Good comments so far. I didn't see this one though:
It's admittedly far from ideal in some ways, but a great way to deal with this sort of situation can be to get a pair of two-post open frame relay racks; most of them bolt together and can be put just about anywhere. Many times we forget that these can be used as the front and back of a single rack. Remember to tie them together if you go that route, attachment to a wall or up top highly recommended as well.
I was about to suggest that. Chatsworth actually makes hardware just for this. http://www.chatsworth.com/uploadedFiles/Files/50110_CUT.pdf We have a number of these which we've used to convert left over 2-post relay racks into sturdy 4-post racks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis, MCP :) | I route Senior Network Engineer | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
