Middle Atlantic VRK-44-42HLRD 44U 42-Inch Deep Videorack Floor Stand
Overview
The Middle Atlantic VRK-44-42HLRD is a 44-rack-unit open-frame floor-standing rack built for broadcast, surveillance control rooms, and AV equipment installations where full-depth recorders, servers, or multi-unit NVR stacks demand real estate. At 42 inches total depth (39.5 inches usable), VRK-44-42HLRD accommodates deep chassis that standard 24-inch racks cannot — think 4U NVRs with rear cable management still intact. The 83.14-inch overall height with 77 inches of usable rack space (the full 44 RU) means you lose nothing to non-mounting structure. Textured black powder-coat finish handles the wear of a working machine room. TAA-compliant and manufactured in the USA, making it eligible for federal and government projects subject to Trade Agreements Act requirements.
Compatibility
Mounts any 19-inch rackmount equipment using standard 10-32 threaded rail — compatible with Middle Atlantic network video recorders, servers, KVM switches, patch panels, UPS units, and other full-depth AV or security appliances. The 39.5-inch usable depth suits chassis up to approximately 35–37 inches (allowing rear cable clearance). Gangable design allows side-by-side pairing with additional VRK-series or compatible Middle Atlantic server rack enclosures to expand capacity without reconfiguring the room layout. ASCE 7-10 seismic rating applies — verify local code requirements for anchoring in seismic zones. No rear door is included; installations requiring rear access restriction will need a separately sourced rack accessory door panel.
Installation Notes
Shipping weight is 197 lbs (89.4 kg) — plan for two-person delivery and positioning before loading equipment. Width is 22 inches overall; confirm aisle width and floor tile cutout dimensions before installation in raised-floor data center environments. 10-32 rail hardware is standard; cage nuts are not required. Seismic compliance per ASCE 7-10 requires proper floor anchoring — consult local structural requirements for the applicable seismic design category.
