Compact Shelf for Non-Rackmount Equipment
The SR2270 creates a fixed platform inside a compatible equipment rack for devices that do not include their own rack ears. Its 270 mm depth is suited to many compact network, AV and control-system components.
Using a rack shelf helps keep small equipment organized with the rest of the installed system rather than placing it loose on the floor, on top of other components or outside the cabinet.

- 1.2 mm cold-rolled steel construction
- Black powder-coated finish provides a professional rack appearance
- Fixed design keeps supported equipment in a consistent position
- Suitable for compatible standard 19-inch racks and cabinets
- Useful for network, AV, security, control and home-lab installations
Why Choose a 270 mm-Deep Rack Shelf?
A 270 mm or 10.62-inch shelf provides more device depth than very shallow rack trays while taking less cabinet space than 350 mm or 420 mm shelves.
It can be a practical choice for compact routers, network boxes, streaming devices, small controllers and similar equipment. Measure the complete device, including rear connectors and cable bend space, before choosing the shelf.
Vented Surface for Equipment Airflow
Openings across the shelf allow air to move around compatible equipment instead of trapping heat against a fully solid platform.
Ventilation holes do not replace the equipment manufacturer’s cooling requirements. Leave the required space around air intakes, fans and exhaust openings, and do not place one heat-producing device directly against another.
Compatible Equipment Examples
| Equipment Type | Fit Check |
|---|---|
| Router or Modem | Confirm depth, antenna clearance and cable position |
| Small Network Device | Keep vents, status indicators and ports accessible |
| Media Player or Streamer | Allow space for HDMI, network and power connectors |
| Compact AV Component | Confirm equipment weight and ventilation needs |
| Security or Control Device | Check access to front controls and rear connections |
| Power Adapter or Accessory | Secure loose items and prevent cable strain |
