Key Features and Benefits

The RKBM Series Rack Mount Keyboard & Equipment Shelf combines an ergonomic keyboard tray with a rear equipment shelf to create a practical workstation directly within your rack. The rear platform supports monitors, laptops, test equipment, and other devices, while the angled keyboard tray provides a comfortable typing position for equipment configuration, diagnostics, and maintenance.

Constructed from heavy-duty 14-gauge steel with a 100 lb load capacity, the RKBM mounts in just 2U of rack space and is available in both 19-inch and 23-inch widths. Manufactured in North America, it is an ideal solution for telecommunications rooms, industrial control systems, server rooms, and any installation where technicians need a dedicated workspace without the complexity of sliding shelves or separate accessories.
