Middle Atlantic FAN Panel 100 CFM 27DB Cooling Panel with Thermostatic Control; 100 CFM - UQFP-4

Middle Atlantic UQFP-4 2U Rack Fan Panel with Thermostatic Control

Overview

The Middle Atlantic UQFP-4 is a 2U, 100 CFM active fan panel designed to manage heat buildup inside standard 19-inch equipment racks. If you're running NVRs, switches, or dense AV gear in enclosed rack enclosures without adequate airflow, thermal throttling and premature hardware failure are real risks — the UQFP-4 addresses that directly. It draws 5 VDC and accepts 120V AC input, making it straightforward to wire into any standard rack power strip. The 27 dB noise rating keeps it usable in noise-sensitive environments like reception areas or small control rooms. This is a rack-mount accessory, not a standalone device — it occupies 2 rack units and is engineered to integrate into Middle Atlantic rack enclosures and compatible 19-inch frames.

Compatibility

Fits any standard 19-inch rack enclosure with open front or rear panel space. Designed to pair with Middle Atlantic rack cabinets and frames — including the BGR, ERK, ERE, and similar fixed and open-frame series. Works alongside passive ventilation kits, rack shelves, and PDUs from the same family. If you're building a security head-end with network video recorders or stacked PoE switches in a closed rack, this panel drops in to force airflow and reduce ambient temps without requiring a dedicated HVAC solution. Two mounting points align with standard rack rail spacing. Finish is black brushed and anodized — consistent with Middle Atlantic's standard rack aesthetics. Not rated for international voltage (120V AC only — no 240V support).

Installation Notes

Occupies exactly 2U (3.5 in height, 19 in width, 3.4 in depth). Depth of 3.4 inches is shallow enough for most mid-depth rack configurations, but verify clearance behind the panel rail before ordering in tight enclosures. Power type is DC (5 VDC output); AC input is 120V — wire to a rack-mount PDU or standard outlet. Not TAA compliant — confirm procurement requirements before specifying on government or federal contracts. Thermistor is not present; thermal control is handled via the panel's built-in thermostatic circuit. Shipping weight is 4.8 lbs. Compatible with standard rack power distribution configurations.
