Dear all,
I very much like the RB5009UPr+S+IN router.
I have a cabinet with DIN-rail and would like to mount in in there.
Preferably in this orientation (a bit of a bad photo but you get the idea).
Does anybody has a good how-to? Or knows a good bracket to buy?
Thank you.
Well, you have a rather deep cabinet with DIN rails, the RB5009 in that orientation will take some 150-180 mm (considering the cables loops not too tight).

To mount the device in that orientation you need to add a couple square brackets and a plate, the overall effect should be like this one:

Given that RB5009 shape is becoming ubiquitous in Mikrotik’s product range, I’ll second that a DIN adaptation kit would be greatly appreciated.
The holes in most DIN-rails match up pretty well with the notches of the router. I have mounted an L009 that way. So ..an angle bracket, a piece of rail and suitable clips should be enough for a vertical DIY mount of questionable stability.
Well, your mount Is more "normal", similar to a common wall mount, horizontal and flat, with two fixing points, OP wants It vertical and sideways, It will be definitely less "solid" as there can be only one clamp on the rail unless a counter rail Is used with two clamps, but that would take some horizontal space, I would say some 10 cm to give enough lever and thus resistance.
With suitable mounting accessory, an RB5009 would perfectly compete with DIN rail mounted switches like the above (https://www.fs.com/fr/products/148181.html?now_cid=4242) along with an external power supply must be mounted.
Use such a DIN rail extender to get mounting plate which the 5009 could be mounted to using existing screws.
