An outdoor unit for an air conditioner having a reinforcing structure is disclosed. The outdoor unit comprises a base plate arranged at a bottom portion of a body of the outdoor unit; an upper plate arranged at an upper portion of a body of the outdoor unit; a plurality of support members connected between the base plate and the upper plate and arranged towards a circumference of the body with predetermined intervals; and a reinforcing member arranged between the support members for supporting the body of the outdoor unit, wherein the reinforcing member includes an upper reinforcing rod connected to both sides of the upper plate and prolonged to a lower direction; a lower reinforcing rod connected to both sides of the base plate and prolonged to an upper direction; and a connection reinforcing rod connected between the upper and lower reinforcing rods, thereby simplifying a construction of the reinforcing member which increases an intensity of the body of the outdoor unit and reduces a vibration. According to this, fabricating processes are simplified and a fabrication cost is minimized.
