Default How do you mount non-rack gear in a rack?

I was also thinking of velcro, but wasn't sure if it was strong
enough, or how I would attach it. The sticky-back velcro tape
probably wouldn't work, it would need to wrap around, but ideally it
would have to be fastened to the shelf somehow.

I use velcro for the kind of thing you're doing. There's only a
cursory amount that attaches the units to the case. Then, two long
strips come from either side and wrap around the unit twice and under
the shelf surface. Strips are superglued on one end to the sides of
the case. I sort of said what the hell on that one : ). But it
works with the strips wrapped during travel and unwrapped during use.


Yep the velcro method seems to be the simplest. I wish there was a
way to do it without messing up the cases of these units.


You can usually peel it off, if you're careful. If any adhesive is left
behind, there are products made to remove it.

If you're mounting the gear semi-permanently though, you might prefer
the double-sided mounting pads. They're harder to get off, but that's
an advantage if you don't intend to remove them but once.
