Rackmount.IT RM-CR-T1 - Rack Kit for Cradlepoint E300 Series
Cradlepoint E3001.3U 19-inch5 front cablesAntenna knock-outs
The Rackmount.IT RM-CR-T1 is a 19-inch rack mount kit that lets you install a desktop Cradlepoint Cradlepoint E300 series router in a standard rack, with its connections brought to the front and knock-outs for the antenna pigtails. It is built for IT teams and MSPs who want the firewall to sit neatly in the comms cabinet instead of on a shelf or on top of other equipment.
Rackmount.IT designs each kit around one specific appliance family, so the tray, cut-outs and cable routing match the exact chassis. The kit is 1.3U high, 59 x 482 x 217 mm, finished in Black (RAL 9005), and Rackmount.IT quotes an assembly time of under three minutes. The Cradlepoint appliance itself is not included.
Before you order: This kit is made for the Cradlepoint E300 series only and is 1.3U high (59 mm), so it uses part of a second rack unit. Antenna pigtails for the cellular modem are not included.
What's in the Box
- 1 x Rackmount.IT rack mount tray for the E300
- 5 x network cables, 0.5 m
- 2 x M3 x 20 mm bolts
- 3 x zip ties
- Not included: the Cradlepoint appliance, its power supply, and rack screws or cage nuts for fixing the kit to your rack (use the ones supplied with your cabinet)
What It Means in Practice
- The router connections are brought to the front of the rack with the supplied 0.5 m cables.
- Knock-outs on the front let you route the cellular antennas to the front with antenna pigtails you add.
- The SFP ports can be used with your own fibre patch cables.
- The power supply cable is secured on the tray so it cannot be pulled loose.
What Will Not Work
- Other Cradlepoint routers (E100, E3000, IBR or AER series) - this kit fits the E300 only.
- Antenna pigtails are not included, so the antennas stay on the router unless you add them.
- Fibre patch cables for the SFP ports are not supplied.
- It is not a 1U kit - it is 1.3U high.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep the cellular antennas working inside a closed rack?
Yes, by routing them to the front through the knock-outs with antenna pigtails, which you need to add. Tell us your modem type and we can advise on the pigtails.
Does it fit the Cradlepoint E3000?
No. This kit is designed for the E300 series only.
How much rack height does it use?
The kit is 1.3U (59 mm) high, so plan for 2U and close the gap with a blanking panel if needed.
How deep does my rack or wall cabinet need to be?
The kit itself is 217 mm deep, so it also fits shallow wall-mount cabinets. Leave a little extra room behind it for the mains cable of the power supply.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
For a Cradlepoint E300 that has to live in a comms rack, the RM-CR-T1 keeps the ports on the front and gives the cellular antennas a way out of the cabinet. Order the antenna pigtails at the same time, because they make the difference to signal inside a metal rack. Our
rack accessories cover blanking panels for the gap above.
✓ Buy it if you run a Cradlepoint E300 and want it racked with front-facing connections.
✕ Skip it if you have a different Cradlepoint model or only exactly 1U free.
→ Also consider A 1U blanking panel to close the space above the kit.
