Mac Pro Rack Mount Kit?

Come on Apple. If you are change from Xserve to Mac Pro for servers, at least offer a rack mount kit or a case that has attachable rails. I don't want to use 12U of space to stand up a Mac Pro on a shelf in a rack.
I apologize if you already offer this as an optio, but I sure couldn't find it.

Some rumor sites are saying that a new Mac Pro cabinet is being developed which will change rack mounting. We may know more about it by the end of the summer.

Rack mount kits doesn't fit the depth of Agilent rack

I have a PXI 1085 Chassis which I want to mount in an Agilent rack. I purchased the front and rear rack mount kits, the height and width are great, but the depth of my rack doesn’t allow me to use both the front and rear rack mount kits. Is there some kind of adapter I can buy which will extend the rear rack mount so that it can reach the back?

Hi Chall,
Unfortuantely we only offer the kits for a certain size range. If this does not fit your rack then you will have to create a custom rack mount.

MCS-7835H3-OFFER= Is a rack mounting kit included?

I have a customer who is getting their MCS7835H2-DMM51K9 server replaced with a MCS-7835H3-OFFER=
All I need to know is, does the MCS-7835H3-OFFER= come with a rack mounting kit or not? If not, could the existing MCS7835H2-DMM51K9 server's rails be reused?
I'm assuming that it's the same chassis but with a faster processor and more mem/disk and would be a straight swap but can anyone clarify if this "H3" part number comes with a rack mount kit?
Thanks,
DR

Rack mount kit for SRW208P?

Hello all -- anybody with 2 x rack mount kits for a SRW208P that they don't want? I need to rack mount these devices but my predecessor very wisely decided to throw them out and Cisco does not sell the racks as a separate SKU. Thanks.
Victor

Hi Victor, you're right the separate skus aren't for sale. However, I'd recommend to call the SBSC team. A lot of times, if your product is under warranty, they are able to ship a replacement unit to you then you can remove the rack mount and just return the package. It's worth a shot!

Catalyst 3850 rack mount kit: 3850-RACK-KIT or C3850-4PT-KIT ?

When purchasing a Cisco Catalyst 3850, do we need to buy the rack mounting kit to install it in a standard 19" rack? 3850-RACK-KIT or C3850-4PT-KIT ? Is the 4-point kit really necessary, can the 3850 hang only on the front of the rack?

No, you don't need the C3850-4PT-KIT. 3850-RACK-KIT comes in the box and it is good enough as long as you rack it nice and tide. The reason some people use C3850-4PT-KIT is because the switch will hang from the back a little when using 3850-RACK-KIT and so if you don't like that than you want the 4PT.

Extras from the Rack Mount Kit

With the XServe rack mount kits sending us parts for both the shallow and deep racks, is there something we can do with all the extra parts we do not use? Does apple have a recycle/reuse for them or do we just send them down to the local recycler along with the soda cans from install night?
I also keep thinking there has to be some good use for that large white plastic shipping cover that comes on the XServe but we only have so many doors needing propped open.
Any suggestions?

Your local Apple Authorized Service Provider would probably love them! If you gave them to him free, he would be your new best friend, and you would strike up a relationship with someone who may work with you when it comes time to procure new hardware.

ASA5505 Rack Mount Kit

May I know the rack mount kit for ASA 5505 released yet? May I have the part number of it?
Many Thanks!

I checked with my local SE before, they also haven't any information.
Because my local SE give me wrong part no of this rack mount kit, I need to provide this part no for replacement!
Many Thanks!

Anyone have a used rack mounting kit (076-1234) ?

I bought a great Early 2008 Xserve from a guy. I'm building it up now with fresh ram, new enterprise hard drives etc. It's coming out great. But I need to get a square hole rack mount kit. I thought that would be the easy part, but they're really hard to find. The only places that carry them online, are price gouging the crap out of them because apple has stopped selling them. I don't need a nice shiny new kit though. A well used, paint-scraped rail kit would be perfect.

Hi stephenberry,
I have 2 Right brackets because it was shipped wrongly from a reseller as well. Would you be willing to trade a left bracket for a right bracket?

Finding rack mount kit for Cisco SF300-48P

I have a 10/100 POE managed switch laying around that I wanted to rack up to use for my VoIP phones. I however, had since lost the mounts (or never had them to begin with).
I've been looking all darn day for mounts just for this. It doesn't seem to fit any other of the 10,000 or so rack kits I have in house.
So far google and Ebay have been failing me. Everyone wants to sell me a darn switch, and I have that. I just want the bloody ears gosh darnit.
Can someone please, send me a model number I can search for on Amazon or Ebay to grab them?
Cheers,
Mike

If you are in the UK you could try ringing hardware.com.
They have supplied me with 'cisco-compatable' rackmount kits in the past at a fraction of the price of the genuine article.
Worth a shot.

