Middle Atlantic 2SP(3.5)RACK 16DEEP - RK2

Middle Atlantic RK2 2U Knockdown Wood Rack

Overview

The Middle Atlantic RK2 is a 2U (3.5-inch usable height) knockdown wood rack designed for small AV and security equipment installations where a full steel enclosure would be overkill — think tabletop NVR deployments, small-office AV closets, or low-profile equipment shelves. At 15.41 inches of usable depth and a 200 lb weight capacity, the RK2 handles a full 2U of rack-mount hardware without structural compromise. The black wood grain laminate finish suits installations where the rack may be partially visible. The knockdown design simplifies shipping and on-site assembly compared to welded alternatives. Standard 10-32 threaded rack rails accept the full range of cage nuts and rackmount screws common across rack-mount accessories and equipment.

Compatibility

The RK2 accepts any 19-inch rackmount equipment in a 2U NVR or network appliance form factor — including 1U and 2U units from Hanwha, Hikvision, i-PRO, Axis, and similar manufacturers shipping in standard EIA-310 rack widths. The 10-32 rail threading is the most common standard in commercial rack equipment; cage nut and screw kits sourced for 12-24 or M6 rails will not fit without adapters. Usable depth of 15.41 inches accommodates most compact 1U/2U appliances; verify your equipment's chassis depth before ordering — deeper 1U servers (18+ inches) will not fit. The knockdown wood construction makes this rack unsuitable for permanent wall-mount or stacked configurations; it is a freestanding tabletop unit. For larger deployments requiring 4U or more, consider a higher-rack-unit open-frame or enclosed model within the Middle Atlantic rack line. For multi-rack AV or security head-end rooms, see the broader AV furniture and racks category.

Installation Notes

Assembly follows a knockdown (flat-pack) process — no permanent tools required beyond a screwdriver. Overall assembled dimensions are 20.4 inches wide × 4.98 inches high × 15.91 inches deep; confirm clearance before deployment. Shipping weight is 15.9 lbs. The 200 lb static weight capacity applies to the fully assembled unit on a stable flat surface — do not exceed this limit across both rack units combined.
