OnQ5-Inch Mounting Plate for On-Q Enclosures – Customizable Accessory for Media Panels, Structured Wiring, and Home Networking - 5" Width x 1.5x Depth - Includes Clips & Cable Mangement - AC1050-EMK

The Q-mounting plate, whether in the large or small size, is such a handy item for organizing a media box. The only hiccup was that the pins didn't quite line up inside the box. I had to get creative and used Velcro to attach it. Once everything was set up with bracelets, Velcro, and pins, it worked wonderfully.

Let's start by saying the overall result is excellent. As mentioned in my headline, I originally purchased these mounting plates to go in my existing (metal) Legrand On Q enclosure installed when the house was built in 2016. I was sadly surprised to find them 100% incompatible! (Note: I have the newest version of the plate, not the older style. Maybe the older one fits the metal cabinet, but I never bought that one). Anyway, I decided to stay with the Legrand Brand and replaced the enclosure with a 30 inch version from my local (Blue) home center. Note: The 30" enclosure does not fit Qty 3 of these 10" mounting plates. Only Qty 2 of the 10" and Qty 1 of the 5" raised plate. That actually worked out better because the raised 5" plate was able to pass cables underneath it to other components lower down in the cabinet. In hindsight I should have gotten the 42" cabinet because I realize now it would've been nice have room for future growth and to have added the Ring home alarm system module inside the cabinet with stacking it on top of the switch. But it’ll be ok there. I did manage to include a home network video recorder (NVR) for the Qty 8 POE cameras I installed a few years back. Anyway, I very please with the final result. Get yourself some Velcro straps because the red clamps have limited attachment points on the mounting plate, especially if you want to mount them at the bottom of a component. That's why mine are seen mounted on the sides. They do hold the weight of the components very well. The heaviest piece is the NVR and I imagine that's at least 3-4 pounds and held with Velcro. Excellent product overall! 5stars

Although it is on the pricier side, it features a well-designed layout that allows you to securely organize modems, routers, and other IoT devices neatly.

These work fine for organizing a media cabinet, but they are pricey for what you get. Moving into a new home the equipment was just shoved in the cabinet, meaning that I had to be careful opening it up to keep things from falling out. Connections also came loose easily. This set, as well as a shelf, fixed that problem. I opted not to use the included clamps and just used velcro instead. My biggest complaint is that the company makes media cabinets that are basically useless without buying add-ons. Their cabinets should at least include a bottom shelf and/or attachment points that don't require their connectors to use, or simply include some connectors with the unit.

Yeah, $25 is a lot for some plastic pieces, but it is a very specific part, made to fit in the standard enclosure boxes. Unfortunately, I didn't read the sizes, and thought this was for a standard 8 port switch, it's almost double the length needed. Other than that, the height and width are perfect. The inclusion of the adjustable clips basically makes this set enough parts to install 2 pieces of hardware. I used the plate for my switch, and the clips for my Hue hub. Also has instructions for those (like me) who have never used a media enclosure before and are not sure how the pins install.

What a waste of time and money. The AC1050 does not fit the 9" or 17" enclosures. The entire Legrand product line is a mess of products that look alike and say On-Q but do not fit all of the boxes. Basically the 20" and bigger have a completely different hole pattern. The push pins are different sizes, the red clamps interfere with the cover, etc. This is what happens when companies merge and forget to integrate. What a cluster. Once you realize this, then you'll come to find that there are zero accessories for the 9" and 17" so in theory you're going to end up with a DIY mess on your hands.

Hmm practical options to pack the media enclosure

This is a nice looking bracket with a problem. If you look for "On-Q Enclosures" you'll find a few online, but the most common one here on Amazon will NOT fit this bracket. None of the holes line up.

It is what it is so not much to say other than I can recommend it..
