Extron RSB 126 Rack Shelf for 1U Half-Rack Products

The Extron RSB 126 Rack Shelf delivers a compact, reliable mounting platform specifically engineered for installing one half-rack width Extron product—or combinations of quarter-rack and eighth-rack devices—into standard 19-inch equipment racks. Occupying just 1U of rack space, it maximizes density in crowded AV racks while maintaining full accessibility for cabling, controls, and servicing.

This shelf excels in professional AV environments where space is at a premium and a mix of compact Extron signal processors, switchers, distribution amplifiers, scalers, or audio interfaces must be neatly organized alongside full-rack gear. By providing a dedicated half-rack mounting surface, it eliminates makeshift solutions, reduces cable strain, and contributes to a tidy, professional rack elevation that simplifies future expansions or troubleshooting.

Constructed from heavy-duty steel with a durable black powder coat finish, the RSB 126 offers exceptional rigidity and vibration resistance essential for rack-mounted applications. Precision-cut mounting holes align perfectly with the standard 3-inch, 6-inch, and 9.5-inch depth patterns found on most Extron half-rack products, ensuring rock-solid attachment without adapters or modifications.

Primary applications include AV racks in conference rooms, control rooms, classrooms, boardrooms, houses of worship, and broadcast facilities where integrators frequently combine half-rack width Extron devices with full-rack components. It is especially valuable in retrofits or dense installations where every rack unit counts and a consistent, factory-like appearance is desired.

Compatibility is optimized for the complete family of Extron half-rack width products, with support for single half-rack, dual quarter-rack, or quad eighth-rack configurations when used in conjunction with appropriate false faceplates or blank panels. The shelf mounts directly into any standard 19-inch equipment rack using conventional rack screws and integrates seamlessly with Extron's broader rack accessory lineup, including cable management bars and power distribution units.

Installation is fast and straightforward: secure the shelf to the rack rails at the desired 1U position, align the Extron device(s) with the pre-drilled mounting holes, and fasten using the provided hardware. The open-frame design allows unrestricted front and rear access for cabling, while the robust steel construction supports the full weight of mounted equipment without flexing or sagging over time.
