2U Vertical Wall Mount Rack - Steel Vertical Patch Panel Mounting Bracket for 19 inch Networking Equipment

At 35 lbs. capacity (highly dependent on the quality of your mounting surface, as well) this can't take a lot of weight, but it easily holds your network switch or a small server very handily. Mounting this on the side of a desk or under one really opens up a lot of options, especially if you need to add a few more slots to a mini-rack sitting on top of the desk, this underneath basically gives you an extra slot or two that way, so it compliments an existing setup that is outgrowing its home great.I loved the no-assembly folding arms design, and that they included a mini leveling tool to apply this straight- that's a lifesaver! The one thing that could have made this even better was if it included mounting guide stickers to put up for marking where to drill without having to hold this up and dot the wall in marker as a guide, but it is still pretty easy to do.The solid metal and smooth black finish are incredibly strong, and the included mounting bolts and nuts were fantastic, no complaints about the quality of materials at all. For a switch or small server, or adding to a growing desk-sitting rack, this is an excellent choice and I gladly give it a full 5-stars!!

This rack is pretty straight forward to use and set up. It's quite sturdy, minimal flex, so it should be able to hold heavier network equipment without a problem.I've installed this rack both on a wall and below a desk. The mounting options for this makes it quite versatile (down side of drilling holes).The holes where you put the screws allow you set up the screws on the walls, then pop the rack on/over the screws, and tighten the screws. This makes installing significantly easier as one doesn't need to hold both the rack, a screwdriver, and a screw.

I thought this was a straight piece of metal. It ends up having two rivetted hinges at the ends to unfold into the correct shape. Metal gauge is good enough if it was a continuous piece.I needed to look at the pictures more closely.PROs:+ Works of vertical installations+ Metal gauge is barely enoughCONs:- Unfolds- Not a continuous piece of metal

Simple, affordable vertical rack. Install is simple. Just unfold and drive screws into the mounting holes. Rack is sturdy enough to hold PDU's, light duty network switches, or similar.Can be mounted on a wall for vertical orientation, or under a desk or any tabletop for horizontal orientation. Both work great, I mounted under a workbench to hold a PDU. Very happy with it.

I didn't really have any expectations for this wall mountable mini rack. However, once it came in I was blown away. I am now in love with these and will definitely be ordering more. Super handy for mounting just a couple of piece of equipment of even a small network setup. I have just a patch panel and switch in my 2U unit which lets me use short patch cables and have a super clean look. The build quality was really impressive to me and I have absolutely no complaints. Very impressed with this unit.

I use this to extend out the back of my audio rack and support wire management. The quality is okay but it's not great. It gets the job done. If you're completely neurotic with your cabinet looking perfect, you may want it look for better. If you just need to get the job done this is fine
