Little Pricey, But Works Very Well
It's a pretty simple setup: two screws secure each Raspberry Pi, the USB and network ports are exposed from the front, and each RPi slot has two "holes" where you can mount a keystone jack. I added 4 HDMI and 4 networking keystone jacks to the front to help with accessing it once it's installed in a rack. Everything fits very well, and haven't had any real issues yet. It does what it says on the tin.It does _not_, however, come with any blanks, nor does it come with anything other than the 1U mount and eight (8) screws to secure the Pi's.Update: A few modifications for power switches, status LEDs, and a bunch of drilling (and soldering). No issues installing it into the networking rack, and the RPis are suprisingly secure with just the two screws even with all the cables hanging off of it. Definitely worth the price, and with a bit of work can turn into something even more crazy.

Love this rack
This rack mount is solid enough and works well. The two open spaces on the sides of each pi are slightly bigger than regular keystone openings but nevertheless fit keystone inserts fine. I use one for HDMI and the other for power switch.For the power switch, I just cut open the USB cable, soldered a DIYhz latching push button (B07DWS195R) in the power line (I believe it's the red wire), and mounted the push button on a 0.3-inch keystone feed-through insert. This way I don't have to reach to the back of the rack to unplug the USB cable if I needed to restart the pi.I also added the Carago Aluminum Metal Armor case (B087CLDKV1) over each pi for heat dissipation. The screws that came with the rack were a bit short for this purpose, but I was able to find the right screws from Micro Center.

Simple and cost effective RPi rackmount
This RPi rackmount device is perfect! Material is lightweight and assembly and mounting is easy. Coupled with the ‘snap-Off’ Blank Cover Set of 4 pcs. for Raspberry Pi Rack Mount 1-4 (8719992970322), it makes for a great looking rack mounting solution for RPi's.There are only two things I would say about this product that in no way affects my rating:1 - This product should be offered as a combo deal with the rackmount and the blank cover at a competitive price.2 - There should be some sort of cable management feature either built into the device or as an add-on. If this is to succeed in the professional circles where cable management really matters, a cable management feature needs to be offered.Other than my two observations, this product is an outstanding addition to my server rack!

Great value!
I bought this for price and because I knew I wanted to try clustering, so I'll have multiple pi's. This fit perfectly in my rack, and I've been able to add POE hats to my pi's with ease. It's sturdy and looks great - I would recommend this to any tech-enthusiast or professional

Great product prefect for giving your raspberry pi’s that professional look.
I’ve been looking for a racks to mount my raspberry pi for a long time. All my network gear is rack mounted and I need something that looked professional to house the raspberry pi. Found these and I ordered two. The are sold and look professional mounted in the rack. It was easy to install the raspberry pi’s. When I purchased the mounts the keystones where not available on Amazon so I had to improvise. Once the keystones and blanks are available I will be ordering them to complete the installation.

Solid rack, good price but the keystone holes are useless
The rack is sturdy and clean looking and mounts my Rasberry Pis fine. The keystone holes, however, do not accommodate any of the keystones I had on hand. I bought the official model numbers listed with HDMI pigtails from the item description. Not being in stock on here, I had to order them from a different supplier. Although they were the correct part number, they are the wrong size and look awkward and easily fall out with any amount of pressure. While this might work in a server room, this is unsuitable for my application. Had the keystones been useful, this would have been a five star product. In it's current state, I will either need to modify this rack mount, or obtain a separate patch bay. For your reference, I am using Rasberry Pi 3s with regular sized HDMIs - this may be fine with a Rasberry Pi 4 but given the size of the keystone holes it is probably unlikely. If the manufacturer can provide keystones that work and do not easily fall out, I would gladly buy the inserts and revise this review to 5 stars.

Cool idea
This fit perfectly in a 19” rack. I have two raspberry pi’s mounted inside it. I wish I would have found this a long time ago. I wouldn’t have bought cases for them.This is a very convenient way to have several Pi’s in a single place. You do need angled HDMI adapters to make the best use of these. That isn’t a deal breaker but something to be aware of.

This rack is great!
This mount is exactly what I was looking for. It is a bit spendy but is the best solution I've found for mounting raspberry pi's in a rack. The mount is solid. lightweight and a model 4 fits in just fine.

The best of a small bunch
This is quite a unique item. I can imagine and guess that the demand for these is a specific and small target audience.Who has 4 pi's who has a rack, and who wants to spend money mounting them? (Well, me....)The rack is too big for a standard rack, by about 15mm. I had to file the edges off to make it fit.It is well made in terms of it being strong. It does NOT come with blanking plates so they are additional cost.The Pis mount well, and using rising screws (purchased separately) you can add the POE hat or other devices on topThere's lots of room in-between for cables.Customer service denied there was a sizing issue and were very unhelpful.I have this product, it took some manual modification to fit to a standard rack, but it works well.It is 70+ gbp for a single piece of metal. Ask yourself the serious question, do you really need to rack mount your Pi ?

Weder Schrauben noch Blenden für diese überteuerten Preis
Bei diesem stolzen Preis sind weder Käfigmuttern, noch Schrauben und nichtmal Blenden dabei.Ich denke nicht das jemand standardmäßig 4 raspberries verwendet und somit wären die Blenden angenehm.
