19" Server Rack Cabinet 12U – 35" Deep Network Cabinet Enclosure with Glass Door, Locking Panels, Cooling Fans, PDU & Shelf, IT Rack for Servers, Switches, AV Equipment

I picked up the Sysracks 18U 35" deep rack for my studio and network gear, and it’s been a great investment. Functionality This rack has plenty of depth, which was key for me. It fits my blade server, NAS, Blackmagic studio gear, network equipment, ISP router, and a small UPS with no problem. I’ve got plans to add a rack-mounted UPS soon, and there’s still room to grow. The LCD screen with temperature readouts and fan control is a nice touch—really helpful for keeping tabs on airflow. I swapped the stock fans for Noctuas to get better performance, and that upgrade made a noticeable difference. Ease of Setup Setup was straightforward, and once it’s built, it’s rock solid. The included casters are a huge win—I’ve got enough slack in my cables that I can roll the rack out for maintenance without unplugging anything. That flexibility makes a big difference when you’re working in a tight space. Looks It’s clean and professional-looking. The matte black finish and simple design make it blend in nicely with my studio setup. It doesn’t scream for attention, but it looks sharp and well put together. Quality Build quality is excellent. The panels are sturdy, the rails fit perfectly, and everything locks and latches the way it should. Once assembled, it feels like it’ll last for years without issue. Storage Capacity 18U is plenty for my current setup, and the 35" depth gives me room for longer gear and clean cable management. Even with everything installed, I’ve still got space to expand and keep things organized. Value for Money This was one of the more affordable options I found, and it absolutely delivers. It’s not soundproof or dampened, but for the price, it’s more than worth it. Between the build quality, airflow, and flexibility, I couldn’t ask for more at this price point

Update2: The parts that were damaged in shipping were replaced by the manufacturer. Thanks so much for that! Now that I have undamaged panels, I can say this rackmount system is really nice. It looks great. It's very heavy duty and there's nothing wobbly. It's longer than I expected, it's a long rectangle - but that's fine. The instructions for assembling it are a little unclear, but you can find videos online. Update: The manufacturer contacted me and they will send me replacement pieces for the damaged parts, and that the damage must have happened in shipping. Once I get those parts and install them, I will update my rating - I think this will be a great cabinet once I get parts that aren't damaged. I am super disappointed in this purchase. I paid almost $500 and another &70 for shipping on top of that. The delivery box was in pretty good shape but once opened it was clear the unit that was delivered to me has been used before. It is damaged in multiple places. All of the small screws/bolts/nuts were not in bags, so they were all strewn about the inside of the box - I'm sure having all those small metal pieces rattling around inside the box through transit contributed to some of the issues with this unit. Take a look at the pictures. Both sides and the rear are badly bent so that they don't fit well. One of the mechanisms that holds one of the sides in place has been torn...It's plastic, seems like someone forced one of the sides to open without using the Open mechanism. The worst part - the top piece of this unit is badly damaged. It is ugly. I don't think I can use this unit. I'm not sure how possible it is to get a refund now, but if you're thinking about purchasing one please know that I regret this purchase.

I put this together this afternoon and found this the worst - by far - 'put together' of any product I've ever received. The instructions are sparse, missing sections (no mention of side panels, front door latch receiver, shelf mounting, and more), crumpled, but nicely waxed. Once assembled, it's quite presentable barring its flimsiness of thin-metal panels clanking around and only somewhat secured. I do love the air flow through circulation and its overall roominess, as well as the power integration, fans, and temperature sensor. For these functionalities I give it 3 stars. I can't recommend it as a non-painful assembly, or for its security. But if you're ok with these and 3 or so hours trying to puzzle-piece it together, then its for you.

It's a nice rack. Big, good build quality. The problem isn't with the rack but the seller. They claim they are selling a new product when it's clearly used. It has big dents, scrapes and scratches all over the outside, one of the casters is so worn out it doesn't roll anymore. But the packaging was fine. And no amount of delivery mishandling is going to wear a wheel out on a caster. The real unfortunate part is that it's way too big to try and return. So I'm stuck paying new prices for a used and beat up rack. Bottom line, I love the rack and will buy another one if I need it. But I will be buying straight from their website from now on and not through shady sellers on Amazon.

This is a great server rack and well-built, especially for the price. Pros: - Well-built and sturdy - Casters, which allow for mobility and work/roll well - Comes with fan, mountable power strip, and one mountable appliance shelf (maybe 12 inches?) - Side panels are easily removable via their latches and each have a locking mechanism (although I wouldn't rely on it) - Looks great, especially the glass clear front panel Cons: - The instructions could really use some work. It took much longer to put it together than needed, and for some items (e.g., installing locks, door latches, etc.) there were no instructions at all. Other areas the instructions were so vague I had to guess (still not sure parts are put together correctly...) - Back panel is screwed in, which if you're working with anything over around 30" in depth, makes it challenging to work on from the side. That means you will either need to leave the back panel off or unscrew it each time. Recommend making the back panel work on a latch system similar to the sides, or at the very least, use thumb screws that can be easily removed. - Front panel droops quite a bit when open. It is not a big deal, but may want to consider adding some thicker/more durable washers on the hinges. All-in-all, very happy with the purchase and recommend it!

This unit will house any normal server chassis without issue and is built out of very sturdy materials for the frame. The sides attach easily and the customization for rack posts is very helpful to get things just where you want them. On top of all of that, it looks nice too! The included PDU and fan are a nice touch. The only reason it's knocked down one star is because the shelf arrived dented and one of the spring latches for the side panels isn't functioning (meaning the side is leaning out a little). It doesn't affect the main functionality of the product, but it was disappointing. I contacted Sysracks through their website and will update if and when they respond. Update: they responded quickly and after checking the pictures, are sending me a new latch. Top notch service and well worth the 5 star rating!

I must say that I am happy with this rack, i'm currently in the process of installing my servers and switches and so far so good. Took about 30 mins to put together. So it is not super hard in case you might be wondering Side note the instructions that they send are kind of dated, and the QR code that links to an instruction video on youtube helped. But it was not for this 12U rack

As others had said the instructions to put together aren't really there. This didn't make it any more difficult for me. The process of putting this together should be easy to figure out, with what's provided with no issues. I know I'm not using this as a normal person would. I have my Receiver, main computer, and NFS with some other objects. The only thing I had issues with was the Temp/Fans module at the top. I reported it broken to support and they send a new one no, questions asked. Finished putting it in a few minutes ago and works perfectly. (as you see in the picture, it's taken apart and exposed. This isn't the case anymore). Just need a rackable switch and UPS and everything will be perfect till I fill it in with more servers. (side note: Don't put the feet on if you plan to use the rollers. they get in the way a lot. I'm just too lazy to take it all apart to take them off...)
