Advantages of the API-500 Lunchbox Format

API introduced the lunchbox format. This is a modular system that lets you choose the high-quality peripherals you want that can then be easily installed into a single rack. It's known as the API-500 format. Being able to choose the components you want is one of the biggest advantages of this system. Another one is the fact that everything can be powered from the rack itself, which saves you money because you don't have to buy separate power supplies for all the parts you choose. It's also handy to have everything installed in a single rack because it's much neater and more portable too.
