LevitonData Plastic Bracket, 47612-DBK

Leviton is out of its damned mind. First of al let me say like all Leviton products the quality is top notch. It does its job and it does its job well. And I don't mind paying a little more for quality products. But also like all leviton products their pride is a little too bloated and their 300+% price markup shows it.I needed 3 of these brackets for my SMC, Router, Cable Modem & A Harddrive which connects to my router for uninterrupted downloads. No way I was gonna pay nearly $90 for such a small amount of plastic. So I bought 1 (at the lowest price i could find. ($26) took it to Office Depot, had them 3D scan it (5$) and 3D print me 2 copies ($7.50 each) made of the same material of the original (ABS plastic). not counting the 3D scanning the 2 3D Prints cost me 15.00 + tax (16.50 at 10% tax) which is more than 10 dollars less than I paid for a single one of these.I'll be picking up my copies tomorrow and based on the quality of 3D prints I've had done from Office Depot in the past i don't expect any degradation of quality from the original.Didn't have any problems with the push pins like a couple of reviews I've read. Though they are a bit loose in their holes, making the mounted devices less stationary than I'd like, but since I won't be fumbling around in my SMC too often I suppose that's not really an issue.

Yes, it's overpriced, but if you want a bracket to mount your switch neatly in your Leviton panel, this is the only way to go.My biggest concern was how to attach this to the switch. None of the slots are threaded, and I was worried about being able to secure a nut on the bottom side of the bracket (to attach to a screw inside of my switch) without it spinning. I don't know if I just got lucky, but I had a ton of small machine screws and nuts, just big enough for the slots in my switch. Maybe the head of the screw was tall enough to provide enough friction to keep the screw from slipping as I tightened the nut from the underside. Surprisingly it worked, so I didn't have to resort to zip ties or Velcro wrap.Definitely recommend if you want a clean installation. If you plan to use zip ties or Velcro wrap, don't bother wasting your money.

The brackets snap in nicely and let you wall mount your items while controlling wiring beneath the brackets. Seems more than strong enough for wall mounting routers, switches, and modems.Negatives: this is very expensive for what is a large piece of plastic and 4 plastic push pins. Also, none of the holes lined up for me in any of my equipment so I had to measure and drill. For that a blank bracket would be better than one with pre cut slots and holes as they can really limit your options.They also make a metal shelf with Velcro straps that may accomplish the same thing with less effort, at least for smaller equipment.

Had to buy too many times. The price is off the charts rediculous! Will be getting a 3D printer to solve this problem. Or just don't buy Leviton media cabinets in the first place. Learned my lesson!

Product is as described. However, it doesn't come with any screws to mount your product to it. Just keep this un mind when ordering.

Works as expected. Seriously overpriced given the few cents of material but you don't really have other options (that I could find) for similar function if you have a Leviton panel. The only other big negative is really due to the panel design as Leviton chose not to have evenly spaced grid of holes (likely so they could sell proprietary products at high markups like this) so it only fits on certain rows. You have to carefully drill new holes if you need it in a position that doesn't work with the existing rows.

I had high hopes for the Leviton Structured Media Panel to get all my cables under control. This bracket was supposed to make it easy to mount all of my modems, routers, switches, etc. without a fuss. When installing the first bracket I noticed the push pins were floppy. I had hoped that the pins get tighter as I pushed them in and then came the fun part:The first pin broke with even light pressure pushing it though. It was of course still floppy. I installed the others and found that they need to be pulled on a little before pushing them in otherwise they are impossible to push though the metal holes in the Media Panel.Once they were all I was very discouraged: the pins were still floppy and didn't hold the bracket tight. I don't know if this is a feature or what, so I tried to hammer one further without success. Maybe I will try to offset the bracket a bit with washers to make it tight.After pulling it in and out a few times to make sure I wasn't crazy I've come to the conclusion that it is easier to remove than it is to install. Oh and the pins can separate and you could lose both down though your drywall. Luckily my drywall isn't up yet.I will not be buying one of these again, and look for a custom bracket solution to go with the nice Media Panel.

I can’t believe I spent this much on a piece of plastic, but it fits, and I needed another one. Ugh, I hate spending this much on plastic bits.

I am disappointed for I paid for it’s made. I ended up returning it.
