These work exactly as they should, they feel nice and sturdy and are working well for lengthening my rack shelf enough to secure it at the back of my server rack.

Sometimes you need to move rack mound devices inside the rack, to give space for connectors. This is the right tool for that. I used it to mount a network switch in a rack with almost no space for connectors, and it fits the bill perfectly. Recommended.

I wasn't sure if this was going to fix the problem I was attempting to address or not, but it did and now I think I might want another set. So, for me...I have a rack mount power switch that accommodates 8 plugs, but in my use case, I tend to swap out what I am using it for a lot. So I thought it might make more sense for me to have access to the plugs on the front, and the switches facing backwards. And wow does this help. EASY access to those plugs, but these adapters are long enough that none of the plugs stick out and away from the front of the rack. I just put the plugs that pretty much always stay in in the middle and use the sides for the ones I change out a lot for easier access to the switches, and it is way less cumbersome. I will however see if I can find a switch on top version, as that would be perfect. The build quality is good, they fit great, and do what I need them to do better than I expected. Absolutely would get again.

This is great for extending the rails of a server that doesn't quite reach the back of the server. Especially those short-depth servers that might have an issue. Usually, I just use shelves for these, but I didn't have any available for a server I wanted racked but this was.It's sturdy and well-built and seems to be holding up fine.

These extenders work exactly as advertised. They are built with steel that is strong enough to hold a 1U UPS, and the included cage nuts were appreciated.I would note that this will not work very well on a rack that has a second row of screw holes/cage nut cutouts directly behind the front set. I had to bend the ears to get them to work, but that's not a detriment to the design... just a warning if your rack has that design.

I'm using this to extend a network switch farther back so the network cables do not push up against the glass front for my rack case. It's a nice set of extenders which can support the light weight of the switch. My only complaint is that both extenders were bent in exactly the same way and needed straightening. The hardware included works great and while I would like to have had 4 rack nuts and bolts per extender, 2 is sufficient.4/5 - Extender ears are bent, but it's nothing a pair of pliers can't fix. Provides all the space you need to run your cables for when you mount your network switch facing the front of the rack in a home lab.

Pros:√ The paint coating is of good quality, providing a smooth and professional finish.√ Comes with square cage nuts and screws included, adding convenience.√ The size is 1U and approximately 3 inches deep. For orientation purposes, refer to pictures that illustrate the left and right sides clearly.Cons:X The bracket itself is designed for medium to light-duty functionality. It is not suitable for supporting heavy loads, as it can be bent with minimal effort. Avoid twisting it or letting equipment hang during mounting, as this will exacerbate bending issues.X During installation, I noticed that the mounting ears can inadvertently bend while positioning the equipment.$$ Value:Priced at $5 per 1U ear, which includes two sets of square cage nuts and screws, this product offers decent value for light workloads. However, it is better suited for applications where durability and heavy support are not a priority.

These did not work for my old radio equipment rack. The rails have the right spacing, but are not the right shape to allow this to work. They would work okay for newer style network or server racks.
