Rack diagrams are created to make short work of configuring and documenting the server and network equipment of the rack frameworks. Rack diagrams may be useful when considering equipment purchasing or installing. Using the ConceptDraw Rack Diagrams solution, you can quickly and easily design a rack diagram from the set of vector graphics objects that are fully consistent with accepted industry standards. The Rack diagram will help you when considering and purchasing a rack of network equipment. When installing equipment, a rack diagram will help you to situate equipment quickly and in a due manner.
The PowerPoint presentation on the concept of your server room rack layouts can be very informative and helpful. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM allows you to easily create wireless network diagrams and then make a PowerPoint Presentation from your diagrams in a single click.

How to Create a Rack Diagram

A Rack Diagram represents the rack mounting of network and computer equipment that is installed as a server. Rack diagrams are used by system administrators and network architectors when making a decision regarding the purchase of network equipment. It is used to show how a particular server configuration can be composed, without making its physical installation. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM enhanced with the Rack Diagrams Solution can be successfully used for making various rack diagrams. It's important that the solution used to create a rack diagram contains templates that stick to industry standards, and supplies a big selection of device icons to cover multiple types of equipment for a number of network configurations.

The Rack Diagrams solution, including a vector stencil library, a collection of samples and a quick-start template, can be useful for all who deal with computer networks. Choosing any of the 54 library's vector shapes, you can design various types of Rack diagrams or Server rack diagrams visualizing 19" rack mounted computers and servers.
The vector stencils library "Rack diagrams" contains 33 rack design elements for drawing the computer network server rack diagrams.
"A 19-inch rack is a standardized frame or enclosure for mounting multiple equipment modules. Each module has a front panel that is 19 inches (482.6 mm) wide, including edges or ears that protrude on each side which allow the module to be fastened to the rack frame with screws. ...
Equipment designed to be placed in a rack is typically described as rack-mount, rack-mount instrument, a rack mounted system, a rack mount chassis, subrack, rack mountable, or occasionally simply shelf. The height of the electronic modules is also standardized as multiples of 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) or one rack unit or U (less commonly RU). The industry standard rack cabinet is 42U tall. ...
19-inch racks in 2-post or 4-post form hold most equipment in modern data centers, ISP facilities and professionally designed corporate server rooms. They allow for dense hardware configurations without occupying excessive floorspace or requiring shelving." [19-inch rack. Wikipedia]

This vector stencils library contains 195 cloud computing icons.
Use it to design cloud computing infographic and diagrams with ConceptDraw PRO software.
"Cloud computing, also on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing that provides shared processing resources and data to computers and other devices on demand. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services), which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort. Cloud computing and storage solutions provide users and enterprises with various capabilities to store and process their data in third-party data centers.
Cloud computing has become a highly demanded service or utility due to the advantages of high computing power, cheap cost of services, high performance, scalability, accessibility as well as availability." [Cloud computing. Wikipedia]

Racking

Rack Diagram is a two-dimensional frontal view of the rack which shows the placement of the specific equipment. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software proposes to execute the racking design process fast and easy using the Rack Diagrams solution from the Computer and Networks area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Rack Rate

The Rack Diagram visualizes in details the rack mounting of computer and network equipment, so it allows to show what equipment and racks are needed to buy, allows to estimate the rack rate and also helps to organize equipment on the racks virtually, without the real installation. To facilitate the rack diagrams designing, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software was extended with Rack Diagrams Solution from the Computer and Networks Area.
