Slim Down Server Maintenance Time with Southco's New Rack Attach

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 22 August 2025 - Southco Asia Ltd., a subsidiary of Southco Inc., a leading global provider of engineered access solutions such as locks, latches, captive fasteners, electronic access solutions and hinges/ positioning technology has introduced RA Rack Attach to the server industries. As the race for the best AI technology heats up, manufacturers are turning to liquid immersion cooling to stabilize the servers of the future. While this technology provides far superior cooling properties compared to traditional fans, it also brings a new set of challenges, particularly around maintenance. Server blades are packed extremely tightly in a small space and immersed in liquid coolant, which can make it difficult to remove a single blade for service. During maintenance, screws can be dropped and lost in the enclosure and hands can slip on slick metal as technicians try to lift heavy, liquid-covered hardware. These mishaps risk costly damage to server blades, and more importantly, loss of server uptime. In this AI race, the more time you spend running the better off you are, and every second counts. That is why Southco is introducing the RA Rack Attach. The RA Rack Attach replaces traditional screws that normally secure a server blade to a rack. Instead, those screws are used to attach the RA to the blade, and an integrated pawl secures the blade to the rack. This pawl retracts when a technician presses an integrated trigger in the Rack Attach handle, providing easy release from the rack, and a secure grip for the technician as they lift out the blade in one fluid motion. No more screws slowing down maintenance, and increased uptime for servers as they support the tech of the future. While space is at a premium in these liquid cooled server racks, the RA Rack Attach barely takes up any. The device is only 7mm thick, but its steel construction enables it to support 50kg of weight. Technicians get a strong, ergonomic grip with barely any space used by the Rack Attach. These features drastically decrease maintenance time and risk of damage and injury to technicians. Implementing the Southco RA Rack Attach means lower costs, increased uptime, and a leg up in the race to power the technology of the future.

Nearly all fatalities from Afghanistan bus crash were deportees from Iran

More than 70 Afghans, many of whom had recently been deported from Iran, died in a tragic accident in western Afghanistan on Wednesday. Out of the 78 killed in the accident, 71 were traveling back to Afghanistan after being expelled or forcibly removed from Iran, a Taliban interior ministry spokesperson told media. The passenger bus, made up of mostly women and 17 children, collided with a fuel truck and a motorcycle in Herat province as it was on its way to Kabul. The collision resulted in an explosive fire, according to officials and eyewitnesses. "There was a lot of fire... a lot of screaming, but we couldn't even get within 160 feet to rescue anyone," eyewitness Akbar Tawakoli, 34, told AFP. New MEE newsletter: Jerusalem Dispatch Sign up to get the latest insights and analysis on Israel-Palestine, alongside Turkey Unpacked and other MEE newsletters "Only three people were saved from the bus," Tawakoli added. "They were also on fire and their clothes were burnt." Two of the three survivors from the crash later died of their injuries. Due to the nature of people's injuries, many of those who died were "unidentifiable", according to Mohammad Janan Moqadas, the chief physician at the military hospital that victims were taken to. Government news organisation Bakhtar News Agency said it was one of the deadliest accidents to have happened in recent years. Deportations The accident was a double tragedy as most of its victims were returning to Afghanistan after being deported from Iran. Millions of Afghans have fled to neighbouring Iran and Pakistan since the 1970s, and there have been major waves of migration from the country after the Russians invaded Afghanistan in 1979, the US invasion in 2003 and when the Taliban returned to power in 2021. Afghan refugees have faced systemic discrimination, including in the US, Iran and Pakistan. Afghanistan's economy close to collapse with 85 percent of people in poverty: UN Read More » More than 1.9 million people have returned or been forced to return to Afghanistan from both Iran and Pakistan in 2025, according to UN data from 18 July. More than 1.5 million of 1.9 million people are returning from Iran, including 410,000 who have been deported from Iran since 24 June. "Thousands of the returnees are unaccompanied children," a statement by the UN's Human Rights Office said in a press release on 18 July. "Following the Iran-Israel conflict, forced returns of Afghan nationals have escalated, including those with valid documentation. Security-related discourse has intensified anti-Afghan sentiment." Iran has approximately six million Afghans living in the country, two million of whom are without legal status. It gave undocumented Afghans a deadline of July to depart voluntarily, saying it could no longer support them. But since Israel's war on Iran in June, Iranian authorities have forced undocumented Afghans to return home over allegations that some Afghans acted as spies on behalf of Israel. Critics say this is a pretext for reducing its illegal Afghan population. Many of those forced to return to Afghanistan have spent years outside the country and return to a country beset by crippled infrastructure due to decades of war, high unemployment and few opportunities.
