Apparatuses and systems associated with a server rack to hold a plurality of rack components may include a cabinet having a front opening of width W, and a first mounting pole and a second mounting pole located parallel to each other at the front opening to facilitate receipt and to hold the plurality of rack components. The server rack may further include the first and second mounting poles having a spacing of x inches or centimeters from each other, with the mid-point of the spacing being offset from the mid-point of width W, that defines a first mounting space to receive a first subset of the rack components in a first orientation and a second mounting space to receive a second subset of the rack components in a second orientation that differs from the first orientation. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
