    I recently purchased a house and decided I was going to run ethernet all throughout it. I put in around 40 ports (which might seem excessive for a 3 bedroom house under 1200 square feet but can you ever be TOO connected?). I needed a basic IDF to connect all the ports to, but didnt want to pay for or deal with the side of a full rack. This little 6U guy worked perfectly! I have a tray on top, two patch panels, a 48 port switch and a rack mounted PDU... and still have one U to spare! Im thinking of putting in a camera system as well as whole home audio. When I do, this unit will be a little too small, but so far I like it so much that Im considering just buying a 2nd one. The unit is very sturdy and looks pretty slick with its black powder coating. I dont think much could possibly go wrong with this thing, although I do wish that it came with a few more rack nuts.

    Works well for small jobs with switch and patch panel

    Super easy to install. Just perfect for my small server room. Really does the job.

    I originally was looking for a 4U solution but settled on the 6U since it was the smallest 12 deep rack I could find for a reasonable price. Upon receiving it, it looked a lot smaller than I envisioned (even after having measured out the spot it was going into), so I thought I should have got the 8U instead. It included wall mount screws and 12 (i.e. 3U worth) of cage nuts/washers/screws in black. So far this has been enough, but Ill need to buy more if I want to fill the rack (luckily some of the equipment you buy for these comes with their own nuts/screws). The instructions are pretty barebones (basically say mount it to the wall). I ended up putting a single screw into a stud, hanging the rack on that single screw (while still providing some support with one hand), placing a level on top (there is enough of a ledge at the back to hold a level), then marking the next screwhole. Once I had 2 screws in holding it level, I could put the other two in easily. The holes for mounting are exactly 16 apart to line up with studs. The cross piece worked well to use as cable strain relief for my keystone patch panel since it did not come with one. I mounted a Tripp Lite 16-port keystone patch panel and a Ubiquiti USG Pro 4 in the rack so far, and both fit perfectly.

    Better then expected. Strong and finished well.

    This is a great rack! I put this in my networking closet at home. It was simple enough to install, and definitely serves its purpose. If I had any critique for it, it would be that it didnt come with enough rack clips. But, in all fairness, most of us geeks have extra of those sitting around.

    Good well made product. It could be a bit cheaper but compared to a proper comms cabinet I guess the price is about right, looks the part and is sturdy enough.

    If youre looking for an equipment rack format that has standard rack screw tapping, this is not it. The hardware that comes with it consists of inserts for the included screws, which snap into pre punched square holes. Yes there are only 12 screws/inserts/dress washers, for the 6U version, as others have mentioned. My biggest problem with this is that it is very difficult to wire equipment with the back panel being the way it is.

    Its a rack, does its job. The accuracy of the cutouts isnt the best. The top U is blocked by the bar going across the top.

    Assuming you mounted it properly to studs, this thing is incredibly sturdy. Should be able to support any equipment no problem.
