UCTRONICS Front Removable 1U Rack Mount for Raspberry Pi, with 4 Mounting Brackets for Raspberry Pi 5, 4B, 3B+/3B, and Other B Models

Overall great product. I'm writing the review I needed to see before purchasing this. Fits non-HAT pis great. I got this product knowing that the GeeekPi P33 M.2 NVME M-Key PoE+ Hat rpi5 I'm have was going be close fit. There are multiple fit issues: that header pins, a capacitor, and what I assume is the transformer on the GeeekPi HAT are too tall to clear the top of the rack mount holder. They will also extend slightly above the 1U height. The screw down retaining clip of the NVMe and a capacitor both stick out too far to the front preventing the pi from screwing down into the holder. I already had all the parts and decided to "make it fit." See the attached photos. I still have the problem of it sticking up above the 1U space allocated for the rack mount, but I'm just going to have to get creative with it's placement in the rack where it has some headroom. Learn from my hubris. Don't try this with this brand of NVME/PoE HAT. But if you try it anyway, see photos on how to make it work.

This is a quality product! It is made out of a thick sheet of steel, so there is no flexing or bowing. The parts are accurately cut and bent, there is no excess slack or wobble. Everything fits together nicely. And lastly, the paint, or power coat, is done nicely, a nice thick coat with no scratches, or defects. The people who made this took pride in their product. This isn't just some cheaply made sheet metal thing. This is a well manufactured and engineered product.

The screw mounts for the pi boards will work great on a bare board. However with full sized hats - like the official POE hat - you’ll need to get “stackable” standoffs to go into the tray mount holes. The trays have raised, threaded mount points that are closed off from underneath (screw must come from the top). You could also get uctronics poe hats that are not full size and don’t need standoffs for a few dollars more. Otherwise this is a well made pi mount and looks great on your rack setup.

I like this product so much, I bought three. The trays have a single large hole, so they accept Raspberry Pi 3 and 4 ... probably the original and 2 as well, but I haven’t tried. They’re also slide into the 1U frame from the front and secure with thumb screws. Super nice. I even modified one to hold a DFRobot Compute Module 4 Router by adding two additional 9mm standoffs (since the router is shorter). Because the UCtronics standoffs are RPi width (1mm wider than the router), I could only use screws on one side to secure the board, but it’s solid and not going anywhere.

I recently outgrew a GeeekPi 6-Layers Raspberry Pi Cluster Case which served me well for a few years. After doing a little research I chose this design for its accessibility and modularity. It is very easy to mount your pi boards and connect your front-facing USB and ethernet cables; a little tedious connecting power and micro-hdmi but it's possible. At the same time I have been outfitting some new Pi 5s with Samsung NVMe 980s using the base from Pimoroni (also well designed and released before the official Raspberry NVMe base). Unfortunately with the Pimoroni mounted below the raspberry, the ethernet and top 2 USBs are no longer accessible. Because I hate waste, I am probably going to dremel out a bit of the harness, but thought this might help people and maybe UCTRONICS can design a model that will work with the NVMe bases. Update: here's a picture showing where I dremeled out a small portion of the housing face to gain access to the front ethernet port. Bottom row has my Pi 5s with NVMe base and top row has Pi 4s without.

I only have two out of the four mounted so far, but this thing is great for mounting RaspberryPi computers. I also bought the UCTRONICS Micro SD to Micro SD Card Male to Female Flexible Extender to complete the package. Have not had any issues. If you need to rack mount your RaspberryPi this it it.

If you are after a simple, no frills 19" rack to mount your Raspberry Pi's this is it. Each Pi is mounted on a frame for individual removal and insertion. The rack is not enclosed at the back so open to dust etc (no problem for me). Solid build quality too. I could complain about the price but let's face it, a cheap Pi rack is a thing of pure fiction.

It does what it says, however for the size that it is and the build quality with it sagging slightly with 4 raspberry pi installed in the rack leaves more to be desired. The screenprinting is also realatively poor quality and the oils from my hands and just minimally touching it while installing has smeared the text already. The spring loaded thumb screws do work as intended and I have removed a pi or two a number of times to rearange them and I have not had issues with any of the treads. I would have been more fine with the price if the metal would have been thicker and the screen printing better as at least the quality would have justified the price.

Il case è piuttosto solido e ben costruito, considerando il prezzo. Il vantaggio rispetto ad altre soluzioni è la flessibilità e compatibilità con tutti i raspberry tipo B. Alcuni case sono più completi, ma ad esempio sono compatibili solo con RPi4. Altro punto di forza è rappresentato dagli slot rimovibili, che permettono di sostituire o lavorare su un singolo dispositivo.

Eine ausgezeichnete Ergänzung für mein Rack um diverse Raspberry Pi 3 und 4 platzsparend und geordnet unterzubringen. Es sieht einfach professioneller aus, wenn alles ordentlich verstaut ist.

I recently purchased the 1U rack mount for my Raspberry Pi, and while I appreciate the excellent build quality, I can’t help but feel it’s a bit on the expensive side. The materials are solid, and it fits my Raspberry Pi perfectly, providing a clean and organized look in my rack setup. The installation was straightforward, and the design allows for proper ventilation, which is crucial for keeping the Raspberry Pi cool during operation. It also has enough space for additional accessories, making it versatile for various projects. However, considering the price, I expected a few more features or inclusions, like extra mounting hardware or cable management options. While it does the job well, I think it could offer better value for the cost. Overall, if you’re looking for a high-quality rack mount and don’t mind spending a bit more, this is a solid choice. Just be prepared for the higher price tag!

Da ich keine Eile hatte, störte mich die Lieferzeit von 14 Tagen nicht. Es waren alle Schrauben dabei um meine raspberry 3 und 4 einzubauen. Ich hatte mir noch die SD-Karten-flexible Adapter. Speziell für Raspberry Pi 4B/3B/3B+ bestellt, und die gleichzeitig mit eingebaut. Die Qualität von der Rackhalterung ist super.
