Which of the dimensions is the height? 21.3" or 26.5"?

Height is 18", width 20" and depth is 12". (all dimension +/- 1/8")

Will a dream machine pro mount OK on this?

The depth of the rack is 11.9" and the depth of the Dream Machine Pro 11.24". That's pretty tight variance there. That's prior to the power adapter. I would probably say no. With that said, there is another option with this. When you mount it to the wall, mount a 2x4 to the wall first and mount this to the 2x4 on the top and bottom. That will give you an extra 1.5". Just a thought. I purchased this to mount my smaller switch, a shelf, and a power bar for my lab at home and overall I like it. For me it has good cost to value ratio.

Can you mount a Cisco Router 2851 on this one?

I think your problem will be with the depth. This rack is 12 inches deep, I believe this Cisco router is listed at (1.72 x 17.49 x 16.5 in.), so 16.5 inches is too deep.

Is this rack sturdy enough to sit on a flat surface, without mounting to a wall?

Yes and No - The rack has to be assembled and the design depends on the extremities being mounted to a wall. If you were to add a support from the lower extremity to the upper extremity on both sides, then it would be sturdy enough, else I would have to say No. Of course it all depends on what you are mounting in the rack and how many devices. If you are going to fill it up, then absolutely add the supports.

Arrivato nei tempi previsti con un buon imballo per le condizioni erano perfette, cosa non scontata quando si tratta di oggetti di metallo. I pesci erano singolarmente protetti da buste di nylon e strati di pannolini di polistirolo. In fatti non presentavano né graffi né ammaccature. Il montaggio é abbastanza semplice ed intuitivo con istruzioni non chiarissime ma comprensibili velocemente.Arriva con tutte le viti a corredo per il montaggio del rack e anche quelle per il montaggio degli apparato che non sono le classiche viti con gabbietta bensì delle viti autofilettanti che si inseriscono nei buchi predisposti. E qui la prima piccola nota negativa: se é un rack da 4 posizioni uno si aspetterebbe di trovare 16 viti non 12. Altra piccola nota negativa: sebbene nel suo complesso il rack sia abbastanza robusto, uno spessore maggiore dei laterali regolabili sarebbe stata gradita, sebbene una volta fissati gli apparati ovviamente non si muovono né flettono. Nel complesso un buon pack da usare sia a muro che appoggiato su un piano per piccole esigenze e per chi ha poco spazio. Io personalmente l'ho usato per poter installare un apparato di ridondanza ed un NAS da rack che avevano una profondità maggiore del mio armadio e per avere dello spazio aggiuntivo posizionandolo sopra di esso e non fissato a muro. E' stata una soluzione economica e rapida piuttosto che cambiare tutto l'armadio di rete. Consigliato come tutti i prodotti StarTech che sono sempre molto affidabili

Decided that screwing my network gear to wall studs wasn't very professional looking, this rack is the perfect replacement. Now i just need to clean up the cabling... :-) Ships flat packed, but easy to assemble, easy to mount (used #12 or #14 round head screws), and the included cage nuts and bolts are easy to use. Measure your equipment depths! Glad it's open to the back or i would have had to get right angle power cords for one of my peices!
