8U/12U/22U Expandable Wall-Mount 2-Post Open Frame Rack, Adjustable Network Equipment Rack, Switch Depth, 18" Deep, 5 Year Warranty (SRWO8U22), black, 17.8 (8U) , 24.8 (12U), 42.3 (22U) x 20.11 x 18.24

This rack is fantastic! I needed only 15 minutes to assemble it. The metal is very robust and of good quality. Once assembled and mounted, the whole rack is quite rigid. I have mine assembled with all the optional rack rails, making it the full 22U, and have lots of heavy gear mounted to it. I can grab a hold of it and give a pretty aggressive shaking and it will not move. The rack comes with two pairs of rails in various lengths. These different sets of rails can be used alone to get the 8U or 14U rack spacing, or they two sets can be combined with the included couplers to make the rack a full 22U. The package comes with 24 mounting screws. Note, however, that these screws do not have washers on them. This can be an issue for some owners/installers as tightening a screw or bolt directly the device without a washer will usually scratch the paint on the device and sometimes dent into the metal of the device making it look "used" when removed. I highly recommend this rack!

I was a little worried after reading the reviews (bad welding, can't hold equipment weight), but noticed most of the critical ones were around 2013 which didn't seem to include the diagonal brace that now comes with the product. Not sure, but i didn't see any of the issues mentioned by others from a few years ago. The install was pretty simple, and putting the rack together only took about 5 minutes. I picked the "deep" version since i had a few network switches that were around 15 inches deep and that fit those the best. Loaded a lot of gear into it (60-80 lbs) and it does not show any signs of sagging or strain from the weight as other mentioned; or bad welding either. Perhaps they noticed the problems and fixed? Good product, great price, would recommend.

Ordered this for a home wiring project. It is a good sturdy build and the flexibility in sizing is really nice for those undecided on what size rack they will need. Bare in mind that this is not a full depth rack, so you wont be able to put in full size rackmount computer equipment, but it is a lot deeper than many of the telco racks out there. For me this was awesome as it allows me to put not only my network gear, but also a few short depth server cases in the rack. Overall very pleased and mine came with all the necessary hardware as well. Came with 24 total screws for rack mounting hardware, so if you use the full rack you will need more.

This is a great alternative to an in-wall structured media panel. If you have the space in your home, this is the way to go. This rack is inexpensive and sturdy enough for most applications. Mine is holding my router and cable modem on one shelf , a 48 port Cat5e patch panel used to terminate all of the phone and Ethernet runs in my home, a D-Link 24-Port Rackmountable Gigabit Switch DGS-1024D , a 24-port Cat5e patch panel used for phone distribution, and another shelf which holds a Synology DS409 NAS ( newer version ) and an APC SMT750 Smart-UPS 750VA LCD 120V . The rack has no issues with the weight of these items. I do structured wiring installation, and I have installed this rack in many clients' homes. Never had a problem. I'm docking half a star (rounded to a full star) because the rack is a little flimsy before it is mounted, and you have to be careful to mount it square. Otherwise a great purchase.

The rack is high quality and is quite sturdy. It's easy to mount - I managed to do it on my own but I recommend two people to make things easier. I am using this for a home network so price was an important factor. So far I only have a few things installed but I plan to fill up the 12U configuration with a few more items. Even better, if I need more room later I can expand it to 22U.

Sorry TrippLite...Not happy with this piece of hardware. This is a great tool for us geeky guys that have to have a small router and switch with patch panel in the garage or on our wall. I have this rack on my wall because I bought it for my client to replace their 9 year old Chatsworth wall mount 12U frame. Unfortunately, for all the expansion parts in this rack...it's just not strongly built. I mounted it to the wall, and was able to move the bottom corner up nearly a half inch with fingertip pressure even after tightening up the corners, the lag bolts, and the hex bolts. The only way I could make the rack stable was lowering the wall mount bottom leg about 1 inch and then it was out of square. I ended up going back to the old office and harvesting their old Chatsworth rack because compared to the Tripp Lite, the Chatsworth rack was rock solid. I mounted the old Chatsworth on their backing board and squared it up. The equipment was solidly mounted to this rack and was not moving a millimeter. I wouldn't put any weight in to this Tripp Lite rack for that reason. I would have sent it back but it was already out of the box and the packaging was lost.

Works great

These racks are great for flexible size situations and allow you to easily install a lot of equipment.

Excelent rack for the price. I've had this for over one year, and it's not fully loaded, just a couple of patch panels, two switches and a server. I have it assembled as a 14U, which is enough for me. It does what it's expected to do, hold things up without bending.

size is correct based on the description. and works as described. good rack.

A little light, but worked perfectly (fully loaded)

Great product

This was the solution to get a security system off the desk and manage all the cables required.
