Hi Sunfox ..
Well, yeah. Which is why I’m finding it confusing that it’s referred to specifically as a 1U NVR, but then the specs for the model I have (still in box) says it’s 2.2” high. There is also an official rackmount adapter sold for it (but expensive), so it’s not like “1U” could be assumed to refer to some other measurement system.
feel free to share a picture of what your setup ends up as ..
Will do! Moved to a new place and it’s my first time doing a proper organized rack. For the last umpteen years I’ve just had various piles of switches and servers, lol.
Definitely looks like it’s 2”. A 1U device can be only 1.75” absolute max, assuming it had ears that could be mounted directly on the sides. (See Unifi switches that are 1.7”).
Industry standards in the security camera industry?
Looks like 1.75 to me which is 1U. I compared with my unifi 1U devices and they are the same height. I don’t think the version I have is even rackable if I recall.
Well, they should at least stop using industry standard terms inappropriately!
None of those things are their standards.
The reason the shelf doesn’t line up is because if I placed it higher up, the NVR wouldn’t have fit due to the thickness of the shelf. Remember, it’s on a shelf, it’s not mounted. Oh and yes it does have rubber feet I believe which also adds to the height. Good point.Has it got feet on it?
Did you include those in the measurement?
Why does the shelf it sits on not be aligned to an RU?
The entire setup is now ruined and must be destroyed.
Heh, that caught my eye too, but you have a VERY neat and tidy setup there. And Unifi FTW! At least, for everything but cameras.
where did you get that mount? I am wanting to do the same in my closet. Also, are you mounted in a stud or just using wall anchors?
HI @Rusty Ross
I don’t have studs on the piece I’m screwing into though. The span is too short and the only studs are in the corners. Weight of the NVR is close to 10 pounds
