StarTech.com 2U Wall Mount Network Rack - 14 in Deep (Low Profile) - 19 Patch Panel Bracket for Shallow Server, IT Equipment, Network Switches - 77lbs/35kg Weight Capacity, Black (RACK-2U-14-BRACKET)

Nice rack mount! Easy installation. Good buy!

In case you cannot tell by the picture there are two of these racks. One on each side under the speakers. You just cannot get this kind of quality any cheaper. I could have easily stacked the two, thrown some shelving material around them and had a fantastic looking sidecar for &120. They are extremely modular and come in different sizes depending on your needs. I not only would buy these again I am going to buy some more to keep for future projects.

Just what i needed for my setup. :)

This is a well made 6U Svr Rack ideal to upgrade or expand your network at home or in your business. Sturdy construction made out of steel and easy to install. I would recommend if you have one using an impact driver to screw the screws in but slowly. You want thr rack to be surface.

Overall the wall mount rack is well made. My major complaint is for something with wall mount in the title you sure should make the mounting holes the standard stud spacing which is 16 O.C. Not the 17 spacing this rack uses. Other wall mount units use a 16 spacing which works perfectly for most installations. With this rack you really should mount a plywood sheet on the wall first and mount the rack to it.

本品は縦置きで収容したい場合に強くお勧めします。 実用上、6Uの本品は通線のために2Uぐらい空けると思いますので、最上段と最下段を未使用のまま残し正味のところ4Uの機器を収めることができます。最上段は金具が邪魔をしますので機器を収容するときに金具を外す必要があります。6Uすべてを埋めてもよいですが、取り外した金具を紛失しないように保管に注意しましょう。 本品の鬼門は背中がつっかえていることです。奥行きのサイズ感として MikroTik CRS328-24P-4S+RM についてはやや厳しく、電源ケーブルを工夫しない限り入りません。MikroTik CRS326-24S+4Q+RM は入ります。 スチールラック等と組み合わせて横置きで使うのであれば奥行き制限のないオープンスタンド型の製品も検討されたほうが取扱いが柔軟でよろしいかと思います。奥行きの制限をよく検討して理解したうえで使うのであれば、本品の使い勝手はとても良いと思います。

No example of usage

Ive spent a decade designing and building various sized racks of computer equipment. I didnt need much for my home network setup but also didnt want to pay an arm and a leg for one either. This was super affordable, had U locations on both rails, included mounting hardware, and is more than sturdy enough. One complaint is the support rail used on top or bottom of rack does cut into the top/bottom U location, so if mounting 3 2U servers, it likely would give you issues.

The unit was not square with the rails being wider than 19 inches. I had to unscrew the brace and bend unit back to square. Then I had to mive the brace back because it was in the way and wouldnt allow a 3 inch unit to be mounted correctly in the first slot. I had to drill new holes and temount the brace. Additionall the unit is heavy so make sure it gets mounted to studs in the wall and do not use the included anchors in wall material that is not reinforced.

I love almost everything about this rack. Not too big, not too small, feels sturdy, looks good. Using this for a home network with LAN drops in every room. The open design worked well for my purposes. My biggest issue was the mounting itself. First on that, it does come with M5 (not M6 as described) cage nuts and bolts. I was mounting this to some open studs by myself which is always a little awkward. Anyhow, the provided wood screws’ heads were exactly the same size as the holes in the back of the rack. This means that you can’t screw in the wood screws and place the rack over them and slide it in to place. You would HAVE to have someone else hold it in place while you screwed it in. I also managed to strip 3 out of the 6 provided so I went out a bought #10 x 1-1/2in screws to replace the originals. They worked perfectly. I was able to slide the rack right over the top of them which made the mounting take all but 10 minutes with 9/64 pilot holes. After it was mounted, everything is perfect and beautiful. Pros: Cost, value, aesthetics, size, prime delivery, relatively light weight, sturdy. Cons: Hardware (both M5 cage nuts which should have been M6 as well as the awful wood screws)
