What is the maximum number of chassis in an ECS EX5000D rack?

The correct answer is B. 7. Option B (7) is correct because the ECS EX5000D rack is engineered to house a maximum of 7 chassis, a limit set by the rack's physical dimensions, power distribution capacity, and cooling architecture working together. Option A (16) is far too high and may be confused with…

Explanation

Option B (7) is correct because the ECS EX5000D rack is engineered to house a maximum of 7 chassis, a limit set by the rack's physical dimensions, power distribution capacity, and cooling architecture working together. Option A (16) is far too high and may be confused with blade or module counts within individual chassis rather than chassis per rack. Option C (8) is close but exceeds the actual supported maximum by one, making it a common trap for test-takers who round up. Option D (5) represents an undercount, possibly confused with a smaller or differently configured rack variant.

Memory tip: Think "EX5000D = 7 chassis" by associating the "D" in the model name with "Dense but defined" - 7 is the sweet spot the design was defined around, not 8 or more.
