a good solution for a patch panel or other underdesk or under-shelf install.



As solid as my Datacenter racks. Stories of this flimsiness are wrong or were corrected.

Easy to setup in my office. I do like that each potential "row" is numbered.

Well built


Sturdy, easy to assemble and well marked mounting holes.


Very sturdy All 3 doors lock Good ventilation and has holes for optional fans on the top and bottom


The shelf is very sturdy and fit perfectly in my server rack. The screws that came with it for mounting are large and have a tapered metal washer/sleeve and a nylon washer. It just looks tough sitting on the rack. The design allows you to have a lipped front/back if you want, or you can mount it the other way to have it flush.


This rack is made of very heavy gauge steel. It is very rugged and very easy to assemble. It may help to have a second set of hands to put it together. I love that StarTech included some cable management hooks! Very helpful! The price is excellent. Would buy a second rack if needed. I looked at other open frame racks and StarTech's was the only one that came with everything I needed and then some. Plus it is a full size 42u rack.




- Sturdy Rack - Wheels are incredibly well-made with greased bearings - Looks good, sweet red "SR" Logo on the front. - The fasteners are super sturdy
