Middle Atlantic LH Cnsl Xtype LG S - LH-XTCLS

Middle Atlantic LH-XTCLS X-Type Broadcast Console Workstation

The Middle Atlantic LH-XTCLS is a large-format, X-type broadcast console designed for operations centers, security command rooms, and broadcast facilities that need a purpose-built, structurally serious workstation for multi-display operator positions. At 83 inches wide, 29 inches tall, and 39.4 inches deep, with a product weight of 538 lbs, this is not a general-purpose desk — it is a rack-integrated console engineered to anchor a permanent operator position around up to three mounted displays and 9U of integrated rack capacity. If you are specifying furniture for a new security operations center or broadcast control room, the LH-XTCLS is worth a close look at this size tier.

Key Features

• 83-Inch Width (210.8 cm): At 83 inches across, this console comfortably supports a three-operator or wide single-operator position without crowding monitors or peripheral equipment. That width is the fundamental reason to specify the LH-XTCLS over a smaller console — you get genuine elbow room and sight lines across all three display zones.
• 9 Rack Units of Integrated Capacity: Nine RU of cage nut rail space is built directly into the console frame, letting you mount patch panels, KVM switches, or compact network gear at the operator position rather than running long cable runs back to a separate rack room. Rack accessories such as blanks, shelves, and cable management panels mount directly to these rails without adapter hardware.
• Three-Display Monitor Mounting: The console is engineered to support three monitors simultaneously. For a security operations center, that means one display per primary camera feed group, or primary/secondary/map layouts — without bolting on aftermarket monitor arms to a desk that was not built for the load.
• Cage Nut Rail System: Standard cage nut rails mean you can populate the 9U rack space with any EIA-standard equipment you already own or plan to purchase — no proprietary fasteners, no special tooling. This keeps your hardware options open across vendors and simplifies future reconfigurations.
• 29-Inch Fixed Working Height: At 29 inches, the worksurface sits at a standard seated desk height. There is no electric lift mechanism and the height is not adjustable — this is a fixed installation. Factor that into your ergonomic planning; if sit-stand capability is a requirement, the LH-XTCLS is the wrong model.
• 538-lb Structural Weight: The 538-lb product weight (244 kg) reflects a steel-intensive frame construction capable of supporting the combined load of three large displays, rack-mounted equipment, and operator peripherals without flex or vibration. For 24/7 operations environments, that structural rigidity matters more than it does in a conference room.
• Ships Flat: The console ships flat-packed, which means it can transit through standard building corridors and elevator bays that a pre-assembled unit of this size (83 inches wide) could not. Assembly on-site is required — plan labor time accordingly, and verify you have the ceiling clearance and door widths for the assembled dimensions before delivery.
• TAA-Compliant: The LH-XTCLS carries TAA compliance, making it eligible for federal, state, and local government procurement vehicles. Country of origin is the United Kingdom for Federal Ops purposes. If your project is subject to TAA requirements, this unit qualifies — verify against your specific contract vehicle requirements as always.
• Black/Silver/Gray Frame with White Worksurface: The two-tone finish (black/silver/gray structural frame, white worksurface) is a deliberate design choice for professional operations consoles — the lighter worksurface reduces eye strain under display glare during extended shifts, while the darker frame recedes visually in a dimmed control room environment.

Integration and Compatibility

The LH-XTCLS integrates into a standard security operations or broadcast control room infrastructure via its cage nut rack rails — any EIA 19-inch equipment fits without modification. The 9U rack bay is sized for patch panels, KVM units, compact managed switches, or UPS equipment depending on your operator position requirements. Monitor mounting is built in for three displays; display arm or bracket hardware (sold separately) should be specified to match your monitor VESA patterns and weight ratings. For IP camera deployments feeding into an operations center, pair this console with the appropriate NVR or VMS server rack positioned nearby to keep cable runs manageable. The LH-XTCLS (also searched as LH XTCLS) is manufactured in the United Kingdom and is available internationally, which is relevant for multi-site enterprise deployments where consistent console specifications across global locations matter. Review your control room furniture selection guide considerations before finalizing console dimensions against your room layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the LH-XTCLS TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The LH-XTCLS is TAA compliant, with a Federal Ops country of origin of the United Kingdom. It is eligible for government procurement vehicles subject to TAA requirements — verify against your specific contract vehicle as needed.

Q: How many monitors can the LH-XTCLS support?

A: The LH-XTCLS is engineered for three displays. Monitor mounting is built into the console structure — display arm or bracket hardware should be specified separately to match your monitors' VESA patterns and weight.

Q: Does the LH-XTCLS have height adjustment or an electric lift?

A: No. The LH-XTCLS is a fixed-height console at 29 inches (73.7 cm). There is no electric lift and the height is not adjustable. If sit-stand capability is required, a different model in the Lund Halsey X-Type line should be evaluated.

Q: What type of rack rails does the LH-XTCLS use?

A: The LH-XTCLS uses standard cage nut rails, compatible with any EIA 19-inch rack-mount equipment. No proprietary fasteners are required. Total integrated rack capacity is 9U.

Q: Does the LH-XTCLS ship assembled?

A: No — the LH-XTCLS ships flat. On-site assembly is required. Plan for assembly labor and verify that your building's corridors, doorways, and elevator dimensions can accommodate the assembled console (83 inches wide, 39.4 inches deep, 29 inches tall) prior to delivery scheduling.

Q: Is the LH-XTCLS available for international orders?

A: Yes. The LH-XTCLS is listed as available internationally, which is relevant for enterprise organizations standardizing console specifications across multiple global facilities.

Eden Phillips

The LH-XTCLS is one of the largest fixed consoles in the Lund Halsey X-Type line — 83 inches wide and 538 lbs assembled. When I spec this unit for a security operations center, the conversation always starts with the room: can you get it in, can you assemble it on-site, and is the floor rated for the load? Those three questions come before any discussion of monitor count or rack capacity.

Technical Highlights:

• 9U Cage Nut Rails: Nine rack units with standard cage nut mounting means you can drop in a patch panel, KVM, or compact switch at the operator position without custom hardware — keeps the SOC wiring clean and equipment accessible at the seat.
• 3-Display Mounting Structure: Monitor mounting for three displays is engineered into the frame, not bolted on as an aftermarket addition. That matters for long-term structural integrity when you have 24/7 operator use over a multi-year deployment cycle.
• TAA Compliance: Federal Ops country of origin is the United Kingdom. For government or government-contractor SOC projects with TAA requirements, the LH-XTCLS qualifies — one less line item to resolve during procurement.

Deployment Considerations:

• Ships flat — assembly is required on-site. For large installations with multiple consoles, build assembly labor into your project schedule. The assembled width of 83 inches will not fit through a standard 36-inch doorway without disassembly.
• Fixed at 29 inches with no electric lift and no height adjustment. If the operations center is a shared-shift environment with operators of varying heights, ergonomic accommodations (chair height, footrest) need to be addressed at the seating layer, not at the console.

The LH-XTCLS is the right specification for a permanent, high-density three-operator or wide single-operator SOC position where structural rigidity, integrated rack access, and TAA compliance all matter — particularly government security operations centers or broadcast master control rooms with fixed shift staffing.
