Review on Leviton 47605 140 Structured Media Enclosure by Anthony Record

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great box but accessories are a bit pricey

First the box itself - it works great. It fit snugly between my stilettos as intended. I wired an output in from an existing output with no problems (no special Leviton hardware needed for this). I drill holes in the top and run a conduit from the box to the attic to make it easier to run future cables. My main gripe with the box is that it can only come with a lid as standard, which isn't as easy as a door use. It should be able to come with a door. I chose the 28" vented door as a separate purchase and would recommend it if you plan to fill the box up a bit. I have a very small mini PC server, router, switch, cable modem and security camera so I need good ventilation. So that's the body itself. Now let's move on to the accessories. I'm going to talk about a few accessories I bought here and how well they worked. there are two of them in my case, one for the modem and one for my google wifi puck. It attaches easily and can easily be installed upside down if you wish. Overall pretty helpful. Lots of holes and slots around if you want to clip on electronics or run cables through. I have two of these, another is on the way. This is the most expensive mounting accessory I've found, but it's also the most useful. They can be mounted horizontally or vertically on either side of the case. They have mounting holes, but for the sake of simplicity I decided to velcro all my items to them. Overall very helpful. Finally "Multimedia Bracket" - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0018MPQVM/ Since they are a lot cheaper I was hoping to use them as a makeshift shelf instead of other accessories. But while the shelf itself is pretty solid, the three knobs holding it in place make it extremely fragile. I wouldn't trust him with my electronics. Well if you use it for its intended purpose I'm sure it'll be fine but personally I wouldn't use it as a shelf. recommend getting this (or a similar media case) to house your modem/router/etc. to keep. I will say that Leviton takes great pride in their items and I find the accessories in particular overpriced (which is why I only gave them 4 stars).

Pros
  • Multiple cutouts at top and bottom including two 2" cutouts at top make cable entry and routing easier
Cons
  • Nothing here
