## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=AC-U6246:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/AC-U6246:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

![1U Rack Mount for Raspberry Pi 4](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/30b2e415-1b19-4a8f-a7e5-5c662b684698_404443a7ffb.jpg)

UCTRONICS Ultimate Raspberry Pi Rack Mount Enclosure 2.0 is based on our previous ultimate Pi 4B rack-mount (U6187) and has been fully upgraded considering the customers' feedback. We designed a complete enclosure for the kit and Pis to make your rack neater artistic and provide separation and protection. In addition, we add the mounting bracket for Raspberry Pi, which allows each RPi removable from the front without taking everything apart for maintenance. What's more, you never need to worry about compatibility, the PoE HAT is isolated, no issue with working with mode A or mode B PoE switches.

**More Raspberry Pi Cluster Ideas**

You can build a Raspberry Pi SUPER CLUSTER using this rackmount. This project was insanely fun and we want YOU to do it. Why? "Because it's fun" and "Because you'll learn a lot".

- Learn and experiment on Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, Serverless, Microservices, and Orchestration on bare metal.
- Build a testing environment for your cloud-native apps.
- Build a home server for web applications and databases.
- Build your own NAS or media center.
- Create a home automation system.
- Learn distributed computing and deployment from the ground up.
- Build private servers for numerous games.

Note:

If you are using Raspberry Pi 3, the power can only be supplied by the USB type-C on the PoE Hat.

The rackmount does not support QC protocol.
