Middle Atlantic FEB1 – 1 RU Flat Econo Blank Rack Panel

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic FEB1 is a 1 rack space flat economy blank panel that fills unused openings in standard 19-inch equipment racks. Built from sturdy steel and finished in durable flat black powder coat, it delivers a clean, uniform rack face at a contractor-friendly price point. The panel is offered as a single unit, a 12-piece contractor pack (FEB1-CP12), and a 50-piece bulk pack (FEB1MP) for volume rack integration work. Blanking open rack spaces also supports proper airflow management by closing gaps in the equipment face.

Product Description

Open rack spaces are more than a cosmetic issue in a commercial AV installation — they disrupt airflow paths, expose internal cabling, and leave a rack looking unfinished to the client. The FEB1 flat econo blank solves this with a simple flat steel panel that covers one rack unit of unused space. The flat black powder coat finish matches Middle Atlantic racks and rack accessories, so filled spaces blend in rather than stand out. Because it is a flat panel without a flanged return, the FEB1 keeps a low profile across the rack face and is quick to handle and install in volume. Integrators who build racks regularly will find the FEB1-CP12 contractor pack of twelve panels keeps shop stock ready for day-to-day builds, while the FEB1MP 50-piece pack supports large rack integration programs, multi-rack deployments, and standardization across campus or enterprise installations. Specifying blanks at the design stage is an inexpensive way to deliver a finished, serviceable rack on every project. The panel fits any EIA-standard 19-inch rack, including Middle Atlantic enclosures, wall racks, and credenza racks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the FEB1 fit racks other than Middle Atlantic?
Yes. The FEB1 fits any EIA-standard 19-inch equipment rack, including wall-mount, floor, and credenza racks from other manufacturers.

How does the panel install?
The FEB1 mounts to standard rack rail using rack screws, covering one rack space per panel. Installation takes seconds per panel.

What is the difference between the three SKUs?
All three are the same 1 RU flat steel panel. FEB1 is a single panel, FEB1-CP12 is a 12-piece contractor pack, and FEB1MP is a 50-piece bulk pack for volume work.

Why should I blank unused rack spaces?
Blank panels close gaps in the rack face, which supports intended airflow paths, conceals internal cabling, and gives the finished rack a professional appearance.

Is this a vented panel?
No. The FEB1 is a solid flat blank. If a project calls for passive ventilation, Middle Atlantic offers vented panel options in the same form factor.

Is the FEB1 covered by a warranty?
Middle Atlantic rack accessories are covered by the manufacturer's warranty. Contact Creation Networks for warranty details and ordering support.

Can Creation Networks quote bulk quantities for large projects?
Yes. We support integrators and procurement teams with volume pricing on contractor packs and bulk accessories across the Middle Atlantic line.
