Description:

Rack Adapter Set — 23″ to 19″ — 2U

The 23-inch to 19-inch rack adapter set (2U) allows standard 19-inch rack mount equipment to be installed into legacy 23-inch racks and cabinets. These rack conversion brackets are commonly used in telecom facilities, central offices, broadcast racks, and industrial equipment enclosures where 23″ racks remain in service.

Manufactured in the USA from premium 16-gauge steel, these rack adapters are finished in a durable satin black powder coat to provide long-term durability in data center, telecom, and networking environments.

10-32 PEM nuts are inserted on one side of the adapters with EIA-spaced mounting slots. The PEM-nut to slot spacing dimension is 2.75″, ensuring proper alignment when adapting 23-inch rack spacing to standard 19-inch equipment.

Why These Fail
  • Legacy telecom racks often use 23-inch mounting rails incompatible with modern 19″ equipment.
  • Improvised mounting solutions can cause equipment misalignment or rack stress.
  • Thin adapters may bend under the weight of servers, switches, or UPS hardware.
  • Incorrect hole spacing prevents proper EIA rack mounting alignment.
Our Solution
  • Heavy-duty 16-gauge steel — supports network, telecom, and server hardware.
  • Precision EIA spacing — proper alignment for 19″ rack equipment.
  • Integrated PEM nuts — threaded mounting built directly into the bracket.
  • Accurate rack conversion — converts 23″ rack rails to 19″ equipment mounting.
  • Powder-coated finish — corrosion-resistant and professional appearance.
  • Made in the USA — manufactured for professional telecom and data center installations.

Each pair of adapters is boxed and includes two types of EIA-style mounting hardware:

  • 8) 12-24 Black Panhead Dog-Point Phillips rack screws
  • 8) 10-32 Black Panhead Dog-Point Phillips rack screws

Dimensions — Standard Rack Unit Sizes
U Size Rack Spaces Height (inches) Height (cm)
1U 1 1.75″ 4.45 cm
2U 2 3.50″ 8.89 cm
3U 3 5.25″ 13.34 cm
4U 4 7.00″ 17.78 cm
5U 5 8.75″ 22.23 cm
8U 8 14.00″ 35.56 cm

Maintenance Tip: Multiply the rack unit size (U) by 1.75 to determine rack height in inches (1 inch = 2.54 cm). Example: 5U × 1.75″ = 8.75″ ≈ 22.23 cm.
