[Motorola] Equipment Rack Sources??

The Motorola racks are not standard 19" racks. 
Although they are the same width, Motorola drilled
holes evenly along the rails.  A "true" 19" rack has
the holes grouped together with varying spacing
between the holes.

You cannot always get "true" rack panels to "match up"
(that is not have gaps between them) when using a
Motorola type of rack.  Conversely, Motorola equipment
will not always "match up" when using a "true" rack.

Both 19" and 23" wide racks are used throughout the
computer industry especially in large equipment rooms.
 You can often get a "good deal" on used racks from
used computer dealers.

These are the 19.5 inch variety. They have thick,
aluminum bases, tops and rails.
