Abstract

A telecommunication relay rack for mounting on a floor includes a pair of uprights. A horizontal member is secured to the top of the uprights and a base is secured to the bottom of the uprights. The base includes a pair of identical half bases. Each of the half bases is a single unitary member including a squaring plate. A pair of feet is formed integral with opposed ends of each of the squaring feet. Each foot has a toe pad positioned below the bottom of the respective upright. Each upright has a pair of vertically spaced aligning apertures adjacent to the respective bottom on opposite sides of the upright. Each squaring plate has a pair of vertically spaced base apertures aligned with the respective aligning apertures. A base fastener in the base aperture and aligning aperture secures the respective squaring plate to a respective side of each upright to hold the uprights in a substantially vertical attitude parallel to each other. The toe pads are mounted on a floor whereupon the relay rack is supported.
