Middle Atlantic 525 Plate Maap Opening - 500-MAAP

Middle Atlantic 500-MAAP 525 Series Rack Faceplate with MAAP Opening

Overview

The Middle Atlantic 500-MAAP is a rack faceplate designed for the 525 Series, providing a dedicated MAAP opening for structured low-voltage cable access inside rack enclosures. If your install requires clean cable entry points without exposed gaps or improvised cutouts, this faceplate slots into a standard rack unit position and keeps the front panel dress consistent across the build. It belongs to the Middle Atlantic rack and enclosure line and targets integrators building out rack accessories for AV, security, and structured cabling deployments where cable management discipline matters.

Compatibility

The 500-MAAP is engineered for Middle Atlantic 525 Series rack enclosures. Confirm your rack chassis is in the 525 Series before ordering — Middle Atlantic's enclosure families use series-specific faceplate dimensions, and cross-series fitment is not guaranteed. If you're specifying faceplates alongside a broader rack build, review Middle Atlantic's rack enclosure catalog to match the chassis series before selecting blanks, faceplates, or panels. For low-voltage security runs specifically — camera power cables, control wiring, and network drops — pairing this with a cable management solution inside the rack keeps the installation organized and serviceable. Integrators building multi-panel rack fronts should confirm faceplate unit height and MAAP opening size against their cable bundle diameter prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Install into a standard rack unit opening within a compatible 525 Series enclosure. The MAAP opening is pre-formed — no field cutting required. Route low-voltage conductors through the opening before securing the faceplate to avoid having to re-thread cables after mounting. Verify the opening clearance accommodates your connector profiles, particularly if running pre-terminated cables with bulky heads.
