Product Overview
The Middle Atlantic SWR-16-12 is a 16-space, 12.5-inch-deep shallow wall rack designed for wiring closets, utility spaces, and any installation where wall clearance is severely limited. Its ultra-shallow depth allows mounting in locations where standard-depth racks are impractical, without sacrificing a full 16 spaces of usable rack capacity.
Product Description
The SWR-16-12 is part of Middle Atlantic's shallow wall rack line, purpose-built for IT and AV equipment that requires wall mounting with minimal projection. At 12.5 inches deep, it accommodates patch panels, switches, media converters, small UPS units, and other shallow rack-mount equipment. The black finish provides a professional appearance in both finished and utility environments. AV integrators and IT managers specify this rack where a standard 15-inch or 18-inch deep wall rack simply will not fit.
