Middle Atlantic UP1P Utility Panel

Overview

The Middle Atlantic UP1P is a 1 RU horizontal utility panel designed for standard 19-inch racks. It serves as a versatile mounting surface, ideal for lacing large cable bundles or securing small, rack-mountable devices that lack their own rack ears. This panel provides a clean and organized solution for managing infrastructure within your network or AV closet, ensuring equipment is properly supported and cabling remains tidy. The UP1P model is a component-type horizontal panel with zero offset, meaning it mounts flush within the rack frame.

Compatibility

This utility panel is designed for use in any standard 19-inch wide rack system. Its 1 RU height and 19-inch width ensure compatibility with the vast majority of network, server, and AV racks. It is suitable for mounting a variety of small devices, patch panels, or for organizing extensive cable runs that would otherwise clutter the rack. Specific compatibility is not limited to particular brands of racks but rather to the standard 19-inch form factor and 1 RU height requirement.

Installation Notes

Installation involves securing the panel to the front or rear of the rack using standard rack screws (not included). The 1.75-inch (4.4 cm) height occupies one rack unit, and the 0.51-inch (1.3 cm) depth ensures it does not interfere with other rack-mounted equipment. The panel's design allows for straightforward cable lacing or device mounting using appropriate hardware for the attached components.
