Middle Atlantic MW-VT Vented Top for WRK Gangable Racks

Overview

The Middle Atlantic MW-VT is a steel vented top panel designed specifically for Middle Atlantic WRK series gangable open-frame racks that ship without a rear door. At 64% open area, it provides meaningful passive airflow across the full rack top — critical in equipment-dense deployments where heat accumulates at the top of the cabinet. At 21.7 in wide and 25.06 in tall, the MW-VT fills the standard WRK top opening without modification. The steel construction with black powder-coat finish matches the WRK rack family and holds up in the wall-mount and AV rack environments where rack accessories like this are routinely installed.

Compatibility

The MW-VT is engineered for Middle Atlantic WRK series gangable racks that do not include a factory rear door. Verify your WRK model ships without a rear door before ordering — WRK variants that include a rear door use a different top panel. The panel dimensions (21.7 in W × 25.06 in H) are specific to the WRK gangable footprint and are not interchangeable with Middle Atlantic's RK, ERK, or WMRK series without confirming dimensional match. If you are building out a network rack enclosure system using multiple WRK frames ganged together, one MW-VT is required per rack unit in the gang that lacks a rear door. Review the rack cooling and ventilation options alongside this panel if active airflow management is required for your installation.

Installation Notes

The MW-VT is classified as an active component — confirm rack orientation and cable management plan before installing, as the 64% open area means the top panel is not a cable management surface. Shipping weight is 10 lbs; plan for two-person handling when mounting overhead in tall wall-mount configurations. No special tooling is specified in available documentation.
