Rack Fabrication

Pre-built head-end racks fabricated, wired, tested and labelled in our UK facility before they ever reach site. Every cable terminated, every connection measured, every loudspeaker output verified — reducing installation time, eliminating field errors, and providing a rack that is ready to plug in.

Our standard build covers everything from compact 12U units up to 36U / 3300 W full PAVA racks. Each project receives a dedicated build station, a single engineer accountable for the build, and a witnessed Factory Acceptance Test before the rack is sealed for transport.

Capacity: 12U – 42U · up to 3300 W
Acceptance: Witnessed FAT
Lead Time: Standard 3 weeks · Expedited 1 week
Wiring: BS 7671 / IET 18th Edition
Scope

What’s in a Voxiss Rack

01
Mechanical Build

19" rack chassis selected for the project — floor-standing or wall-mount — with all U-positions populated, blanking plates fitted, and cable management installed.

02
Power Distribution

Mains intake, isolators, distribution, and EN 54-4 power supply equipment with sealed lead-acid battery banks sized to the project standby calculation.

03
VACIE & Amplifiers

EN 54-16 certified voice alarm controllers and IP-amplifiers wired and configured to the project zone matrix.

04
Network Infrastructure

Managed switches, fibre patch panels, SIP gateways and OCC links pre-configured and pre-tested as part of the rack build.

05
Marshalling & Termination

External cable interfaces marshalled to a dedicated patch panel for clean field termination — reducing on-site time and eliminating misidentified circuits.

06
Labelling & Documentation

Every cable, every device, every output labelled to the schematic. Complete as-built rack documentation pack issued with the rack on delivery.

How We Work

Build Process

Stage 1
Pre-Build Review

Design package reviewed by the build team, equipment kitted to the bench, and a sequenced build plan agreed with the project engineer.

Stage 2
Mechanical & Wiring

Devices fitted, wiring loomed and dressed, terminations made to the design schedule. Continuity tested at each step.

Stage 3
Configuration & Test

Software loaded, zone matrix configured, dummy loads applied, every output measured. Internal test pack signed off by a second engineer.

Stage 4
FAT & Despatch

Witnessed Factory Acceptance Test with the client. Rack sealed, palletised, and dispatched with full documentation pack.
