Icom IASMNT1028
16U Desktop 2-Post Rack
Heavy-Duty Open Frame Solution for Repeater Infrastructure
The Icom IASMNT1028 is a professional-grade, 16U desktop open-frame rack designed to centralize and secure mission-critical repeater systems and power supplies. With a substantial 350lb weight capacity, this 2-post rack is engineered to manage the heavy physical load of multiple digital repeaters, duplexers, and rack-mounted power units. The Icom IASMNT1028 provides an organized, accessible platform for dispatch centers, server rooms, and remote site enclosures where a full-sized cabinet is unnecessary but structural integrity is paramount.
Measuring 28 inches in height and 19 inches in width, the Icom IASMNT1028 is optimized for desktop or shelf-top placement, bringing communication infrastructure to a comfortable working height for technicians. The open-frame design ensures maximum airflow and passive cooling, which is essential for preventing thermal shutdown in high-duty cycle digital repeaters. By utilizing the Icom IASMNT1028, organizations can ensure their Icom CY and FR series infrastructure is mounted according to professional standards, facilitating easy cable management and rapid equipment maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this rack require assembly? Yes. The IASMNT1028 typically ships flat-packed to reduce shipping costs and includes the necessary high-strength bolts for a secure assembly.
Can I mount this to the floor? While designed as a desktop unit, many users secure the base to a heavy-duty shelf or platform for added stability in high-vibration environments.
Is 16U enough space for two repeaters and power? Absolutely. A standard repeater and power supply setup usually occupies 3U to 5U, leaving plenty of room in a 16U rack for additional equipment, cooling fans, or battery chargers.
