Middle Atlantic 3-FOOT Express On-floor Extender - XPO3E-SV

Middle Atlantic XPO3E-SV 3-Foot On-Floor Raceway Extender

Overview

The Middle Atlantic XPO3E-SV is a 3-foot (0.9 m) silver on-floor raceway extender designed to lengthen Express On-Floor cable management runs in commercial AV, security, and network infrastructure deployments. At 7.125 inches wide and just 0.875 inches tall, it sits low to the floor to minimize trip hazards while keeping cabling organized and protected across open floor paths. TAA compliance makes it a viable option for government, federal, and public-sector projects where trade agreement requirements apply. If you're routing cable management across a room without wall or ceiling runs, this extender adds exactly 3 feet to an existing Express On-Floor system — no cutting, no guesswork.

Key Features

• 3 ft (0.9 m) length: Adds a precise, standardized segment to your floor raceway layout — useful when your cable path falls just short of reaching a rack, desk, or wall outlet without splicing or custom-cutting.
• 7.125 in width: Wide enough to accommodate multiple cables side-by-side — power, data, and low-voltage signal runs can share the same raceway without forced bundling that degrades airflow or cable bend radius.
• 0.875 in profile: The low-clearance design reduces tripping risk in occupied spaces like conference rooms, control rooms, and open office areas where foot traffic crosses the cable path.
• Silver finish: Matches standard Middle Atlantic Express On-Floor system components for a consistent, professional appearance in finished environments.
• TAA Compliant: Meets Trade Agreements Act requirements — qualifying this extender for government contracts, GSA schedules, and public-sector bids where country-of-origin compliance is verified at the line-item level.
• Raceway track type: Designed to integrate with the Express On-Floor raceway and cord cover system — not a standalone product. Pair with the base channel, cover, and end caps from the same product family for a complete installation.

Integration and Compatibility

The XPO3E-SV is a component within Middle Atlantic's Express On-Floor system. It functions as a length extender — it requires a compatible base channel and cover from the same family to form a closed, protected raceway. It is not designed as a standalone cord cover. For rack and infrastructure deployments where cables must cross open floor space — AV control rooms, security operations centers, temporary event setups — this extender bridges the gap between fixed wall or ceiling runs and floor-level equipment. The silver color is suited for environments where exposed raceway needs to blend with metal rack finishes or light-colored commercial flooring. Confirm compatibility with the specific Express On-Floor base and cover SKUs before ordering; the XPO3E-SV (often searched as XPO3E SV) is part of a modular system where component matching matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Middle Atlantic XPO3E-SV TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The XPO3E-SV is TAA compliant, making it eligible for government contracts, GSA schedules, and federal procurement requiring Trade Agreements Act conformance.

Q: What is the exact length and width of the XPO3E-SV?

A: The XPO3E-SV measures 3 feet (0.9 m) in length and 7.125 inches in width, with a profile height of 0.875 inches.

Q: Can the XPO3E-SV be used as a standalone cord cover?

A: No. The XPO3E-SV is a raceway extender designed to work within the Middle Atlantic Express On-Floor system. It requires compatible base channel and cover components from the same product family to function as a complete, closed raceway.

Q: What color is the XPO3E-SV?

A: The XPO3E-SV is silver, matching other Express On-Floor system components for a consistent appearance in finished commercial environments.

Q: Is the XPO3E-SV appropriate for government or public-sector projects?

A: Yes. TAA compliance is verified for this SKU, which satisfies the country-of-origin requirements common in federal, state, and local government procurement.

James Everett

The XPO3E-SV earns its place in commercial installs specifically because of its 0.875-inch floor profile — in occupied spaces like boardrooms or SOC floors, that low clearance is the difference between a clean, code-friendly run and a trip-hazard complaint from facilities. It's a small spec, but it matters in finished environments where you can't anchor anything to the wall or ceiling.

Technical Highlights:

• 3 ft modular length: Standardized segments simplify layout planning — you're stacking known increments, not measuring and cutting custom lengths on-site, which cuts installation time on multi-segment runs.
• 7.125 in channel width: Enough interior space to route separate power and data cables without forcing them into a single bundle — important for maintaining signal integrity and meeting low-voltage separation requirements in commercial builds.
• TAA compliance: Verified at the SKU level for the XPO3E-SV, so you can include it on government bids without needing to chase down a compliance letter mid-procurement.

Deployment Considerations:

• This is a system component, not a standalone product — verify you have the correct Express On-Floor base channel and cover before placing the order. The extender alone does not form a closed raceway.
• Silver finish matches the standard Express On-Floor palette, but if your environment uses black raceways (common in broadcast and live-event setups), confirm the correct color SKU before ordering — finishing mismatches are a frequent callback on otherwise clean installs.

Best fit for government facilities, corporate AV buildouts, and security operations centers where TAA compliance is a contract requirement and floor-level cable routing needs to stay low-profile in occupied spaces.
