Middle Atlantic C3TECHKIT4-SO 4RU Slide-Out Rack Kit for C3 Credenza

Overview

The Middle Atlantic C3TECHKIT4-SO is a 4RU slide-out rack kit engineered for deployment inside Middle Atlantic C3-series credenza enclosures. It delivers a fully accessible equipment drawer rated at 75 lbs (34 kg) — enough for a compact NVR, AV receiver, or dense patch shelf — without requiring the credenza to be relocated for service access. The slide-out mechanism lets integrators pull the rack forward for rear-cable access and maintenance, which matters in furniture-integrated AV and security deployments where the back of the credenza sits against a wall. The C3TECHKIT4-SO also integrates a 50 CFM, 15-amp ventilation system, removing heat from enclosed rack gear that would otherwise throttle or fail in a sealed wood furniture cavity. This is the correct choice when you need rackmount density inside a finished-furniture format — think conference rooms, executive offices, and reception areas where exposed rack infrastructure is not acceptable. For open rack enclosures or dedicated equipment rooms, a standard open-frame or vented rack is more appropriate. See the full Middle Atlantic accessory catalog for compatible credenza options.

Compatibility

The C3TECHKIT4-SO is designed exclusively for Middle Atlantic C3-series credenza enclosures. Verify your credenza model against Middle Atlantic's C3 accessory compatibility matrix before ordering — this kit is not a universal fit for non-C3 furniture or third-party credenzas. The 4RU rack space accommodates standard 19-inch rackmount equipment up to 75 lbs total shelf load. For deeper or heavier equipment, confirm the C3 chassis depth and floor weight rating before specifying. Pairs naturally with network video recorders, media converters, or managed PoE switches in distributed security and AV-over-IP deployments.

Installation Notes

The kit ships at 16 lbs (7.3 kg); factor the loaded weight (up to 75 lbs equipment + kit weight) when assessing the credenza's floor support. The 15-amp ventilation circuit requires a compatible power connection within the C3 enclosure — confirm available amperage on the credenza's internal power strip before adding additional loads. Material is steel throughout. Not rated for international use per manufacturer specifications.
