Middle Atlantic RK12 - 12SP 16" Deep Open Frame Rack

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic RK12 is a 12-space, 16-inch deep open frame rack designed for AV and IT equipment installations where a compact, shallow form factor is required. It stands 22.5 inches tall and ships flat for cost-effective delivery via standard carriers. The rack assembles with included hardware and features a 10-32 threaded front rackrail with EIA-standard spacing.

Product Description

The RK12 open frame rack provides 12 rack units of usable space in a shallow 16-inch depth profile, making it well suited for locations where full-depth enclosures are impractical, such as back-of-house AV closets, furniture-mounted equipment areas, and small server or telecom rooms. The ready-to-assemble design allows the rack to ship flat, reducing freight costs and simplifying on-site logistics compared to pre-assembled cabinets. Assembly is accomplished using the included hardware with standard tools, and no specialized skills are required. The front rackrail uses 10-32 tapped holes with EIA-standard spacing, ensuring compatibility with the full range of rack-mountable AV, networking, and IT equipment. At 22.5 inches in height, the RK12 fits in low-clearance installations and can be integrated into furniture or custom millwork. The open frame design also promotes natural airflow and simplifies cable management compared to enclosed cabinets.
