hi There,

Those will help to make the rack mount inside my cabinet, but what I
specifically require is something to do the role of the tie down bar
that was attached to the first patch panel I purchased. The other
patch panel, and most of those I see on ebay simply don't have this,
or a method for attaching similar.

Please see photo at

l+Tie+down+bar.jpg?

Thats in the photo section under Big_Red_Frog

I have no edit tool with me while I am abroad so that file is big, I
will remove it in the near future once I have resolved this issue!

All comment welcome, I think I am just being dull!
