StarTech.com WALLMOUNT6 12 in Deep Wall Mounting Bracket for Patch Panel – Wall Mount Bracket – 6U

Pros: Sturdy. It’s a 6u rack. Not much to say about it other than it does its job. Cons: Comes with only four cage nuts and bolts. Additional cage nuts are surprisingly expensive and not something you can easily find locally. If I had written this review the day I received it, I would have rated it one star because I was so angry about the tiny supply of cage nuts included. I would expect that a 6u rack would come with at least 12 if not 24 cage nuts and bolts.
On additional problem is that the holes for hanging the rack on the wall are, for some reason I cannot understand, spaced 16-3/4″ apart. I ended up having to drill my own holes 16″ on center. No holes would have been preferable to a spacing that is about the worst possible for most US walls.

Pros: My first experience with this model. The design is simple, so there isn’t a lot to say. I am more accustomed to an open type rack, so I had to adjust my wiring style to account for the closed walls. The metal is thick. It’s tough and rigid. It comes with a grounding wire, which is nice. The mount holes are 16″ apart, which can be handy if you don’t have a plywood to mount to. Cons: Not really any complaints. Overall Review: I appreciate that a data sheet exists for the product. I was working with strict size constraints and was glad to get the right product the first time, owing to the technical information I read in advance.

Overall Review: I’m new to racks, but I can tell this is built sturdy and will cover all basic network needs. I have it mounted onto wall studs with no dry wall in between so cable management is easier. All metal no plastic, came with all the mounting equipment I needed.

Pros: I mounted it to the wall and it’s holding a switch and patch panel Cons: It’s only meant for networking equipment as it doesn’t have a lot of depth to it. Overall Review: If you’re wanting to mount network equipment to the wall, this’ll do.
