That posting got screwed up somehow.

Things have just been going like that for me lately. Sad

Heres a picture of what I'm talking about:

I am almost positive that they are the industry standard 19" rack width. But I will measure to make sure.

I dont know why they would make something like that in any other size?

Im pretty sure I have WAAAAYYYY more of these modules then racks. (But Im probably going to get more racks soon)

But even without the actual racks (cages) you could easily manufacture a rack that they would mount in, it just probably wouldn't have the sliding-rails or connectors in the back. Unless of course your really cleaver in the workshop and can manufacture something like that.

The cages Ive got are just sheet metal boxes really, with rack-ears and the bars across the back that hold the connectors, and little "rails" that the modules slide into.
