How to Install SolidRack 8U Wall Mount Network Rack

• Choose a sturdy wall location with solid framing (studs) capable of supporting mounted equipment and the rack’s weight. Plan access to power outlets and network connections to minimize cable strain.
• Assemble the wall-mount rack per the included instructions, aligning the 19" rack rails and ensuring the bracket holes line up with wall studs for secure mounting.
• Attach the wall-mount brackets to the wall using appropriate hardware for your wall type. Securely fasten screws or anchors to studs to support the combined weight of the rack and equipment.
• Mount the 19" rack rails in the desired position on the rack frame. Ensure rails are level to facilitate easy equipment installation and slide-in mounting of devices.
• Install equipment starting with heavier items first, using standard 19" rack-mount ears and screws. Leave space for airflow and future expansion, and route cables along the built-in management paths or channels to maintain a tidy, accessible setup.
• Perform a final check for stability, verify that all devices are securely fastened, and test connectivity and airflow. Tidy cables with zip ties or Velcro straps, ensuring they do not impede venting or panel access.
