Middle Atlantic SR28-46-32 – 28"W 46SP 32"D Swing Wall Rack

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic SR28-46-32 is a 28-inch-wide, 46-space, 32-inch-deep swing-out wall-mount rack designed for wiring closets, IDF rooms, and telecom spaces where floor space is limited and full equipment access is required. The hinged locking front swings away from the wall to provide access to rear-terminated cabling and equipment. Key search terms include heavy-duty swing wall rack, 46U wall-mount hinged rack, and wiring closet swing-out rack enclosure.

Product Description

The SR28-46-32 delivers 46 rack spaces in a 28-inch-wide swing-out wall-mount frame with a 32-inch mounting depth. The hinged design allows the entire rack frame to swing out from the wall on heavy-duty pivot hardware, enabling technicians to access patch panels, switches, and cabling from the rear without removing equipment or dismantling cable bundles. This is especially valuable in wiring closets, IT rooms, and building automation spaces where wall-mount is the only practical installation option. The locking hinge mechanism secures the rack in the closed position to prevent accidental opening and maintains a tidy wall-mount profile during normal operation. The 28-inch width accommodates 19-inch rack-mount equipment with flanking cable management space. The 32-inch depth supports standard 1U switches, patch panels, UPS units, and AV processors. The frame is constructed from heavy-gauge steel with a black powder-coat finish rated for the weight demands of fully populated 46U deployments. Middle Atlantic accessory panels and blanks are compatible for gap filling and airflow management. This rack ships with all required mounting hardware for wall installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the swing-out mechanism work on the SR28-46-32?

The entire rack frame is mounted on heavy-duty pivot hardware. When the locking hinge is released, the rack swings away from the wall on its hinge point, exposing the rear of all installed equipment for cabling and maintenance access.

Can I install standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment in the SR28-46-32?

Yes. The 28-inch-wide frame uses standard EIA 19-inch mounting rails, accepting all standard 1U, 2U, and deeper rack-mount equipment.

What is the maximum depth equipment I can mount in the SR28-46-32?

The 32-inch mounting depth accommodates most standard 1U and 2U switches, patch panels, and AV processors. Deep equipment requiring more than 30 inches of mounting depth should be verified against available clearance.

Is the SR28-46-32 appropriate for a fully populated 46U deployment?

Yes, the heavy-gauge steel frame and hinge hardware are rated for the weight loads of a fully populated 46U installation. Always verify total equipment weight against the published load rating.
