Middle Atlantic Rackmount 19IN Black W/3 - J06B0B

Middle Atlantic J06B0B 19-Inch Rackmount Power Strip

Overview

The Middle Atlantic J06B0B is a 19-inch rackmount power strip designed for structured rack enclosures in security, AV, and IT infrastructure deployments. If you're building out a rack-based surveillance head-end, access control panel enclosure, or AV distribution frame, having reliable, rack-native power distribution at the rear of your cabinet is the baseline — and the J06B0B delivers that in a TAA-compliant package. The 6-foot (1.8 m) cord gives you enough reach to connect to a UPS or floor-mounted PDU without awkward cable routing inside the rack.

Middle Atlantic is a well-regarded name in the rack enclosure and power distribution space — browse the Middle Atlantic catalog for compatible rack enclosures, cable management, and mounting accessories that pair naturally with this unit.

Key Features

• 19-Inch Rack Form Factor: Mounts directly into any standard EIA 19-inch rack rail without adapters. Keeps power distribution organized inside the enclosure rather than running extension cords outside the frame — cleaner install, cleaner audit.
• 6 ft (1.8 m) Power Cord: Provides enough cord length to reach a rack-mounted UPS or a wall outlet behind a shallow rack without pulling tension on the connector. At 1.8 m, it works in most equipment room layouts without requiring an extension.
• TAA Compliant: The J06B0B meets Trade Agreements Act requirements — a mandatory checkbox for federal, state, and municipal projects, as well as many DoD and GSA-schedule integrations. If your project involves government end-users, this compliance status removes a procurement obstacle before it becomes one.
• Black Finish: The black colorway integrates cleanly into most rack enclosures without standing out. Minor point for consumer gear, but relevant for customer-facing installs or executive briefing rooms where rack aesthetics matter.

Integration and Compatibility

The J06B0B is designed to fit standard 19-inch EIA rack enclosures — the same mounting standard used across rackmount enclosures, patch panels, and 1U/2U network gear. It's a natural fit alongside NVRs, PoE network switches, and access control servers in a consolidated security rack. Pair it with a rack-mounted UPS for battery-backed power delivery to your critical surveillance and access control equipment. For PoE switch and NVR selection guidance, see the network video recorder category and PoE switch options to complete the rack build.

If your deployment involves government procurement or a federally-funded project, the TAA compliance status documented for this SKU satisfies the country-of-origin requirements without additional paperwork from your end.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Middle Atlantic J06B0B TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The J06B0B is confirmed TAA compliant, making it suitable for federal, state, and municipal procurement under GSA schedule and similar government contracting vehicles.

Q: What is the cord length on the J06B0B?

A: The J06B0B ships with a 6 ft (1.8 m) power cord — sufficient for most rack-to-UPS or rack-to-outlet runs without requiring an extension cord.

Q: Will the J06B0B fit in a standard rack?

A: Yes. It is designed for standard 19-inch EIA rackmount enclosures, the universal rack standard used across IT, AV, and security equipment rooms.

Q: What finish does the J06B0B come in?

A: The J06B0B is finished in black, consistent with most commercial rack enclosure interiors.

The J06B0B is one of those line items that appears on nearly every rack-build BOM I put together for government-adjacent security integrations — specifically because the TAA compliance checkbox is confirmed at the SKU level, not assumed. On federal and municipal projects, that distinction matters at contract review time.

Technical Highlights:

• TAA Compliance: Verified at the SKU level for the J06B0B — removes a common procurement blocker on government, GSA, and DoD-adjacent rack builds without requiring additional country-of-origin documentation.
• 6 ft Cord: At 1.8 m, the cord handles the vertical run from a mid-rack position down to a floor-standing UPS or out to a wall outlet behind the rack — avoids the common trap of specifying a short-cord PDU that won't reach your UPS without an extension.
• 19-Inch Rackmount Format: Integrates into the same EIA standard as every switch, NVR, and patch panel in the rack — no brackets, no adapters, no improvised mounting.

Deployment Considerations:

• Verify rack unit availability before ordering — the J06B0B occupies rack space like any other 1U device, and dense security racks (NVR + PoE switch + access control server) fill up quickly.
• Evidence does not confirm amperage rating or outlet count from the manufacturer source — confirm the load capacity against your connected device draw before finalizing the BOM, particularly if you're powering high-draw PoE switches or multi-drive NVRs from the same strip.

The J06B0B is the right call for government facility rack builds — courthouses, municipal operations centers, transit authority head-ends — where TAA compliance is a hard procurement requirement and the 6 ft cord gives you layout flexibility without improvised cable runs.
