Re: Rack [7:38796]
I purchased one from musiciansfriends.com. It was only about $20 It was designed as a rack for music equipment but what fine to fit 7 2501 series routers Mark Odette II wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Also... Just a little more to add to the Music Rack scenario: I have found that the RackMount Ears that come with the PIX 515 Cisco 2600 do NOT line up with the alleged 19 scew points. The 2500s' ears are a perfect fit though. The problem with the other rack ears is that the screw slots are vertical, and therefore don't extend wide enough to hit both rack screw holes. The rack ears on the 2500 have horizontal screw slots, and therefore give variance from side to side of at least an eighth-of-an-inch. Doesn't that suck. :( Has anyone ever tried 2500 series rack ears/kits on a 2600?? If so, and they work, then the solution is at hand and as everyone else has mentioned, it depends on how much gear you plan to invest in to stick in the music rack. I was fortunate, and had my music rack given to me by a previous employer... I took it with the thought that even though I didn't have a use for it then, surely, I'd come up with one for it in the future:) That was 4 years ago, and in the last year, I started putting my Cisco gear in it. :) Only drawback is that it only has 30 inches vertically of usable space but who am I to complain... it got it for free! :) -Mark -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Barbee Jason Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 9:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Rack [7:38796] You have a couple options, the music racks already mentioned.

I would look around your city, and see if you can find a telecom vendor if you want to look for a telecom rack. The 4' racks were about twice the cost, they could sell the 7' cheaper because more people bought them. -Jason www.CCIEwannabe.com - Affordable remote Cisco lab access Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=39717t=38796 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Rack [7:38796]
I found a small 19 rack that is intended for audio gear at Radio Shack. It's about 3' tall and the top half is angled at about 30 degrees. Great for a few routers and switches. It was a discontinued item and they sold it off of the floor for $50. My wife wasn't going for the 7' model for a couple 2501's!

Re: Rack [7:38796]
I use music racks... they are designed for amps, and mixers etc... usually for DJs. They have a good counterbalance system, and are on rollers... They come in 2 standards... europe and american... the american standard is the same peg spacing as network equipment. and they look sharp They are under 100.00 usually and stand about 4.5 feet or so. - Original Message - From: Woods, Randall, SOLCM To: Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 1:25 PM Subject: RE: Rack [7:38796] The rack I would really like would cost me a couple of dinners and a night at the movies but I'll have to be content with what I have right now. :P Woody -Original Message- From: Patrick Ramsey [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 11:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Rack [7:38796] I didn't see any with shelves but this is what all my buddies say is good stuff! http://www.geocities.com/Yosemite/Geyser/9050/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 03/19/02 10:57AM Hello all, I am looking for a rack with shelves as well, any advice would be appreciated.
