ATEN Easy Installation Rack Mount Kit (Short) for LCD KVM Switch/Console

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’ve already got an ATEN LCD KVM and you want it to look and behave properly in a real server room, this rack-mount kit is the boring-but-right choice. The “easy installation” claim is believable in practice: it’s essentially the bit that stops your KVM turning into a half-rack workstation and makes cable routing and access far less annoying. For **£64.84 ex‑VAT**, I’d say it’s fair—because it saves you faffing, improvising brackets, and the usual “will it fit?” uncertainty that ends up costing more in time than the parts.

That said, it’s not a universal upgrade. If your setup isn’t an ATEN LCD KVM that’s intended to use this exact rail/bracket arrangement, I wouldn’t buy it “just to see”—alignment and mounting compatibility matter, and this kind of accessory is usually model-specific. So: **buy it** if you’re mounting a compatible ATEN LCD KVM in a UK rack and want a clean, supported install. **Skip it** if you’re not 100% sure of compatibility, or if you’re happy running the KVM as a desktop unit where rack space isn’t a concern.
