The sections assemble without hardware, simplifying the installation process. The vented base ensures proper airflow, keeping your equipment cool and functioning optimally.

Designed for racks 21U and taller, this functional rack shelf mounts behind front rack rails using two standard rack screws with nuts on inside slots of each side. The side slots also feature a keyhole opening that can be used to mount a single "set screw" on each side before mounting the shelf. This allows the shelf to be supported and then pulled forward and secured using two screws per side.

Remember to mount the shelf and equipment before other rack accessories to provide ample room for maneuvering equipment. With the VWS-214 17.5 to 22" Variable Width Rack Shelf, you can efficiently organize your electronic equipment, ensuring a tidy and professional setup.
