StarTech.com 6U Wall Mount Network Rack - 14 Inch Deep (Low Profile) - 19 Patch Panel Bracket for Shallow Server and IT Equipment, Network Switches - 44lbs/20kg Weight Capacity, Black (WALLMOUNT6)

Recent versions of this have the holes 16-inches on center for stud-mounting and it makes a difference. Extremely sturdy for my shallow depth networking equipment.

The physical description online is exactly what I received. I put in a patch panel, network switch, UPS battery back up, surge protectors to make a small network tidy and functional. I couldt ask for more. Very sturdy rack.

Very happy with this rack. Much stronger than I expected, even without the top brace. The square holes are cut perfectly to allow for easy installation of cage nuts and mounting holes are perfectly 16 on center. Was also really pleased with the level of packaging in the box to ensure that there was no damage in transit. In the rack is: 1U AC Infinity 10 shelf Cable Matters 24 slot keystone patch panel IFJF wire management 24 Port TP-Link gigabit switch 1U AC Infinity blank plate Tripp Litte 12 socket PDU

Ive installed a few of these racks in small spaces to hold various networking equipment. They are easy to hang and are light weight, so I can do it by myself. The only thing to watch is that your equipment is shallow enough. Full size Ubiquity switches have issues, otherwise pieces like the Dream Machine or the non-Pro switches seem to work well. It comes with some basic mounting hardware which is useful, but sometimes I need to replace the wall mounts with anchors.

This is the first time that I have purchased a networking cabinet for personal use but have been in IT for over 25 years and I can say that I was IMPRESSED with the quality, form, fit and function of this cabinet. Very solid, well packed, and came with extra cage nuts/bolts, etc. Really appreciate a company stepping up and offering quality products at a reasonable price. Love that the HQs is based in the U.S.....THANK YOU!

I recently migrated my home network into a more manageable wired network and wanted to be able to convert a junk coat closet into a network closet. The rack I had already purchased was way too small (4u, 6in deep) and cost twice as much. I ordered and received this rack the next day and had everything mounted in a few minutes. The rack only came with 12 screws/cage nuts, but I can deal with that until I can get some more. Otherwise, the 6u rack is durable and perfect for what I intended.

Sturdy and easy to install. I use it for the personal network at my home to house my 24 port switch and my router, modem. I got a shelf for the bottom to go along with. Great purchase.

I was looking for a small rack to mount my keystone panel and rackmount switch and to allow for future expansion of my home network without buying a bigger rack. This rack from StarTech proved to be a great solution. It comes with holes and hardware to wall-mount this item but also a bag full of cage nuts and screws to rackmount plenty of network equipment. I was originally gonna give this item 5 stars but I decided to dock a star for not supporting rackmount cases. I planned on installing a 2U rackmount case into this rack for a computer that will function as an NVR for a future surveillance system, but this rack isnt deep enough. Otherwise, you cant go wrong with this 12U rack from a great company.

This was my first time mounting a wall rack of any kind and I found the StarTech to be very straightforward to install. The wall I used did not have studs on 16 centers so I first mounted a 3/4 plywood backing board with .25x2.5 lag screws and fender washers then mounted the rack to the plywood using the included screws. No problems there. I find StarTechs decision to only include 3U worth of mounting hardware with a 6U rack a little disappointing especially considering how expensive their hardware is to purchase separately relative to their competitors. I think I speak for most when I say that I would gladly pony up the extra couple of bucks that it would cost (even allowing for a 100% margin!) to include a full complement of hardware with the rack.

This is a great rack in terms of overall appearance and build quality so I can easily recommend it. While the cable management cutouts are not sharp they are still metal and therefore have the potential to damage cables over time. The addition of rubber or plastic grommets here would be a good idea. Also, as others have noted it should come with enough cage nuts to properly complement its 6U size.
