Hello all,

I have a 1RU sliding shelf for a 19" rack in very new condition (see photo). It has front and rear mounts but can be mounted on the front only if you're putting something light on it.

$ plus freight

hi mate
is this really 1RU? lots of the "heavy duty" ones are over 1ru in height, and dont truly fit in 1 space

if this is 1ru
then yes - consider it sold!

Hi Gareth,

It is called a 1RU sliding shelf - the mounting points take up 1RU (i.e. 3 holes high in the punched rack).

However, it is slightly higher than 1RU - the slider rails extend about 1mm lower than the bottom of the tray. You can squeeze it in but it is better to have 1/3 of an RU below the rack to avoid scraping on a device below.

Also (see the picture) it has rail mounts front and back - ideally it would be installed in a comms rack with front and rear mounting, but I had it in a regular rack and it was ok for lightweight devices (drives, keyboard, etc).

thanks ian
thats what i expected..
not going to exactly do what i want unfortunately (i need something for a mobile rack, and there is def only 1RU avail.

if no one else bites... i might give it a shot
but have a feeling i know the outcome - so over to anyone else who is certain it will work for them first

Thanks Gareth,
I could definitely use it.
PM sent Ian.

All the best
Richard
