Middle Atlantic AX-SXR-20 – 20SP 20" Shallow AV Rack

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic AX-SXR-20 is a 20-space, 20-inch-deep shallow rack that delivers a full half-rack of capacity within the compact Middle Atlantic AX-SXR shallow rack form factor. For AV integrators and IT managers, this 20-inch deep rack mount at 20U is a practical specification for back-of-house AV rooms, wiring closets, and wall alcoves where depth is constrained. The AX-SXR-20 is a proven under-counter rackmount enclosure option when 20 rack spaces are required without a standard-depth enclosure.

Product Description

Twenty rack spaces at 20" of usable depth gives the AX-SXR-20 a memorable specification: the number of spaces matches the depth in inches. This makes it easy to remember on job sites and simple to communicate to facilities managers. The Side-X-Rail design provides access to the mounting rails from the side, which is critical in under-counter rackmount enclosure applications where the front is fixed below a countertop or desk surface. All 20 positions use 10-32 tapped rails, delivering fast, tool-minimal equipment installation on busy integration job sites. The all-steel frame meets the durability requirements of permanent commercial installations in hospitality, corporate, and government facilities. Integrators specifying an under-counter rackmount enclosure will find the AX-SXR-20's side access and shallow depth combine to solve the constraints of counter-height installations efficiently. The AX-SXR-20 is compatible with the complete Middle Atlantic AX accessory catalog. Vented blanks, power conditioners, and cable management panels from the AX series all fit without modification.

For most commercial AV system designs in mid-size rooms, 20U provides ample space for a complete signal chain including DSP, amplifiers, switcher, and power management.
