Shelf VALUE 19" 400 mm U-Shape max load 25 kg 26.99.0434

VALUE Shelf 19" 400 mm U-Shape with a maximum static load of 25 kg is a rack shelf designed for standard 19-inch equipment racks. The shelf has a 400 mm usable depth and a U-shaped open construction that accommodates compact servers, switches and peripheral devices while allowing improved airflow and cable access. It provides a stable support platform for devices that are not rack-mountable or that require placement on a flat surface inside the rack, and is suitable for use in data closets, small server rooms and office network cabinets.

Advantages

The U-shaped design reduces material weight while maintaining rigidity, and its open front and rear allow better ventilation for devices placed on the shelf. The shelf is compatible with standard 19" mounting rails and supports a maximum static load of 25 kg, enabling reliable placement of lightweight servers, network appliances and UPS units. Installation is straightforward and helps keep the rack interior organised and accessible for maintenance.

Suitable for

• Placement of small servers and network switches that lack rack ears
• Mounting power distribution units, compact UPS modules or external storage devices
• Temporary or permanent placement of peripherals such as KVM extenders, media players or network appliances
• Use in office network cabinets, telecom closets and small server rooms

Key specifications

• Form factor: 19" rack shelf with U-shaped construction
• Usable depth: 400 mm
• Material and finish: steel construction with protective finish (surface treated for durability)
• Maximum static load capacity: 25 kg
• Mounting: compatible with standard 19" rack mounting rails and cage nut/bolt attachment
• Design features: open U-shape for airflow and cable access
• Weight: lightweight design for easy installation

How to use

Install the shelf in a standard 19" rack by aligning the mounting holes with the rack rails and securing it with appropriate rack bolts or cage nuts. Place devices centrally on the shelf to keep the load balanced and avoid exceeding the stated maximum static load of 25 kg. Route cables so they do not obstruct airflow through the open U-shaped section. For equipment that requires additional fastening, secure devices to the shelf using straps or brackets compatible with the shelf design.

Usage recommendations

Verify rack rail spacing and mounting hardware compatibility before installation. Distribute weight evenly and do not exceed the 25 kg maximum load. Allow clearance for ventilation and cable management; avoid placing high-heat devices directly adjacent to each other without adequate airflow.
