Middle Atlantic RSH4A3R – Custom 3U Anodized Rackshelf, 15.5" Depth

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic RSH4A3R is a custom 3U rackshelf with a black brushed anodized face plate, cut to order for the exact AV component you specify. It allows integrators to mount virtually any non-rackmount component in a standard 19" rack or enclosure without modifications. With a 15.5" usable depth, this 3-space custom rack shelf handles deeper source components and processors that shallower shelves cannot accommodate.

Product Description

Half-rack media players, consumer streaming boxes, and compact processors rarely ship with rack ears, which leaves them sitting loose on a shelf or stuffed behind equipment. The RSH4A3R from Middle Atlantic solves this with a custom-cut faceplate rack shelf: the anodized front panel is machined to match the exact footprint of your component, so the device presents through the rack face like native rackmount equipment. The 3U (three rack space) height provides clearance for taller chassis such as AV receivers, disc players, and small-format amplifiers. The 15.5" depth places this model between the 14" RSH4A3M and the 17.5" X-series shelves, making it a practical fit for mid-depth gear in equipment racks and credenza enclosures. The black brushed anodized finish blends with standard rack rail and blank panels for a uniform front-of-rack appearance in boardrooms, residential theaters, and broadcast suites. Because the cutout is made to your specified make and model, ventilation and connector access are preserved without oversized gaps around the chassis. The shelf mounts to standard 19" EIA rack rail with no drilling or fabrication required. If you are racking non-rackmount AV equipment across multiple rooms, pair this shelf with other depths in the RSH4A series available at Creation Networks.
