  Is there a ‘standard’ distance between front and back rails that devices usually adhere to?

There isn’t a standard for rack depth, AFAIK, but one typically sees anywhere from 27in/69cm – 50in/127cm, in my 
experience.  42in/106.7cm & 48in/122cm are quite common depth dimensions.

Others here may have more specific information.
