Middle Atlantic VSA-2744 – Telescoping Heavy-Duty Rack Shelf, 27"–44"D

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic VSA-2744 is a telescoping rack shelf that adjusts from 27 inches to 44 inches of usable depth, spanning front-to-rear rail in deep equipment racks. Rated for a 400 lb. load, it handles the heaviest rack-mounted components, from large AV receivers to broadcast and server-class hardware. Four-point mounting and hemmed 16-gauge steel construction deliver the stability commercial integrators require for long-term installations.

Product Description

Standard adjustable rack shelves leave a gap behind the shelf body when extended; the entire VSA-2744 shelf telescopes, so the full platform reaches the rear rail at any depth setting between 27" and 44". That design gives it the greatest usable depth in its class and makes it a practical mounting solution for oversized or non-rackmount equipment in deep enclosures. The shelf secures at four points — front and rear rails — rather than cantilevering off the front, which is how it achieves its 400 lb. weight capacity. Construction is hemmed 16-gauge steel with a durable black powder coat finish that matches Middle Atlantic rack enclosures. The shelf surface is fully vented to support airflow around heat-producing components, an important consideration in densely loaded AV rack installations. Multiple cable tie points along the shelf simplify cable management and strain relief for power and signal runs. For commercial AV integration, the VSA-2744 suits deep floor-standing racks in equipment rooms, head ends, and broadcast facilities where component depth varies project to project. Pair it with enclosures and accessories from our Middle Atlantic collection to complete the rack build.
