Open to recommendations for racks for the x450 g2 switch. Haven't found a good brand.
Solved! Go to Solution.

fdz,
Depending on what kind of rack you're looking for, there are a number of answers. We've had good luck with a myriad of racks so long as we make sure they're at least 22" or more in depth. there have been times that we've also installed the rack ears back a little bit when we have an existing rack that is not deep enough.
We've used TrippLite/Eaton racks, Hubbell, etc. In a pinch, we've had to use a StarTech vertical rack.
Knowing how many switches, and the type of installation would be helpful for additional recommendations...
Thanks,
Bill

Thank you everyone for your help. I ended up going with https://navepoint.com/navepoint-6u-wall-mount-open-frame-rack-24-81-depth-threaded/. Unfortunately I did not have enough room for a vertical rack.

Thank you @Bill_Handler I was looking for a either a 4U or 6U wall mount rack, I've just been having some trouble since everything standard is 19" in depth.

fdz,
‘if you have the room, a vertical rack may be a better solution. It will have the switch hang down the wall, but will stick out from the wall less. Here is an example: https://tripplite.eaton.com/smartrack-6u-vertical-wall-mount-rack-bracket~SRWALLBRKT6U
that is an open bracket. They also have enclosed cabinets with the same orientation.
Thanks,
Bill
