Switch rack mounting brackets

[Oops_my_bad]

Stupid question, but does anyone know where I can get hold of the mounting brackets for switches? As we've had a few gone missing over the years.I've tried the manufacturers and ebay, also they aren't standard mountings across manufacturers

You'd have to either speak to the manufacturer of that particular device, or speak to a fabrication company to make some for you.

I think i have some cisco ones if they are handy?

Thanks chaps

 

Zak - the screw holes are different on the Cisco ones and I'm using netgears, thanks anyway

 

I might ask the D+T chaps to see if they can knock any up, then again they can't even cut wood straight so...

How about sitting them in the cabinet on some vented shelves:

Ah well never mind. I will keep my eyes open though.

Try these FSMS400 for £17.60 from Comms Express. http://www.comms-express.com/pd1940017343.htm?defaultVariants=search0_EQ_Grey_AND_{EOL}&categoryId=130

 

They do 1/2/3U varieties with different depths.

I once had some knocked up by the CDT department. Worked a treat.

 

I have a stock of old ones from ditched switches but only one set of Netgear ones and I'd like to keep hold of those just in case I end up in the same situation as you .

If you get stuck just use a 1U shelf.
