Middle Atlantic Wide SR Series Rack, SR28-46-32

Introducing the Middle Atlantic Wide SR Series Rack SR28-46-32, a high-capacity wall rack designed to simplify dressing, organization and management of high-density cabling. This wider model provides generous space on either side of the cabinet, improving cable integrity, thermal management, and the overall aesthetics of the rack in professional installations. Built for reliability and easy scalability, the SR28-46-32 blends robust construction with thoughtful design to streamline every phase of deployment, from initial setup to ongoing maintenance.

• Expanded width creates generous dressing space, allowing you to route cables cleanly along the sides and behind panels. This extra room helps maintain proper bend radii, reduces cable stress on connectors, and supports tidy labeling for quick upgrades or changes. The result is a neater, more professional installation that scales as your system grows, while keeping critical cabling organized and accessible for service calls.
• Pivot design and flexible mounting options enable rapid access to rear cabling without removing equipment. Removable mid-rails and adaptable side channels let technicians reconfigure layouts on site, speeding deployments and simplifying future changes. This modular approach minimizes downtime and improves workflow in data centers, studios, and mission-critical environments.
• Enhanced airflow and thermal management with front and rear ventilation paths. Perforated doors and vented side panels promote consistent air movement, helping equipment operate at cooler temperatures and maintain peak performance. The design mitigates hot spots in dense installations, potentially extending component life and reducing fan noise.
• Compatibility and modularity designed for standard 19-inch equipment and SR Series accessories. Adjustable mounting rails and robust side channels accommodate a wide range of devices—from switches and PDU modules to patch panels—while preserving a clean, cohesive appearance when paired with other SR Series elements. This flexibility makes the Wide SR Series ideal for evolving networks and media installations.
• Durable construction with an emphasis on aesthetics and long-term reliability. Built from high-strength steel with a durable powder-coated finish, the SR28-46-32 stands up to busy environments while maintaining a professional look. Integrated cable management channels, clean lines, and a compact footprint help reduce visual clutter and deliver a scalable infrastructure that looks as good as it performs.

How to install Middle Atlantic Wide SR Series Rack SR28-46-32

• Prepare the installation area by locating studs and ensuring a solid wall surface capable of supporting the rack’s weight and the mounted equipment. Have all required mounting hardware, level, and tools ready to ensure a plumb installation from start to finish.
• Position the rack against the wall and mark the drilling locations for anchors or studs. Install the mounting rails to the desired depth, ensuring they are plumb and aligned with the rack body. Use Level to confirm accuracy before tightening hardware.
• Attach the main cabinet to the wall as per the manufacturer’s instructions, securing the frame firmly to the wall using appropriate anchors. Verify the cabinet is square and stable, with no flex when applying light pressure to the sides.
• Route and dress cables through the side channels and behind panels, taking advantage of the wide dressing space. Organize cables by function (power, data, AV) and label each group for easy future maintenance. Confirm that cabling does not impede doors or ventilation paths and that bend radii meet manufacturer recommendations.
• Install rack-mount equipment using standard 19-inch mounting rails. Re-check the overall alignment, ensure door operation is smooth, and test cable connectivity. Perform a final cleanliness check to remove stray ties or debris, and ensure airflow paths remain unobstructed for optimal cooling.

Frequently asked questions

• What makes the Wide SR Series Rack SR28-46-32 different from standard SR racks? The Wide SR Series offers expanded width to provide generous dressing space on both sides, improving cabling management, reducing strain on cables, and enhancing airflow for better thermal performance in compact wall installations.
• Is this rack compatible with standard 19-inch equipment? Yes. It is designed to accommodate standard 19-inch rack-mount devices and accessories within the SR Series family, providing a cohesive fit with other SR components.
• Can I access cabling easily after installation? Yes. The design includes pivot and side-dressing features that give quick, front-access to rear cabling while maintaining a clean, professional appearance.
• How does it help with cable management? The extra width creates ample dressing space, built-in cable channels, and versatile access to route, bundle, and label high-density cabling with minimal bend radius, reducing cross-talk and improving serviceability.
• What about cooling and ventilation? Perforated doors and vented panels are designed to promote airflow, helping maintain optimal equipment temperatures in tight wall-rack installations and contributing to quieter operation.
