If I was going to rule any out based on rails it'd be their half width
model. Craziest rails I've seen. It's actually a frame that sits inside
the rack rails so you need quite a bit of space above to angle it to
fit between the rails.

Once you have stuff above and below the frame isn't coming out (at
least the switches just slide into it)
