Middle Atlantic RSH4A2R – Custom 2U Rackshelf Enclosure, 15.5" Depth

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic RSH4A2R is a custom 2U rackshelf enclosure with a 15.5" shelf depth, designed to mount non-rackmount AV components in a standard 19" rack or enclosure with no field modification. Its black brushed and anodized face plate is cut to order by Middle Atlantic to match the exact equipment you specify, framing the device's front panel like factory rackmount hardware. The mid-range depth suits the broad middle of consumer and pro AV gear — deeper than a set-top box, shorter than a full-depth source. It is the standard-width counterpart to the wide-format RSH4A2RW.

Product Description

Every integrated system has components that lack rack ears: disc players, gaming consoles, signal processors, and network devices among them. Rather than leaving them loose on a utility shelf, the RSH4A2R secures the chassis on a supporting platform behind a custom-cut anodized face plate, keeping the rack elevation clean and the equipment protected.

The model number spells out the configuration. RSH4A identifies the custom rackshelf platform with the black brushed anodized face plate, the 2 calls out a 2-space (2U) height, and the R depth code denotes a 15.5" shelf. As a standard-width model it accepts equipment up to 17-3/8" wide. The 15.5" platform gives mid-depth chassis full support while keeping rear rack space available for power and signal connections.

Because each face plate is machined to order, include the make and model of your component when purchasing so the cutout matches on arrival. The shelf mounts on any EIA-standard 19" rack rail and blends with the rest of the Middle Atlantic rack accessories at Creation Networks. Shallower and deeper standard-width siblings are available as the RSH4A2S (11.5") and RSH4A2X (17.5").
