Middle Atlantic Rackmount 19IN Black W/3 - J24B0B

Middle Atlantic J24B0B Rackmount Power Strip, 19-Inch Black

Overview

The Middle Atlantic J24B0B is a 19-inch rackmount power strip designed for rack-integrated AV, security, and network equipment installations. Built to Middle Atlantic's commercial-grade standards and sourced factory-new, the J24B0B ships TAA-compliant — a hard requirement for federal, state, and municipal deployments subject to the Trade Agreements Act. The 6-foot (1.8 m) power cord provides enough slack to reach a wall outlet or in-rack PDU without routing strain, whether you're installing in a wall rack, floor rack, or equipment cabinet. For integrators building out Middle Atlantic rack systems or specifying power distribution for rackmount power strips, the J24B0B slots directly into that infrastructure.

Key Features

• TAA Compliance: Government and institutional buyers increasingly mandate TAA-compliant sourcing for all IT and infrastructure purchases. The J24B0B satisfies that requirement out of the box — no substitutions, no exceptions needed at the bid stage. Pair this with a TAA-compliant network switch and you can close a fully compliant rack build.
• 19-Inch Rackmount Form Factor: Designed to mount in any standard 19-inch EIA rack, the J24B0B integrates cleanly alongside network gear, NVRs, and AV equipment without occupying floor space or requiring secondary power mounting brackets. For integrators building out video surveillance or access control racks, dedicated rackmount power keeps wiring organized and load distribution predictable.
• 6-Foot (1.8 m) Power Cord: The 6-foot cord is long enough to reach a wall outlet from a standard-depth floor rack without a cord extender. In shallower wall-mount or surface enclosures where a 3-foot cord would fall short, this length eliminates the need for extension adapters that introduce additional failure points.
• Commercial-Grade Construction: Middle Atlantic manufactures rack infrastructure for professional AV, security, and IT integrators. The J24B0B carries that commercial-grade lineage — built for continuous-duty environments, not consumer use. See the full Middle Atlantic product line for compatible rack enclosures and accessories.

Integration and Compatibility

The J24B0B mounts in any standard 19-inch EIA rack. It is well-suited for security equipment racks housing NVRs, PoE switches, and access control panels, as well as AV equipment racks where clean power distribution is a project requirement. TAA compliance makes it directly specifiable on government contracts and GSA schedules without a waiver. Consult your rack power management options for higher-amperage or surge-protected variants if your load profile requires them.

Frequently Asked Questions

A: The J24B0B ships with a 6-foot (1.8 m) power cord.

Q: What rack size does the J24B0B fit?

A: The J24B0B is designed for standard 19-inch EIA rackmount installations.

Q: Is the J24B0B suitable for government installations?

A: Yes. TAA compliance means it can be specified directly on government contracts and GSA schedules without a sourcing waiver.

Jerry Tildsen

The Middle Atlantic J24B0B comes up regularly when integrators are closing out a rack build and need a TAA-compliant power strip that fits a standard 19-inch bay — the 6-foot cord is the detail that actually matters in the field, since a 3-foot cord leaves you hunting for an extension on any mid-depth or deep rack.

Technical Highlights:

• TAA Compliance: Hard requirement for government and institutional bids — J24B0B satisfies it without a sourcing waiver or product substitution at contract time.
• 6 ft (1.8 m) Cord: Provides adequate reach from a floor rack to a wall outlet without daisy-chaining extensions, which add failure points and can create NEC compliance questions during inspection.
• 19-Inch Rackmount Form Factor: Integrates into standard EIA racks alongside NVRs, PoE switches, and access control equipment — keeps power distribution in the rack rather than on the floor.

Deployment Considerations:

• Verify outlet count and amperage rating against your actual load before specifying — source evidence confirms TAA compliance and cord length but does not detail outlet quantity or circuit amperage for this listing.
• If your rack load includes multiple PoE switches or high-draw NVR appliances, confirm the J24B0B's amperage rating covers your worst-case draw before committing to this unit over a higher-amperage Middle Atlantic PDU variant.

Best fit for government or institutional security and AV rack builds where TAA compliance is a bid requirement and the load profile is modest enough for a standard 15A-class rackmount strip.
