Middle Atlantic VRK-44-36H – 44SP 36" Horizontal Video Rack

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic VRK-44-36H is a 44-space, 36-inch-deep horizontal video rack engineered for broadcast head-end rooms, production facilities, and AV equipment rooms requiring organized horizontal cable management. Designed for rack-density-critical environments, it supports high rack unit counts while maintaining structured cable routing. Common search terms include horizontal video rack for broadcast, 44U head-end equipment rack, and Middle Atlantic horizontal AV rack system.

Product Description

The VRK-44-36H provides 44 rack spaces in a horizontal configuration tailored to video and broadcast infrastructure. Its 36-inch depth accommodates standard and deep-profile video equipment including routers, frame synchronizers, multi-viewers, and signal processing gear. The horizontal layout simplifies front-panel access and cable identification in dense head-end environments where vertical racks create ergonomic and cable management challenges. The enclosure is constructed from welded steel with a durable powder-coat finish for long-term performance in production environments. Horizontal cable management channels are integrated to maintain clean signal routing across the full width of the rack. Equipment mounting rails are adjustable to accommodate varying chassis widths. The rack is compatible with standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment and Middle Atlantic accessory panels. Ventilation provisions support passive airflow or optional active cooling. This rack is suitable for permanent installation in broadcast equipment rooms, master control suites, and large-scale AV integration projects. All hardware for standard rack-mount installation is included.
