Middle Atlantic BGR-3827-AV – 38RU Pre-Configured AV Rack 34" Deep

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic BGR-3827-AV (71" x 23" x 34") is a 38-rack-unit Bay Group Rack with 34 inches of interior depth, pre-configured for professional AV system installations. This enclosure is intended for AV integrators and system designers specifying mid-to-large AV racks where deeper equipment and substantial cable routing demands require additional interior clearance. Common search terms include 38U pre-configured AV rack 34 inch deep, Middle Atlantic BGR 34" rack enclosure, and 38RU AV rack with cable management.

Product Description

The BGR-3827-AV is part of Middle Atlantic's BGR (Bay Group Rack) series, providing a factory-configured enclosure that arrives ready for AV system population. The 34-inch interior depth accommodates deeper AV and light IT equipment, including multi-channel amplifiers, DSPs, and media servers that may not fit in shallower enclosures. At 38 rack units, the chassis provides substantial equipment density for mid-to-large AV systems without the height of a 45U enclosure—a practical consideration in rooms with ceiling height restrictions or equipment room layouts that limit rack height. The pre-configured AV layout includes integrated cable management for both vertical and horizontal cable routing, keeping signal and power cabling organized throughout the system build. Factory-installed PDU brackets and AC receptacles enable immediate power distribution setup, reducing field labor and ensuring a consistent installation standard. The unit's external dimensions of 71" H x 23" W x 34" D should be verified against your equipment room floor plan before specifying. For procurement assistance, contact Creation Networks.
