What is a sliding rackmount shelf ?

A sliding rackmount shelf is a standard 1U rackmount shelf attached to a pair of ball bearing sliding rail. The sliding shelf can be either fully retracted or fully extended outward. When it is fully retracted, its front panel is fully flush against the cabinet. You can pull the shelf out just like a drawer unit. Some of the sliding rail can only extend 75% of its body length, some can fully extend out of the cabinet. The length of extension depends on the load on the shelf. Sliding shelf offers easy access to equipment stored in the cabinet. It is especially useful if you have very tight space in the cabinet to work with. The fully extended sliding shelf brings the equipment out in to the open effortlessly.

What makes RSF1040K2 different from other rack shelf?

Safety is the most important part of our design for our RSF1040K2. Unlike other rack shelf manufactures, we include a cable strap anchor system to prevent your bulky equipment from sliding out due to vibration in either fully retracted or fully extended position. Up to 6 cable strap anchors can be installed from front to back of the rack shelf. These anchors ensures your safety as well as to protect your equipment from unnecessary damages.

In addition to our anchor system, our RSF1040K2 can be lock in place using thumb screws located at both side of the front panel when it is fully retracted. This prevents our shelf from accidentally sliding out in any kind of situation.

When our RSF1040K2 is fully extended, it also has a safety feature to lock itself in place. In our sliding rail system, we use a metal clip that clicks when it is in locked position. Most of the low cost sliding shelf manufactures use a plastic clip instead to lower cost. We believe that using a metal clip is a better choice to ensure our sliding rail stops when it is fully extended.

The 2nd unique feature is the wire access ports located at rear top side of the shelf. RSF1040K2 offers 2 wire access ports for your power cable, USB Cable, Network Cable or another type of cables. The cable goes under the rack shelf and exit at the wire access ports at the rear. This feature helps you to better organize your data cable and shelf space.

Another unique feature is the 2nd panel in the RSF1040K2 can be converted into a storage tray. Just by reversing the 2nd panel, you get a storage tray at no additional cost.
