Chatsworth 11349-519 Equipment Tie-down Bracket

Overview

The Chatsworth 11349-519 is a 19-inch wide equipment tie-down bracket designed to secure sensitive or heavy rack-mount devices, preventing accidental movement or dislodging. This bracket is crucial in environments subject to vibration, such as industrial facilities or areas with heavy machinery, ensuring the stability of network infrastructure, servers, or surveillance recording equipment. Its clear finish provides a neutral aesthetic that blends into standard server rack installations.

Compatibility

This tie-down bracket is designed for use with standard 19-inch wide rack systems. It is compatible with virtually all 19-inch rack-mount equipment, including servers, network switches, patch panels, NVRs, and other IT or AV devices that utilize standard rack-mounting dimensions. The bracket secures to the front or rear rack rails, providing a stable anchor point.

Installation Notes

Installation requires standard rack mounting hardware (typically #10-32 or #12-24 screws and cage nuts, sold separately) to attach the bracket to the rack rails. The equipment is then secured to the bracket using appropriate fasteners, depending on the equipment's mounting points. Ensure the bracket is mounted to a structurally sound section of the rack. Torque specifications are not provided by the manufacturer, but standard rack mounting tightness is recommended.
