Middle Atlantic Narrow 48IN Gray W/10 5- - 4810ULBC20R

Middle Atlantic 4810ULBC20R CabinetMate Plug-In Outlet Center

Overview

The Middle Atlantic 4810ULBC20R is a narrow, 48-inch rack-mount outlet center designed for AV and security equipment cabinets where clean power distribution and TAA compliance are non-negotiable. At 20 amps, it handles the combined draw of multiple rack-mounted devices — NVRs, switches, amplifiers, or access control panels — without requiring a dedicated high-amperage circuit upgrade in most commercial installations. If you're specifying power for a government contract or any procurement governed by the Trade Agreements Act, the TAA-compliant status of the 4810ULBC20R removes a common RFP obstacle before it becomes a problem.

Key Features

• 20-Amp Capacity: Supports heavier combined device loads than standard 15A strips — relevant when a single rack hosts an NVR, PoE switch, and server in the same enclosure. Confirm your branch circuit is 20A-rated before specifying.
• 6 ft (1.8 m) Cord Length: Provides enough reach to connect to a floor-level PDU or wall outlet without extension cords, keeping the installation code-compliant and the cabinet interior tidy. Installations where the nearest outlet is farther than 6 ft will need a different approach.
• TAA Compliant: Meets Trade Agreements Act requirements, making this unit eligible for U.S. federal, state, and municipal procurement contracts where country-of-origin restrictions apply. If your project is commercial-only with no government purchasing requirements, this distinction doesn't change anything for you — but it's there if you need it.
• Narrow 48-Inch Form Factor: Fits standard rack enclosures without consuming additional horizontal space. The narrow profile is the right choice when rack density is high and every unit of horizontal clearance matters.
• Gray Finish: Matches standard rack cabinet interiors — a minor point, but relevant in installations where cabinet aesthetics are part of the project specification.

Integration & Compatibility

The 4810ULBC20R is built for Middle Atlantic rack and cabinet systems but will integrate into any standard 19-inch rack enclosure that accommodates the unit's depth and mounting pattern. Pair it with a PoE switch or NVR on the same rack for a consolidated, single-circuit power solution. For deployments with higher power demands or requiring surge protection and remote monitoring, review the broader Middle Atlantic power management catalog for rack PDU options with those capabilities — this unit is a plug-in outlet center, not a managed PDU.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the 4810ULBC20R TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The 4810ULBC20R carries TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance, making it eligible for U.S. federal and government procurement contracts with country-of-origin requirements.

Q: What amperage does the 4810ULBC20R support?

A: The 4810ULBC20R is rated for 20 amps. Ensure your branch circuit is also 20A-rated to take full advantage of this capacity.

Q: How long is the power cord on the 4810ULBC20R?

A: The cord is 6 ft (1.8 m), sufficient for most rack-to-outlet distances in a standard equipment room or server closet.

Q: Will the 4810ULBC20R fit in a standard 19-inch rack?

A: Yes. The narrow 48-inch form factor is designed for standard rack enclosures. Verify the unit's depth against your specific cabinet before ordering.

Q: Does the 4810ULBC20R include surge protection or remote monitoring?

A: Based on available specifications, the 4810ULBC20R is a plug-in outlet center. Surge protection and remote monitoring capabilities are not confirmed in the product documentation for this model. If those features are required, consult the Middle Atlantic managed PDU line.

The 4810ULBC20R is a straightforward 20-amp outlet center — and straightforward is exactly what you want when you're wiring up a security or AV rack and don't need the overhead of a managed PDU. The TAA-compliant rating is the spec that drives most of our government and municipal integrators toward this unit specifically rather than a generic strip.

Technical Highlights:

• 20A Rating: Gives you headroom above a standard 15A strip — meaningful when a single rack consolidates an NVR, managed switch, and access control hardware drawing simultaneous load.
• 6 ft Cord: Sized for standard rack-to-outlet distances without requiring an extension, which keeps you on the right side of electrical code in most jurisdictions.
• TAA Compliance: Satisfies country-of-origin requirements on government contracts without requiring a substitution mid-project — a real time-saver during procurement review.

Deployment Considerations:

• The 20A capacity is only useful if the branch circuit feeding the rack is also 20A — verify the panel and receptacle before specifying this unit on a new installation.
• This is a plug-in outlet center, not a managed PDU. If the project requires per-outlet switching, surge protection, or SNMP monitoring, the 4810ULBC20R is the wrong tool — step up to a managed rack PDU in the Middle Atlantic line.

Best fit: government-contract security rack builds — surveillance closets, access control head-end panels, municipal dispatch centers — where TAA compliance is a procurement hard requirement and a clean, high-capacity power strip is all the power management the design calls for.
