I am trying to find a network switch that is rack mounted, with nothing more then indicator lights on the front. I would like all the ports to face the rear of the rack. This would be going into an Audio/Video rack so it will not have any wires on the front. All the switches I have found are the traditional front facing switches. I probably only need 8 ports but will more then likely get a 16 port switch if I can find one. Does anyone know if one exists that will have the ports and power cable all in the rear?

 

Never saw one. Mount it in the back of the cabinet and no one will see it.

 

Thats what I have been considering doing, but do not want it to interfere with any of the other equipment. The rack will have a decent amount of equipment in it. It may be my only choice though.

 

Here you go!

PERFECT. Thank you.

 

Yeah, I've seen one of those before. I remember seeing a switch that had the AC Port on the same side as the ethernet ports, I may have one here at the office if I can find it. if I remember correctly it looks very similar to the one in that PDF
