Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the RackMount Kit-13 and the RACKMOUNT KIT-19?
The RackMount Kit-13 is designed for 13-inch half-rack enclosures and wall-mount cabinets, while the RACKMOUNT KIT-19 is designed for standard full-size 19-inch racks. The 13-inch kit is suited to smaller installations where space is limited; the 19-inch kit is the standard for server rooms and full-size comms cabinets. Ensure you select the correct kit for your rack size.
How do I know if this kit is compatible with my switch?
Check the TP-Link product page for your specific switch model to confirm RackMount Kit-13 is listed as a compatible accessory. Alternatively, measure the mounting ear dimensions and hole spacing on your switch — if they match the kit's dimensions, it will be compatible. If in doubt, contact us before purchasing.
Does my switch come with rack mount ears included?
Some TP-Link switches include rack mount ears in the box; others do not. Check the contents list on your switch's product page or packaging. If rack mount ears were not included or have been lost, the RackMount Kit-13 is the replacement accessory for 13-inch rack installations.
What size rack does it fit?
The RackMount Kit-13 is designed for 13-inch half-rack enclosures and wall-mount cabinets — commonly used in small office, retail, and residential network installations where a full 19-inch rack is not practical.
