Product Overview
Model: AXIS TS3901 Rail Extensions
Who This Is For
When rack mounting depth is the priority, installers fitting the AXIS S3016 Recorder into a deep server rack need hardware that actually accounts for the recorder's physical footprint. Standard short-rail mounting positions can leave the unit unsupported at the rear, creating stress on chassis mounting points and an untidy finish inside the cabinet. The AXIS TS3901 Rail Extensions solve this by providing the additional rail depth required to seat the S3016 correctly across the full length of the chassis. Aimed at integrators, IT infrastructure teams, and security system installers working inside comms rooms, server cabinets, and network equipment enclosures, this kit ensures the recorder is properly supported, correctly seated, and aligned for cable management at the rear of the rack.
What This Actually Does
Extends Rail Depth
Designed specifically for the AXIS S3016 Recorder, these extensions add the additional rail length needed to support the unit in deep server racks where standard-depth rails leave the chassis unsupported at the rear.
Purpose-Made Fitment
Engineered as an official AXIS accessory, the TS3901 is matched to the S3016's dimensions and mounting points. There is no need to adapt generic rail hardware or risk a poorly aligned install inside the rack enclosure.
Supports Rear Cable Access
With the recorder properly seated across full-depth rails, rear-panel connectors for network, PoE, and power cabling sit where they are meant to, making cable routing tidier and patch management more straightforward inside the cabinet.
Reduces Chassis Stress
Mounting a 1U or 2U recorder on rails that do not reach the rear of the chassis places all the weight load on the front mounting ears. These extensions distribute the load correctly, which matters in environments subject to vibration or frequent servicing.
Who Buys This Model
- Security Integrators: Installing the AXIS S3016 into an existing comms room rack where cabinet depth exceeds what the standard rail kit covers.
- IT Infrastructure Teams: Managing shared server and network cabinets where rack equipment must be properly seated and supported to meet internal installation standards.
- Facilities and Comms Room Managers: Specifying correct mounting accessories at project design stage so the AXIS S3016 install meets rack manufacturer guidelines and audit requirements.
- System Upgrade Teams: Replacing or relocating an AXIS S3016 into a deeper rack cabinet as part of a comms room consolidation or refresh project.
Honest Assessment
The AXIS TS3901 Rail Extensions do one thing and do it properly - they give the AXIS S3016 Recorder the rear support it needs in a deep rack enclosure. Using the correct manufacturer-matched accessory eliminates the guesswork and improvisation that comes with generic rail adapters, and it means the install aligns with AXIS's own hardware guidelines. For any integrator who regularly works inside enterprise-grade or deep-format rack cabinets, having this kit on hand at installation day avoids a return visit. What this product will not do is add any functionality to the S3016 itself - it is purely a mechanical mounting accessory. It is also specific to the S3016 and should not be assumed compatible with other AXIS recorder models without confirming fitment. Available through Security Australia as part of the AXIS accessories range, this is a straightforward procurement for the right install scenario.
Before You Buy
Installer Note: Confirm your rack cabinet's internal depth before ordering. The TS3901 is designed to extend the rail depth for the AXIS S3016 specifically - measure the internal front-to-rear rail span in your cabinet and compare it against the S3016 chassis depth to determine whether this extension kit is required for your enclosure.
Compatibility Note: This kit is purpose-built for the AXIS S3016 Recorder. Do not assume it fits other AXIS rack-mount hardware. If you are installing a different AXIS recorder model, verify mounting accessory compatibility against that model's datasheet before purchasing.
Quick Fit Check
- Good match if: You are mounting the AXIS S3016 Recorder into a deep server rack cabinet and the standard rail kit does not reach the rear of the enclosure.
- Good match if: Your installation standard requires all 1U appliances to be fully supported front to rear before the rack is signed off - this kit provides that rear-rail support for the S3016.
- You may need a different model if: You are working with an AXIS recorder other than the S3016 - check the AXIS accessories range on securityaustralia.com.au for the correct mounting kit for your specific recorder model.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
Real-World Scenarios
How It Compares
- Choose this if: You are mounting the AXIS S3016 in a deep rack enclosure and need rear-rail support that the standard rail kit does not provide - this is the manufacturer-matched solution for that exact scenario.
- You may need a different model if: Your rack is standard depth and the existing S3016 rail kit already reaches the rear rails - in that case, no extension is required and the standard mounting hardware is sufficient.
- Pairs well with: The AXIS S3016 Recorder and any compatible PoE network switch or patch panel installed in the same rack enclosure.
Common Questions
-
Does the AXIS TS3901 work with any rack-mount recorder, or only the S3016?
Only the AXIS S3016. The TS3901 Rail Extensions are purpose-engineered to match the S3016's chassis dimensions and mounting point spacing. Using them with a different recorder model is not confirmed by AXIS and may result in incorrect fitment. If you are working with a different recorder, check the specific accessory list for that model. -
How do I know if my rack cabinet needs these extensions?
Measure the internal front-to-rear rail span inside your rack enclosure and compare it to the chassis depth of the AXIS S3016. If the internal depth of your rack exceeds what the standard rail kit covers, the TS3901 extensions are required to provide rear support. Most 4-post racks rated at 800mm or deeper will need them. -
Will this kit affect airflow or thermal management inside the rack?
No. The TS3901 is a passive mechanical rail extension - it has no impact on airflow. It simply extends the sliding rail to support the rear of the S3016 chassis. Standard 1U front-to-rear ventilation for the recorder is unchanged by fitting these extensions. -
Is this an official AXIS accessory or a third-party adapter?
Official AXIS accessory. The TS3901 is manufactured and sold by Axis Communications under part number 02528-001. It is not a third-party adapter, which means fitment and compatibility with the S3016 are confirmed by the manufacturer rather than estimated. The kit is stocked by Security Australia as part of the AXIS accessories range. -
Does this kit include all the hardware needed for installation?
Yes, as a complete rail extension kit it includes the components required to extend the rack rail depth for the S3016. Confirm at time of purchase whether additional rack fasteners are required for your specific cabinet type, as rack-mounting screw formats vary between enclosure manufacturers.