RV320 Rack Mount Kit

All of our small business locations have racks and most have RV082's that I want to upgrade to the RV320. Are there any rackmount kits for these?

Hi Patrick,
Hope you are well. The RV320 does not have a rackmount kit available. My apologies for the inconvenience.
The RV325 has not launched yet - and consequently has not been announced. Unfortunately the RV325 does not have a RM kit either.
Best,
Marc

Rack Mount kit for SR520

Included or spare part? Or maybe not availble?? :)

The "Router Mounting Procedures" indicates they are not included but must be ordered separately. However I do not see any associated part numbers provided. I have requested this information from the product team and will provide more details when I get them.

Mac Pro no longer mounts external usb devices

Hi there,
Last week my mac pro stopped mounting my ipod shuffle as a disk (i was using it like a usb memory stick), i thought it was a problem with the shuffle and left it aside. But just yesterday the mac stopped mounting my external lacie 500gb disk. I had never had any problems before this.
I then tried both the shuffle and external hd on my powerbook g4. They work perfectly!
I then thought it might have been a problem with the usb ports on the mac pro - although all my other usb devices were still working - so i booted into xp with bootcamp, and the devices were recognised in xp perfectly.
After searching various threads on different forums the general idea for this problem seemed to be to reinstall osx, which i have just done, and no joy. Im still not able to mount either of these devices.
System profiler sees the devices, but thats it.
Also, i recently bought a new usb memory stick (as i thought the shuffle was dead), this mounts and works perfectly!
Anyone got any ideas?!
Thanks

Yes, i did the combo update immediatly after reinstalling osx and before pluggin in the usb device.
The problem developed just before the release of 10.4.9, so i dont think it was the update that did it.
I've only just got this MP back from Apple. The PSU had to be replaced. It took them nearly 3 weeks to do

12 core Mac Pro does not improve render time over iMac quad core

I'm rendering the same composition independently on two computers and they are basically rendering at the same rate, which is slightly better than 1 frame per second.
The project settings and preferences are identical in each instance (with the exception of memory and multiprocessing, which I have experimented with ad nauseum). The composition includes no motion blur, no effects, just a couple of layers of chroma keyed .mov files (using keylight 2.0) and some still images. Neither machine is running any other applications, except occasionally Google Chrome, which seems to have no effect on performance.
Both systems are running the latest version of After Effects CC (2014) and using the Classic 3D renderer.
System 1 MAC PRO:
Mac Pro 12 core 2.7 GHz Intel Xeon E5
dual AMD FirePro 500D 3072 MB GPUs
32 GB RAM
OS X 10.9.4
System 2 iMAC:
iMac quad core 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB GPU
8 GB RAM
OS X 10.9.3
As you can see, system 1 is vastly more powerful, and yet no combination of memory/multiprocessing settings can get the system to render faster than system 2.
It doesn't seem to matter how much or little RAM I reserve for other applications (I have settled on 4 GB), or the number of CPUs I reserve for After Effects. The one setting that has improved performance is turning OFF render multiple frames. And even then it only brings the performance of the Mac Pro up to par with the iMac. I have cleared my cache, rebooted the computer, and read everything I can find online regarding the optimization of render settings.
Here's a comparison of the respective CPU Loads:
iMac
Mac Pro
With such a low CPU load, After Effects is obviously not utilizing the resources available to it on the Mac Pro. What a waste.
Can anyone help?

There's plenty of debate about the new Mac Pro vs a kitted out iMac. Benchmarks show that some iMac After Effects processing can actually be faster than on a Mac Pro, depending on the content and some other factors. If you're using software that has been optimised for the Mac Pro's GPU-centric architecture, like Final Cut Pro X, you will see great benefits.
mac pro vs imac
In my own facility recently we opted out of purchasing Mac Pros this year, and bought top-end iMacs instead. The benefit to cost ratio simply didn't make sense for us right now. Mac Pros are awesome machines, but a significant component of their cost is the dual GPUs, which are simply no benefit to After Effects.
Reports say that the After Effects engineers are working on a major revamp of the After Effects processing system, so I'm betting you will realise far greater benefits from your Mac pro in coming AE versions. For now, you may continue to see performance that is not spectacularly better than a souped-up iMac, depending on the type of processing involved.
I've seen a few benchmarks that suggest the 8 core systems give better bang-for-buck than the 12 cores. Try reducing your processors to 8 in After Effects and see if it makes a difference. With 8 cores, allocate 3GB of RAM per core to leave some RAM for the OS.
