Steve Menegotto, Product Design Team Leader at Hammond Maunfacturing, comments: “The strength of our new wall mount rack comes from the centre pivot point. When testing various options, we discovered that having the rack pivot at the center increased the equipment load capacity and reduced bowing caused in traditional swing-out racks. This additional capacity allowed us to offer sizes that range in height from 12 up to 32 rack units. In addition to these features we have integrated several points where the swing frame can be locked into an open position allowing the tech or installer to easily work on the equipment.”
