Product Information

Full details

This Adastra Shallow Rack Wall Cabinet (12U) is designed for users needing to house 19" rack-mountable equipment in spaces where a full-sized rack is not feasible. Its key benefit is providing secure, organized storage for networking gear, AV equipment, or other electronics in a compact, wall-mountable form factor. A caveat to consider is its light-duty application suitability and limited mounting depth. The cabinet features a powder-coated steel construction, a lockable toughened glass front door, adjustable front and rear rack rails, and convenient cable entry points.

How do I clean the glass door?

Troubleshooting

Cabinet is unstable after mounting

Ensure the cabinet is securely fastened to the wall using appropriate wall anchors and screws. Verify the wall itself is structurally sound to support the load.

Equipment does not fit on rails

Confirm that the equipment is standard 19" rack-mountable. Check if the rails are positioned correctly for the equipment's height (U-spacing).

Door does not lock properly

Ensure the door is fully closed and aligned. Check the lock mechanism for any obstructions or damage. Contact the manufacturer if the lock is faulty.

Limited space for cabling

Utilize the top and bottom knock-out apertures effectively. Consider using right-angle connectors or low-profile cables where possible.
