StarTech RK812WALLO Frame Mount Equipment Review

Given the particular problem of installing an audio equipment rack (I work as a voice actor) in an existing bookshelf, I scoured the internet for solutions. There was only one stand, just under 20 inches wide, which was set up to hold standard 19 inch recording gear such as amps, compressors etc. This Star Tech device is rock solid with good heavy gauge steel. There are no instructions, but if you live on planet Earth you can assemble this stand in minutes. Also, they give you a bag with more…

Coil 6 worked everywhere in my house and I installed a little home server rack. The smallest rack a home automation company had to offer was 13U, which is way too big for what I wanted to fit. in it and where it should fit on the wall. I have a 24 port unmanaged switch, a small HP Home Media Server, a cable modem and a router in this rack and I have free space. It attaches securely to the wall. The bad thing is that it doesn't use traditional server screws, you have to use those, but they were…

The item arrived in perfect condition and upon looking at the details I realized that the measurements on the website were not accurate. Although the name now reflects this, the measurements in the product description are incorrect. I couldn't rack the Catalyst switch without room for a power connector.

Good sturdy stand that can be wall mounted. It uses 2 rack mounting screws instead of rack threaded holes, which most likely keeps the cost down, but the included screws are enough to mount multiple devices. The kit included enough screws for the shelf, power distribution, ethernet switch, firewall, and cable manager. If I had some 1U devices I would have to get more screws + clamps. I deduct 1 star for the wiring. There are holes in the rack along the top and bottom horizontal parts in front…

This is absolutely perfect for my needs. I prefer this over other small rack designs that tilt your components backwards. If I could attach a picture to this review I would show you my setup. I have a power strip, a UPS, a network switch, and a desktop-sized NAS. I even had enough space to put Nixie's cool watch on the shelf. Another great thing about this design is that you can put anything on it too. In my case, my printer sits on top. I also saved some space by placing my NAS on the bottom…
