Middle Atlantic HR-UMS1-5.5 Half Rack Shelf

Overview

The Middle Atlantic HR-UMS1-5.5 is a 1 RU half-width rack shelf designed to provide stable mounting for AV and IT equipment within standard 19-inch racks. With a depth of 5.5 inches, it offers a compact solution for housing devices that do not require a full-width rack space, such as small network switches, wireless receivers, or specialized control modules. This shelf is ideal for consolidating gear in rack environments where space optimization is critical, like mobile production carts, small server closets, or compact headends.

Compatibility

This rack shelf is designed for use in standard 19-inch rack enclosures. Its 1 RU height and 5.5-inch depth make it compatible with a wide range of rack-mounted equipment that fits within these dimensions. It is suitable for mounting devices that do not have their own rack ears or require a stable platform. Specific compatibility depends on the device's form factor and dimensions, but it is commonly used with components from various AV and IT manufacturers that are designed for rack integration.

Installation Notes

The HR-UMS1-5.5 features two integrated mounting points, allowing for secure attachment of equipment. Its 1.75-inch height consumes a single rack unit (RU) space. The shelf itself is constructed from durable materials to support typical loads for its size. Installation involves securing the shelf to the rack rails using standard rack screws (not included) and then mounting the intended equipment onto the shelf surface.
