RaxX puts a new twist on 19-inch racking systems

Available from distributor MTR, RaxX is a new British-based rack mount system manufacturer with a fresh twist on the essential 19-inch racking.
The RaxX system uses uprights that fix directly to a wall, and side arms that attach to the upright and the front panel of the rack units - in what RaxX claim is an infinitely expandable concept.
Designed for fixed installations, the RaxX system ‘starter pack’ consists of two 6U upright sections that are fixed to the wall using the screws and cavity fixing plugs supplied. Six 1U side arms complete the pack, and are fitted to the uprights with the supplied M6 bolts.
The two key advantages of this system are its cost-effectiveness and remarkable flexibility. It can be expanded vertically and indeed horizontally, since each upright has two rows of holes, able to take the right side of the first row of products and the left side of the next row along.
This highly versatile design makes it suitable for very many applications; installations in studios, concert venues, theatres, houses of worship, computer rooms, home and project studios, for medical equipment, custom audio/video home installations, even display/demo racks in retail music shops.
Side arms are currently available in 1U and 2U, in lengths of 250, 400 and 600mm, with wall uprights of 6U, 12U and 18U. Custom sizes can be made to order, and a range of RaxXcessories will be available including a cable tidy, half-rack adapter, CD rack, and other accessories.
Distributed exclusively by MTR Ltd, the Starter Kit is RRP £47.59 inc. VAT.
