Atlas Sound FMA44-25G Gangable Rack 25.5 inch Deep, 44RU **Shown with Optional Side Panels & Front Door**

Product Overview

The AtlasIED FMA44-25G is a 44RU gangable equipment rack, 25.5 inches deep, built for commercial AV rack installations where multiple bays must be joined into a continuous equipment wall. Designed with contractor input, it addresses the wire management and storage demands of modern head-end rooms, equipment closets, and rack farms. The 14-gauge steel construction, included rear door, and pre-tapped 12-gauge mounting rails make it a dependable foundation for amplifiers, DSPs, network switches, and source gear. Note: product photos show optional side panels and front door, which are sold separately.

Product Description

The FMA44-25G features increased width for better wire management inside the bay, with slots maintained in the hat sections for cable routing and slots in the rack rails for cable pass-through and front door hinge access. Tops, bottoms, and frames are 14-gauge steel, and hat sections provide rail slots and retainer holes for added strength. Two pairs of 12-gauge CRS adjustable mounting rails come plated, drilled, and tapped 10-32 with hash marks indicating rack unit increments, which speeds equipment layout during commercial AV installation. Hat sections are sized for standard 19-inch panels, convenient for mounting stick-on modules and other hardware.

Integrators planning ganged rack rows will appreciate the practical details: holes for optional surface doors are pre-drilled with factory-installed threaded inserts so doors can be added after equipment is loaded, and a return provides a stop when flush-mount doors are used. Removable standard 2U panels at the rear of the cabinet top and bottom include 3/8-inch knockouts for BNC connectors, well suited to diversity wireless microphone systems. A 10RU open area on the top section accepts AtlasIED fan panels or 5000 Series top panels for ventilation planning, and multiple vent slots run along the top and bottom. The scratch-resistant textured black epoxy finish holds up in service, leg levelers are included, and optional swing-out side panels (FMA44-25LRPV) secure the end racks of a ganged row. Plexiglass, perforated steel, and solid front doors are optional. Find rack accessories and the rest of the equipment chain in our AtlasIED collection.
