Middle Atlantic Cnsl Visionline MED AIR S - LH-VLCMHS

Middle Atlantic LH-VLCMHS VisionLine Medium Command and Control Console

Overview

The Middle Atlantic LH-VLCMHS is a 24/7 command-and-control console purpose-built for security operations centers, dispatch environments, and network operations centers where operators spend full shifts at the workstation. At 63 inches wide and adjustable from 26 to 47 inches in height, it accommodates seated and standing operators without reconfiguration — a meaningful ergonomic factor in high-turnover or multi-shift environments. The console is TAA-compliant, making it eligible for federal, state, and municipal procurement where domestic sourcing requirements apply.

Key Features

• 63-Inch Working Width: Provides enough horizontal surface to support multiple monitor arms, keyboards, and ancillary gear side-by-side — eliminating the cramped, stacked configurations that force operators to turn away from primary displays. For multi-screen surveillance workstation deployments, this width is a practical floor, not a luxury.
• 26–47 Inch Height Adjustment: Full sit-stand range covers the fifth through ninety-fifth percentile of operator height without tools. In multi-shift control rooms where operators rotate every 8–12 hours, this prevents the cumulative ergonomic complaints that follow fixed-height furniture installations.
• 250 lb Weight Capacity: Rated to hold 250 lbs (113.4 kg) of equipment across the worksurface — enough to support a full complement of monitors, a rack-mount UPS, and peripherals without stressing the frame. Note the console itself ships at 253 lbs (114.8 kg), so account for that in freight planning and floor load calculations.
• 6 RU Integrated Rack Space: Six rack units of integrated equipment mounting keeps signal processors, KVM switches, or patch panels at the operator position rather than in a remote rack room — reducing cable runs and keeping maintenance access local. Pair with a rack power management unit to handle PDU and surge needs within the same footprint.
• 19-Inch Usable Depth (48.3 cm): Standard 19-inch rack depth accepts full-depth 1U/2U equipment without modification. The 39-inch overall console depth provides rear service clearance while keeping the operator's primary work zone at a comfortable reach distance.
• TAA Compliant: Verified TAA compliance supports GSA Schedule purchases and federal agency deployments where the Trade Agreements Act restricts country of origin. Confirm with your contracting officer if specific end-user certificate documentation is required.
• Black/Silver/Gray Frame with White Worksurface: The two-tone finish is standard in federal operations and public safety environments — the white worksurface reflects ambient light to reduce eye strain under overhead lighting, while the frame blends with rack and equipment finishes common in professional control rooms. Consult a control room furniture guide to plan monitor arm and cable management configurations around this footprint.

Integration and Compatibility

The LH-VLCMHS (often searched as LH VLCMHS) is designed within the Lund Halsey VisionLine platform, which supports modular expansion with compatible monitor mounting, cable management, and task lighting accessories from the same product family. The 6 RU bay accepts standard EIA-310 rack equipment. Height adjustment mechanism specifics — motorized vs. manual — are not confirmed in available evidence; verify with Middle Atlantic pre-sales before specifying for ADA compliance planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the LH-VLCMHS TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The LH-VLCMHS is confirmed TAA compliant, making it eligible for federal, state, and municipal procurement governed by Trade Agreements Act requirements.

Q: What is the weight capacity of the LH-VLCMHS?

A: The worksurface is rated for 250 lbs (113.4 kg) of equipment. Note that the console itself weighs 253 lbs (114.8 kg) — factor both into freight and floor load planning.

Q: What is the height adjustment range on this console?

A: The LH-VLCMHS adjusts from 26 inches to 47 inches, covering a full sit-stand range suitable for most operator heights without requiring tools or reconfiguration between shifts.

Q: How much rack space does the LH-VLCMHS include?

A: The console includes 6 RU of integrated rack space with a 19-inch (48.3 cm) usable depth, accepting standard EIA-310 rack equipment.

Q: How wide is the LH-VLCMHS console?

A: The console is 63 inches (160 cm) wide, providing sufficient surface for multi-monitor deployments, keyboards, and ancillary operator equipment.

The LH-VLCMHS sits at the serious end of the VisionLine platform — 63 inches wide, rated for 250 lbs of gear, and height-adjustable across a 26–47 inch range. For a multi-shift federal or municipal SOC, those three numbers together matter more than any single feature: width determines how many screens you can mount without forcing operators to crane their necks, load rating determines what you can actually bolt down, and the height range determines whether you're budgeting for a second furniture purchase when your ADA accommodation request comes in.

Technical Highlights:

• 6 RU Integrated Rack (19-in usable depth): Full-depth 1U/2U equipment mounts at the operator station — KVM switches, audio processors, and local patch panels stay accessible without a separate rack room visit. That 19-inch (48.3 cm) usable depth is the real spec to validate against your equipment list before ordering.
• 250 lb Worksurface Capacity: Enough margin for four large monitors, a rack-mount UPS, and peripherals simultaneously. Many comparable consoles rate to 150–180 lbs — this one won't require a reconfiguration when you add a fifth display six months post-install.
• TAA Compliance: Confirmed for GSA Schedule and federal end-user procurements. Saves a sourcing cycle when the contracting officer asks — the documentation trail starts with the manufacturer spec sheet, not a reseller assertion.

Deployment Considerations:

• At 253 lbs (114.8 kg) shipping weight, plan for a two-person installation minimum and verify elevator and doorway clearances on the receiving end before the freight truck arrives — this is not a one-person setup.
• Height adjustment mechanism type (motorized vs. manual crank) is not confirmed in available evidence — verify with Middle Atlantic pre-sales if your deployment requires a specific actuation method for ADA compliance or duty-cycle reasons.

The LH-VLCMHS is the right call for a federal operations center or 24/7 public safety dispatch environment where TAA compliance is non-negotiable, operators rotate across shifts of varying heights, and the equipment load at the workstation exceeds what lighter-duty consoles can handle without frame flex or surface sag.
