1U rear security cage

The Tripp Lite SR1UCAGEREAR is a 1U fixed standoff cage that mounts to the rear of a standard rack. Heavy-duty steel construction and a locking door protect installed equipment and cabling from damage, tampering and theft. Perforated panels maintain airflow and allow visual monitoring of status LEDs. Included hardware enables installation over existing devices without removing them.

Suited for shared or public racks

This cage is designed for environments where physical access cannot be tightly controlled, such as co-location facilities, open-plan offices or retail back rooms. It secures a single rack unit of gear while preserving cable routing through access ports on both ends. Buyers needing to lock multiple contiguous units or requiring front-access security should evaluate alternative solutions.

Holds one rack unit of equipment

The enclosure accommodates a single 1U device and its associated rear cabling. Two cable-entry ports provide headroom for typical patch cords and power leads. The fixed standoff depth is set by the included brackets, so deeper chassis or large cable bundles may not fit. First listed by the manufacturer in 2022.

Questions about this item

What rack-mount equipment must already be installed before this 1U cage can be fitted?

The cage mounts over existing 1U rack devices using the included hardware, so the target server or switch must already occupy that rack space.

Will the perforated steel panels block airflow to older rack gear behind the cage?

Perforations allow air to pass through to the equipment inside, maintaining cooling for legacy devices mounted in the same 1U slot.

How can I confirm the lock is securing the cage correctly after installation?

Engage the lock and verify the door cannot be opened; the steel frame should sit flush against the rack rails with no visible gaps.
