RackFoundry DeskPi RackMate T1 UK Edition Builder Kit
The DeskPi RackMate T1 is the most popular 10-inch mini-lab rack, but out of the box it has no UK power and leaves you hunting for parts. Our UK Edition Builder Kit fixes that with everything you need to build a tidy Proxmox, UniFi or Pi cluster from day one.
You get the 8U RackMate T1 (10mm die-cast aluminium frame, acrylic sides, 200mm deep) plus a Kenable 3-way UK 13A surge-protected PDU, two 1U cantilever shelves, a DeskPi 0.5U 12-port Cat6 patch panel, a 0.5U brush cable entry panel, two six-packs of 0.2m Cat6A patch leads and a DeskPi #10-32 screw set, so every part fixes properly to the threaded rails.
Please check depth before ordering: the T1 is 200mm deep, which suits Raspberry Pis, small switches and shallow devices. One-litre PCs around 183mm deep are tight once cables are connected, and our configurator will suggest the T2 NAS and Cluster Pro Kit instead. Parts come from more than one UK supplier and may arrive in separate parcels.

Frequently asked questions
Will three Lenovo Tiny PCs fit?
Our configurator flags this: 183mm plus 75mm for cables needs 258mm, more than the T1's 200mm. Choose the T2 NAS and Cluster Pro Kit.
Why include a UK PDU?
DeskPi does not make a UK mains PDU. The Kenable unit gives you three proper BS1363 13A sockets with surge protection.
Will everything arrive together?
Parts come from more than one UK supplier, so they may arrive in separate parcels.
