Electronics Wall Cage - Large

I've been upgrading our home network, which included swapping the current UniFi Lite 8 switches on each floor for the Flex 2.5G 8 PoE. The old cage I designed around the Lite 8 was too small for the new switch, so I designed this one.

It's a wall-mounted cage that helps keep coats and other stuff off of the switch, promoting airflow. The 2.5G PoE switches seem to run hotter than the Lite 8, so not having them smothered seems more important.

Two printed parts: the cage base and a top plate. The top isn't structural — you can use the cage without it. It's just there to keep coats, cables, etc from swinging into the switch.

Compatibility It will fit devices up to roughly 220 x 105 x 40mm. Tested with the UniFi USW Flex 2.5G 8 PoE, but it'll work for any device in that size range.

Hardware

  • 4 M3 heat-set inserts or M3 nuts (into the base)
  • M3x12 bolts (top plate to base)
  • Drywall screws (to mount to the wall)

Printing PLA is probably fine, but if you want to make sure it never softens due to the electronics heat, I would use PETG (or greater)

Print Settings

  • Layer height: 0.2mm
  • Infill: 25-30%
  • Supports: No
  • Material: PETG/ABS/ASA
  • Print time: ~3 hours for the base, ~1 hour for the top
