Middle Atlantic 25SP 32DEEP Plexi Door & Black TOP - BGR-25SA32MDK-A5

Middle Atlantic BGR-25SA32MDK-A5 25RU Mobile AV Rack with Plexi Door and Black Top

Overview

The Middle Atlantic BGR-25SA32MDK-A5 is a 25-rack-unit mobile AV enclosure built for demanding AV integration, security operations, and broadcast environments where you need substantial load capacity, full front-and-rear access, and the flexibility to roll equipment to where it's needed. At 1,100 lbs UL-rated load capacity across 29.4 inches of usable depth, this is not a light-duty presenter cart — it's a full-depth production rack designed to carry amplifiers, matrix switchers, NVRs, servers, or dense patch fields without compromise. BGR-25SA32MDK-A5 (often searched as BGR 25SA32MDK A5) ships USA-manufactured and is TAA compliant, which satisfies federal and government procurement requirements out of the box.

Key Features

• 25 RU / 43.75 in Usable Height: Twenty-five rack spaces in a 43.75-inch usable column gives you room to stack a full security head-end — NVR, patch panel, UPS, KVM, and spare U's for growth — without stacking two enclosures or sacrificing cable management space.
• 1,100 lb UL-Rated Load Capacity: The UL listing on the 1,100-lb figure is not a marketing claim — it's a tested and certified rating. Dense server or broadcast equipment loads that would flex a budget enclosure sit flat and stable here. At 204 lbs empty, the rack itself is built for that weight class.
• 29.4 in Usable Depth / 36.35 in Total Depth: The 29.4-inch usable depth accommodates full-depth 1U and 2U servers, deep NVR appliances, and long cable runs behind the equipment plane. The extra inches between usable and total depth (roughly 7 inches) provide real rear cable management room — not just a nominal gap.
• Forward Rackrail with Forward-Compatible Design: The forward rackrail positions equipment at the front of the enclosure, which is the correct configuration for rear-cabled equipment. Forward compatibility means you can integrate Middle Atlantic's accessory ecosystem — blanks, shelves, cable managers — without re-engineering the enclosure later.
• Front and Rear Doors with Plexi Front: Plexi front door lets operators visually monitor indicator lights and displays without opening the enclosure — useful in control rooms where you want to keep dust out but need a quick status check. The rear door provides full rear access for cabling without moving the rack.
• 25mm x 150mm Swing Handles: Oversized swing handles are sized for moving a loaded rack with a two-person carry. On a unit that can ship at 229 lbs, handle ergonomics are a real installation consideration.
• Wood Laminate Top with Monitor Mounting: The laminate top doubles as a monitor mounting surface, which is practical for ops centers or control rooms where a local display needs to sit above the rack without a separate furniture piece.
• Black Wrinkle Powder Coat Finish: Wrinkle powder coat hides minor handling marks and hardware room scuffs better than smooth paint — meaningful on a mobile rack that gets repositioned regularly.
• Steel Construction, USA Manufacture: All-steel build with country-of-origin USA satisfies both structural requirements and federal procurement sourcing rules. TAA compliance is verified on this SKU.

Integration and Compatibility

The BGR-25SA32MDK-A5 uses standard 19-inch EIA rack rail spacing (panel width 19 in / 48.3 cm), so any EIA-310 compliant 1U through 10U equipment installs without adapters. The forward rackrail configuration is compatible with Middle Atlantic's BGR accessory line. At 24.5 inches wide externally, verify doorway and aisle clearances before delivery on dense deployments — standard 36-inch doorways provide adequate clearance, but equipment room pass-throughs should be measured. The mobile base accommodates repositioning in finished spaces; for permanent installations, verify whether caster locks meet your facility's seismic or stability requirements.

This enclosure is appropriate for network video recorders, managed network switches, patch panels, and UPS systems in security operations centers, broadcast control rooms, and government facility AV head-ends. For Middle Atlantic rack accessories and enclosure options, the BGR accessory ecosystem covers cable managers, blanks, and shelves compatible with this frame.
