Middle Atlantic BGR-3827-AV – 38RU Pre-Configured AV Rack 29" Deep

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic BGR-3827-AV (71" x 23" x 29") is a 38-rack-unit Bay Group Rack with 29 inches of interior depth, pre-configured for professional AV system integration in commercial and institutional environments. This enclosure is designed for AV integrators and system designers who need a factory-configured AV rack at a depth suited to standard professional AV equipment without the added footprint of deeper configurations. Common search terms include 38U pre-configured AV rack 29 inch deep, Middle Atlantic BGR 29" rack enclosure, and 38RU AV rack with integrated cable management.

Product Description

The BGR-3827-AV (29" deep) is part of Middle Atlantic's BGR (Bay Group Rack) series, which delivers ready-to-deploy rack enclosures pre-configured with the cable management and power infrastructure that AV system installations require. The 29-inch interior depth serves the majority of professional AV equipment—processors, amplifiers, DSPs, media players, and networking gear—while maintaining a more compact footprint compared to 32" or 34" deep variants. This makes the 29" version a practical choice when equipment room floor space is constrained or when the equipment list does not include deep-chassis units that require additional clearance. At 38 rack units, the enclosure provides substantial capacity for mid-to-large AV systems within a height that can accommodate ceiling height restrictions in existing equipment rooms. The external dimensions of 71" H x 23" W x 29" D should be verified against your equipment room floor plan before specifying. Factory-included vertical and horizontal cable management, a PDU bracket, and AC receptacle strips reduce field installation labor and ensure a consistent, repeatable installation standard across projects.
