Middle Atlantic RSH4S4XX – Custom 4U Rackshelf, 20.5 in Deep

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic RSH4S4XX is a custom 4U rackshelf that mounts non-rackmount AV components in a standard 19-inch equipment rack without modifying the gear itself. Its steel face plate is factory-cut to match the front panel of the specific component you specify, then finished in a textured black powder coat that blends with textured-front racks and panels. At 20.5 inches deep — the deepest platform in the RSH4S line — it supports full-depth sources such as AV receivers and power amplifiers.

Product Description

Integrators regularly face equipment that was never designed for a rack: consumer AV receivers, cable boxes, media players, and legacy gear with no rack ears. The RSH4S4XX solves this with a custom-cut rackshelf approach — Middle Atlantic cuts the textured face plate opening to your component's exact front-panel dimensions, so the unit sits flush and secure in the rack opening with no visible gaps. The component rests on the 20.5-inch deep shelf rather than hanging from its faceplate, protecting chassis and connectors from strain. Occupying 4 rack spaces (7 inches) of vertical height, this model handles taller components that a 1U or 2U shelf cannot. The textured black powder coat finish is the visual match for Middle Atlantic racks and accessories with textured fronts; if your rack uses brushed anodized panels, the companion RSH4A series is the better cosmetic fit. Because each unit is built to order for a specific equipment model, the finished shelf delivers a clean, factory-integrated appearance in residential AV racks, conference room equipment closets, and commercial head-end enclosures alike. Installation follows standard EIA 19-inch rack practice with no drilling, bracket fabrication, or equipment modification required.
