Rackmount & 2U Phone Farm Buyer Guide

What buyers mean by rackmount phone farm

A **rackmount phone farm** is a row of **2U rack-style chassis** each holding **20 real Android motherboard nodes** (no screen, no battery). Buyers mount multiple boxes in a server rack or industrial shelf row instead of loose phones on desks. Cyou Phone Farm ships from Guangzhou with burn-in serial sheets and export packing for overseas QA labs and enterprise device fleets.

Rack stacking and cooling

  • Leave **vertical clearance** between stacked boxes—do not seal heat between chassis without ducted airflow.
  • Plan **rear exhaust** path; ambient room ideally below ~26°C for 24/7 burn-in.
  • **PDU sizing:** dedicated **10 A** circuit per box (+25% headroom) on a labeled farm PDU strip.
  • Enterprise racks: document **U position**, serial per box, and VLAN per rack row for LAN OTG scans.

Scaling beyond one box

  • **USB mirroring:** ~1 box per USB host controller; ~2 boxes with dual USB controller cards on the control PC.
  • **LAN OTG:** additional boxes on the same farm VLAN after USB authorization.
  • **40+ nodes:** primary + backup control PC and gigabit switch per rack—see /help/large-farm-network-deployment.

MOQ, lead time, and export

  • Sample and single-box quotes available; bulk discounts commonly from **5+ units**.
  • Standard lead time **7–21 business days** after order confirmation; custom mixes **14–30 days**.
  • Export: DHL/FedEx/UPS from Guangzhou with foam bracing, burn-in sheet, commercial invoice.
