StarTech.com RK419WALLV — 4U Vertical Wall-Mount Bracket for 19-inch Network Gear
4U · 19-inch56.7 kg capacityVertical wall mountFully assembled
The StarTech.com RK419WALLV is a 4U, 19-inch vertical wall-mount rack bracket with a 56.7 kg load rating, built for small offices, shops and comms corners that need to get a switch, patch panel or small appliance off the floor without a full rack cabinet.
It is an open 2-post steel frame that screws to the wall and holds 19-inch equipment in a vertical orientation, so the gear sits close to the wall and takes very little room. The rails are L-shaped with square holes for cage nuts, compliant with EIA/ECA-310-E, and the bracket arrives fully assembled — you only need to fix it to the wall and mount your equipment.
Before you order: StarTech does not publish a maximum equipment depth for this bracket. Heavy or deep devices (servers, UPS units) are not what it is for — send us the model and we will check the depth and weight before you order.
What's in the Box
- 1 × vertical wall-mount rack bracket (fully assembled)
- 16 × M5 cage nuts
- 16 × M5 screws
- 6 × wood screws
- 1 × instruction manual
What It Means in Practice
- 4U of space holds, for example, a 1U switch, a 1U patch panel and a 1U cable manager with room to spare.
- Vertical mounting keeps the equipment flat against the wall, so it does not project into the room like a horizontal wall bracket.
- The included wood screws are for timber or stud walls; for concrete or brick use proper wall plugs and anchors rated for the load.
- Open frame means no dust or physical protection — fine in a locked comms room, less so in a public area.
What Will Not Work
- 23-inch telecom equipment or 10-inch mini-rack gear — the rails are 19-inch.
- Servers, UPS units or anything needing rear support rails — this is a 2-post open bracket.
- Round-hole or threaded-hole mounting — the rails are square-hole for M5 cage nuts.
- Locking or enclosing the equipment — there is no door or side panel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which way does the equipment face?
The bracket holds 19-inch equipment vertically against the wall. Plan cable entry so patch cords can reach the ports without tight bends.
Can I fix it to plasterboard?
Only with fixings rated for the full load. The supplied wood screws are for studs or timber; for plasterboard, brick or concrete use suitable anchors.
Is 4U enough for my setup?
Count the rack units of every device, plus any cable manager. If you are close to 4U, look at the 5U RK519WALLV instead.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
A vertical wall bracket is the tidiest way to mount one or two
network switches and a patch panel in a small office without buying a cabinet. Match the wall fixings to the wall, not to the screws in the box.
✓ Buy it if you need 4U of open 19-inch space on a wall for light network equipment.
✕ Skip it if you need a lockable enclosure or you are mounting deep, heavy equipment.
→ Also consider the StarTech.com RK519WALLV for 5U and 90 kg, or a wall-mount rack cabinet if the gear must be enclosed.
