Product Overview
The Middle Atlantic MRK-4042PROLRD is a 40-space, 42-inch-deep multibay configured rack that combines Proliant-compatible rails with a lever-release door for efficient server integration and fast front-panel access. Part of Middle Atlantic's MRK series, it is engineered for ganged multi-bay deployments in data centers, broadcast facilities, and enterprise AV infrastructure. The combination of PRO rails and lever-release hardware reduces installation time and simplifies rack servicing in high-density environments.
Product Description
The MRK-4042PROLRD is built around a 40-space (40SP) vertical mounting height and a 42-inch depth, providing ample room for 1U and 2U rack-mount servers, networking equipment, AV processors, and cable management accessories. The factory-installed Proliant-compatible (PRO) rails allow direct mounting of HP ProLiant and similarly railed servers without additional hardware, reducing deployment labor. The lever-release door (LRD) mechanism provides quick one-hand door operation, eliminating the need for keys or tools during routine access while maintaining a secure closed position. As an MRK series product, this rack is designed to gang with adjacent MRK enclosures, creating a unified multi-bay installation with consistent aesthetics and structural integrity. The 42-inch depth accommodates full-length servers and the cable management runs needed for clean structured installations. Welded steel construction provides the frame rigidity required for loaded rack deployments. The MRK series supports standard EIA rack rail spacing, ensuring compatibility with virtually all 19-inch rackmount equipment. Installation hardware and mounting accessories from Middle Atlantic integrate directly with the MRK frame. This rack is well-suited for enterprise IT deployments, AV systems integrators, and facilities teams building out scalable infrastructure. Available at creationnetworks.net with the full Middle Atlantic MRK product family.
