Hi Valerie,

I haven't looked recently but I don't know if all of those network devices are rack-mountable.  Also it would be possible for us to replace them all with a single item, my point being there is no need for a "rack", because a simple shelf would work just as well!

I should also add that it will be mounted close to a design on the top mural painted section of the wall behind the beam so I wouldn't want the rack to interfere with the art if it can be avoided. Nothing bigger than 12U and 6-9U is probably the sweet spot. 

I only saw two on Craigslist that could be considered although they are pretty far away so not sure that they are worth the drive:

• https://sacramento.craigslist.org/sys/d/sacramento-heavy-duty-wall-mount/7866613599.html 

Or on Facebook marketplace if it comes with the racks or cyber power its a plus:

Hello Sudoroom members 

CALLI would like to procure an open network rack for the second floor of the building in the next week to install and move the switches from the current location. If you know anyone that is selling a used 6U open rack cheaper then the one below please let me know ASAP. The rack needs to support the existing 24 & 8 port switches as well as an additional 5 port switch that will be installed when the access control is upgraded. Shelves would be a huge plus. Open to suggestions but the goal is to get this solidified and ordered by Thursday so that I can arrive in time for install next week.

Standard price for 6U mounting rack:
