I like to use a wall mounted rack cabinet and then the wires are contacted behind your rack mounted equipment or placed on rack mounted trays and then you can close the door and it looks very professional. Here is an example:
​
Everyone is talking about how dumb and expensive this is... but does anyone have any real experience installing racks in a business environment? Good racks are expensive and there's a reason for that. When racks are bad they're BAD. Sharp corners, badly tapped holes, terrible assembly instructions, low quality casters, bent metal, and edges that don't line up... just to name a few.
Ubiquiti knows that if they release a high quality product at a price point that matches people will buy it. If you want to compare this to a similar setup from Tripp-Lite (which everyone is doing) it would be more expensive. Don't get me wrong, I love Tripp-Lite racks, but even Tripp-Lite doesn't have the build quality of Ubiquiti in their cheaper racks.
Tripp-Lite 6U Rack (Only 20.5" deep, non adjustable) - 202.99
Tripp-Lite Casters - $76.19
Tripp-Lite PDU - $68.87
Ubiquiti Total - $249.00
Tripp-Lite Total - $348.05
So tell me again why this rack is a bad deal?
