Jingchengmei 6U Wall Mount Open Frame Rack - Adjustable 13-18in Depth

Our review of the Jingchengmei 6U wall mount open frame rack finds it ideal for small server rooms, network closets, and AV installs where space and airflow matter. The single biggest reason to buy is its adjustable depth from 13in to 18in, which lets it accommodate slightly deeper 19in equipment than many fixed shallow racks. Built from cold rolled steel with a powder coat finish and a 110 lb capacity, this compact 6U frame balances strength and accessibility for IT technicians and installers who need an open design for cable routing and cooling.

Key Features

• Adjustable Depth: The 13in to 18in depth range allows fitting deeper switches and patch panels without forcing a larger cabinet purchase.
• 19in Compatibility: EIA/ECA-310 compatibility supports standard rack equipment such as network switches, patch panels and small shelves for tidy installs.
• Sturdy Construction: Cold rolled steel with a powder coating provides a durable frame that holds up to 110 lb for reliable long term mounting.
• Easy Mounting Hardware: The package includes 24 sets of M6 screws and cage nuts plus assembly and mounting screws to simplify installation.
• Open Frame Access: The open design improves access for cable management and maintenance while keeping unobstructed airflow around equipment.
• Wall Mount Fit: Rear mounting holes are spaced 15.94in center to center to match common wall mounting layouts for secure attachment.

Who It's For

The rack is aimed at small businesses, home labs, and AV integrators who need a compact, wall-mounted solution for standard 19in network and IT equipment. Its adjustable depth makes it a good option when equipment depth varies slightly, avoiding the need to upsize to a larger cabinet.

Those who require dust-sealed enclosures, lockable doors, heavy power distribution, or racks for equipment over 110 lb should look at full enclosures or larger welded cabinets instead of this open frame unit. The open design prioritizes access and cooling rather than physical security or dust protection.
