Middle Atlantic 16 Space (28IN. ) Sectional Wallrack 20IN. Deep DWR Series Steel - DWR-16-22

Middle Atlantic DWR-16-22 16RU Pivoting Wall Rack

Overview

The Middle Atlantic DWR-16-22 is a 16-space (16 RU) pivoting wall rack built for equipment rooms, backrooms, and telecom closets where floor space is constrained but rack density matters. At 20 inches of usable depth and a 200 lb UL-rated load capacity, the DWR-16-22 accommodates standard 1U–4U AV and security gear — NVRs, patch panels, PoE switches, uninterruptible power supplies — without requiring a dedicated equipment room. The pivoting design is the operational differentiator: the rack swings away from the wall for rear-panel access, eliminating the need to dismount equipment for cabling or service. Fabricated from steel with a black wrinkle powder coat finish, it is TAA-compliant and seismically rated, making it suitable for both government installations and deployments in seismic zones. Country of origin is USA.

Compatibility

The DWR-16-22 accepts standard 19-inch rackmount equipment up to 20 inches deep. Forward rackrail configuration supports 1U through 16U equipment loaded from the front. Compatible with Middle Atlantic's DWR series accessories and panel kits. Works with any EIA-310-compliant 19-inch rackmount gear: network video recorders, managed PoE switches, fiber patch panels, rackmount UPS units, KVM switches, and similar network video recorders and networking hardware. The 'Forward Compatible' designation confirms this unit accepts current and future Middle Atlantic Middle Atlantic rack accessories within the DWR ecosystem. Verify equipment depth against the 20-inch usable depth before specifying — gear with rear-cable management arms or deep power supplies may require confirmation of fit.

Installation Notes

Overall unit dimensions are 23.4 in wide × 35.06 in tall × 22 in deep (including the pivot mechanism). Usable rack height is 28 inches (16 RU). Plan wall-stud or concrete anchor placement for the full shipping assembly — the unit ships at 101.8 lbs, and installed weight with a full 200 lb load must be transferred to structural backing, not drywall alone. The pivot swing radius requires clearance in front of and to the side of the installed position; verify clearance before final anchor placement. No front door is included; add a compatible Middle Atlantic door accessory if the install requires a wall mount rack enclosure. Seismic rating (Patent No. 7278183) is relevant for California Title 24 and similar code jurisdictions.
