mark123Plates to fill the holes in a computer rack case
I got a rackmount case and there are holes in the back that I need to fill so that I can place some 1/4" jacks to the back.
Here is what it looks like:
Is there a name for the plates that fit in the square holes in the back? I prefer solid, not vented. I'm not concerned about the round fan holes in the front.

BillyBonesNYThose holes are usually filled with something useful, not covered.
I'd pop rivet sheet steel over it.

smschulzI'd just fabricate something made out of steel, aluminum or abs plastic, then mount your ports on than.
Shouldn't be all that difficult.

The something useful will be four 1/4" jacks.
Oh, and a MIDI in and thru.

striker1Looks like a generic mITX server enclosure. I know you can get a universal (blank) I/O shield for standard ATX/ITX openings, in which you can create your own holes. Not certain about low profile mITX I/O, however.
In your photo, the center hole is the I/O, and the left is for the power supply.
A “standard” I/O opening is 159mm x 45mm, and a short I/O opening is only 25mm high.

i/o shield blank seems to be correct for the middle hole. Thanks.
