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://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/sop/d/saratoga-kenuco-black-6u-wall-mount/… - https://sacramento.craigslist.org/sys/d/sacramento-heavy-duty-wall-mount/78… <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: - https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1407985223758847/?mibextid=wwXIfr On Mon, Aug 4, 2025 at 4:10 PM Valerie Jameson via sudo-discuss < sudo-discuss(a)sudoroom.org> wrote:

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: https://www.amazon.com/JINGCHENGMEI-Networking-Equipments-Adjustable-6UVent… Take care, -- *Valerie Jameson* (she/ella) Stewardship (Property) Manager - 4799 Shattuck Avenue *Collective Action & Land Liberation Institute (CALLI) * CALLI Website <https://www.thecalli.org/> East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/ebprec> | X <https://www.x.com/ebprec> | Instagram <https://www.instagram.com/eb.prec> | YouTube <https://www.youtube.com/ebprec> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/company/ebprec> _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list -- sudo-discuss(a)sudoroom.org To unsubscribe send an email to sudo-discuss-leave(a)sudoroom.org More options at https://sudoroom.org/lists/postorius/lists/sudo-discuss.sudoroom.org/

I would defer to others since that would change the project. The 8 switch is completely filled up and if it was on the 24 it would leave little room for the future. No mater what there will be an additional 5 port switch that will live there too which is why I figured it was appropriate to get some kind of rack. I assume it needs shelves because of the devices that are currently on the beam. Those items cannot stay mounted on the beam as they currently are. This is the best value I could find: https://www.amazon.com/Arejonner-Open-Frame-Network-Rack/dp/B0DSVNDMGR/ref=… <https://www.amazon.com/Arejonner-Open-Frame-Network-Rack/dp/B0DSVNDMGR/ref=sr_1_27?crid=C6NBZ9HKFQ21&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.E5kkqK_JsXkOO3aKhkhw3cW8HkrDYK86qBruEEcG3sZdATV2y7qwEcPGtFi5IXYTvE6ucL9rx98DXuOcB43-f3GFSSO2jhJoDqi0Usfm2Lmd5bta05AehX7xbLpnuKVEeTNpJRBLBf58JH_wCT5R9XDPV6vLnToY1aNszI3LQp_V9F54N4WZzxt33fpA5PQIBLWo5X8vzslGJCphz4gQcqBs6niHUbIPQsCH8w8ZR3bBzL7EoUOKWKtUPYG3XVE9Xymfx8JcKm1xiSK1ucZF1O_-sY-lhMQQ82dke5_dfsI.4bumZDkLIIy1wKjRBfhlAOUhQGbuvnpWsxGt6OEdWK8&dib_tag=se&keywords=9U+open+frame+network+rack%2C+with+2+pcs+1u+rack+shelves&qid=1754498049&s=electronics&sprefix=9u+open+frame+network+rack%2C+with+2+pcs+1u+rack+shelves%2Celectronics%2C137&sr=1-27> Jake if you have an alternative shelf/shelves that you think would work better for mounting behind the beam on the dark blue mountain portion of the wall please share it in the next two days. Otherwise I will likely purchase the device above unless one of the second hand alternatives pans out.

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!
