Middle Atlantic MFR-1627E0 Floor Standing Rack - 27IN Depth - Biltmore Cherry - TH

Overview

The Middle Atlantic MFR-1627E0 is a 16-rack-unit (RU) floor-standing furniture rack designed for secure and organized deployment of AV and IT equipment. With a 27.37-inch depth and a 250 lb load capacity, it provides substantial space for servers, network switches, and video processing gear in commercial or residential installations. The Biltmore Cherry wood finish offers an aesthetic integration into executive offices or client-facing environments where equipment needs to be concealed yet accessible.

Compatibility

This rack is built for standard 19-inch wide rack-mount equipment. It utilizes 10-32 threaded rack rails, compatible with the vast majority of network, audio-visual, and security surveillance devices. The 16 RU capacity allows for significant equipment density, suitable for mid-sized network closets or AV control rooms. It also features integrated monitor mounting capabilities, simplifying the setup of control stations.

Installation Notes

The rack has a usable depth of 23.19 inches, which must be considered when selecting equipment to ensure proper fit and cable management. The total load capacity is rated at 250 lbs (UL load capacity), requiring careful planning to avoid overloading. The wood construction necessitates placement away from excessive moisture or temperature fluctuations. As a furniture rack, assembly is required, and tools such as a Phillips head screwdriver and potentially a T20 Torx driver (common for rack rails) may be needed.
