Review on 🔌 Tripp Lite 8U/12U/22U Expandable Wall-Mount 2-Post Open Frame Rack, Adjustable Network Equipment Rack, Switch Depth, 18-Inch Deep, 5-Year Warranty (SRWO8U22), Black, 17.8-Inch (8U), 24.8-Inch (12U), 42.3-Inch (22U) x 20.11 x 18.24 by Todd Mohr

I know Tripp Lite for their reputation for power protection products, so I had high hopes that their line of network racks would be moved - unfortunately it didn't happen, at least not for me. When I first saw the trademark fall off, I should have just stopped doing it. But after sorting the screws (I had to count them to determine which were which), I assembled what appeared to be a very weak and noticeably bowed frame. (See my left and right side measurements to see the minimum ¾ inch dissonance.) I figured it might straighten out after adding stabilizer bars to the side and tried it only to find the screw holes didn't were fully threaded. for one, which renders the support bar and the product unusable. If I'm paying more than $100, I don't want to knock and remake my steel parts. I'm not sure I would trust this structure to store my critical network gear - and definitely not at 12U and 22U, which I think is just a publicity stunt in this case to claim it's expandable. By the way, "extendable" means that you can hang spare parts of the rail with some cable ties on the side. And if you ever want to expand, you'll have to disassemble the entire structure and reconfigure the wall mount.
