NavePoint 10-inch 9U glass: extra U and a window, still not 19-inch

SKU 00406851 stacks the 6U glass trap on the 9U trap. Tempered glass door, still 10-inch-wide rails, still 7 in max mount. Maker store $195.99 this pass — about $8 less than the perforated 9U. Glass is not a premium. It is worse air for less money. A 19-inch switch still will not hang. If the wall takes 19-inch, the buy is the StarTech 12U.

Outside: 12.3 × 19 × 11.8 in. Reversible glass, lock, two shelves (44 lb each), one 1U blank, 110.23 lb class, pre-assembled. Hardware: 12× M6 screws, washers, cage nuts, two keys. Newegg 2BA-001H-00230. Amazon B0BNLZRZ2Q — print the live tag. About $34 more than the $161.99 perforated 6U start this pass. The extra three U and the window do not change the rail width.

If you already measured 10-inch gear and three more U, the perforated 00406852 is the 9U to buy. Glass 9U is the same job with a worse door. The 6U glass at $161.99 is the same dollar as the mesh start — skip that one too unless you want to look at LEDs.

Skip

Skip 9U glass because the photo looks like a show closet. Skip paying for height and a window when the perforated 9U is the air-first 9U. Skip any 19-inch glass wall box sold next to this one. If the wall takes 19-inch, stop shopping 10-inch cabinets. We have not sat with 00406851.
