Middle Atlantic 1 BAY 24H Seismic RIB SNE 27WX48D - SRB-1-SNE27-4824

Middle Atlantic SRB-1-SNE27-4824 Seismic Riser Base for SNE 27 Wide Rack Systems

Overview

The Middle Atlantic SRB-1-SNE27-4824 is a single-bay seismic riser base engineered specifically for the Middle Atlantic SNE 27 Wide series. Standing 24 inches tall and stretching 48 inches deep, this riser base provides the structural foundation that elevates your rack enclosure to an ergonomic working height while adding critical under-chassis clearance for cable management and airflow routing. Whether you are commissioning a new rack row or retrofitting an existing installation, the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 delivers the fit, finish, and dimensional precision that SNE 27 Wide deployments demand.

Finished in a textured black powder coat, this riser base integrates visually and structurally with the broader rack enclosure lineup. Its 27.63-inch width matches the SNE 27 Wide footprint exactly, eliminating any field-modification guesswork and ensuring a clean, professional installation from day one.

Key Features

• 24-Inch Riser Height: Elevates the SNE 27 Wide enclosure to 24 in (61 cm), providing accessible under-rack space for horizontal cable runs, power distribution entry points, and ground-level airflow intake.
• 48-Inch Depth: Matches the full 48 in (121.9 cm) depth profile of compatible SNE 27 Wide enclosures, ensuring the riser base and cabinet share a flush rear plane with no overhang or gap.
• 27.63-Inch Width: Dimensionally paired to the SNE 27 Wide series at 27.63 in (70.2 cm), delivering a bolt-together fit without field cutting or shimming.
• Single-Bay Configuration: Designed as a one-bay riser base, making it straightforward to deploy individual rack columns or to stage a multi-column row by combining multiple units side by side.
• Textured Black Powder Coat Finish: The durable powder coat surface resists scratches and scuffs in high-traffic equipment rooms, maintaining a consistent appearance across the SNE 27 Wide system.
• SNE 27 Wide Base Series Compatibility: Engineered as a native accessory within the SNE 27 Wide base series, ensuring mounting hole patterns, hardware interfaces, and load paths align with the enclosure's published specifications.
• Substantial Build: At a shipping weight of 101 lbs (45.8 kg), the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 reflects the heavy-gauge steel construction Middle Atlantic applies across its rack infrastructure product family.

Integration & Compatibility

The SRB-1-SNE27-4824 is purpose-built for the Middle Atlantic SNE 27 Wide enclosure series. Before purchasing, confirm your enclosure's depth (48 in) and width (27 Wide) designations match this riser base. Installers working through a rack planning process should account for the 24-inch height addition when calculating total stack height against ceiling clearance or overhead ladder rack positions.

For builds that require additional horizontal support surfaces inside the enclosure, pairing this riser base with compatible rack shelves within the same SNE 27 Wide system provides a consistent structural and aesthetic solution. Consult Middle Atlantic's SNE series configuration documentation to verify all accessory interfaces before finalizing your bill of materials.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What enclosure series is the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 designed to pair with?

A: The SRB-1-SNE27-4824 is designed specifically for Middle Atlantic's SNE 27 Wide series enclosures. The "SNE27" designation in the part number identifies the base series, and the physical dimensions — 27.63 in wide and 48 in deep — correspond directly to that enclosure family.

Q: How much height does this riser base add to my rack installation?

A: The SRB-1-SNE27-4824 adds 24 inches (61 cm) of height beneath your SNE 27 Wide enclosure. Factor this into your total installation height when planning against ceiling clearance, raised floor configurations, or overhead cable management systems.

Q: Is this a multi-bay or single-bay riser base?

A: This is a single-bay (1-bay) riser base. For multi-column rack rows, you would install one SRB-1-SNE27-4824 per enclosure column. Verify bay-count and row-configuration requirements against your site layout before ordering.

Q: What finish does the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 have?

A: The riser base features a textured black powder coat finish, which is consistent with Middle Atlantic's standard equipment room aesthetic and provides durable surface protection in active installation environments.

Q: What is the shipping weight of this riser base?

A: The shipping weight is 101 lbs (45.8 kg). Plan accordingly for freight handling, delivery access, and on-site staging — a two-person lift or mechanical assist is advisable for safe placement.

When I spec the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 into a rack row design, the 24-inch riser height is the number that drives everything else on the drawing. That 24 inches is not just ergonomic lift — it is dedicated infrastructure real estate under the cabinet, and on dense deployments that space fills up faster than most integrators expect with horizontal power feeds, ground bonding runs, and conduit stub-outs.

Technical Highlights:

• 48-Inch Depth Match: The 48 in depth aligns flush with the SNE 27 Wide enclosure's rear plane, which matters for maintaining a clean cable management envelope and keeping the installation within a predictable footprint on raised floors or in tight equipment rooms.
• 27.63-Inch Width Precision: The 27.63 in width is not a round number — it is the exact SNE 27 Wide chassis dimension, and that precision means mounting hardware drops in without shimming or slotted adjustments that would compromise the structural integrity of a seismic-rated install.
• 101-lb Shipping Weight: Heavy-gauge steel at 101 lbs ships ready for the load it will carry. That weight is a reliable proxy for build quality — this is not a stamped-sheet unit that flexes under a loaded enclosure.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm ceiling clearance before committing to the 24-inch riser height — in a standard 9-foot equipment room with a 7-foot enclosure, you are at 31 inches of overhead clearance, which is workable but leaves little room for top-mounted cable management accessories.
• At 101 lbs unloaded, this riser base requires a two-person placement or a mechanical lift; attempting a solo install on a raised floor tile risks both tile damage and personal injury during positioning.

For security operations centers or network equipment rooms where the SNE 27 Wide series forms the backbone of the rack row, the SRB-1-SNE27-4824 is the correct foundation component — it keeps the enclosure at a consistent working height across the row and provides the under-cabinet clearance that high-density power and structured cabling installations need to stay manageable over the life of the deployment.
