Middle Atlantic UMSFP1-1/2 1 RU Rack Filler Panel
Overview
The Middle Atlantic UMSFP1-1/2 is a 1 RU rack filler panel designed to cover unused rack space, providing a clean, finished appearance for your 19-inch equipment racks. This panel is essential for maintaining proper airflow within the rack by preventing air recirculation through empty slots, which is critical for cooling sensitive electronics like network switches, NVRs, or servers. Its 0.5-inch width is specifically intended for smaller gaps, ensuring a tidy installation. The UMSFP1-1/2 is built for professional AV and IT environments where aesthetics and thermal management are equally important.
Compatibility
This filler panel is designed for standard 19-inch EIA-310 rack systems. Its 1 RU height (1.67 inches) ensures it fits seamlessly with other rack-mounted equipment. While not specific to any particular brand of rack or equipment, it's commonly used to fill small gaps in racks housing components from brands like Ubiquiti, Cisco, Dell, HP, Middle Atlantic, and others where precise space management is required.
Installation Notes
Installation involves securing the panel to the front of the rack uprights using standard rack screws (not included). The panel's thin profile means it occupies minimal depth, allowing for easy installation without interfering with rear-mounted equipment or cable management. Ensure the rack is properly grounded before installation.
