Lowell USV-214 Vented Rack Shelf 2U 14 Inches Deep

Product Description

The LOWELL USV-214 is a vented rack shelf designed for 2U rack enclosures with a 14-inch depth. It provides a stable, ventilated mounting surface for rack-mounted equipment in audio-visual, data, and low-voltage system installations. The vented design promotes airflow across installed components, reducing heat buildup in densely loaded racks. This shelf is sold as a single unit and is intended for installation by AV integrators, low-voltage technicians, or structured cabling professionals working in commercial and residential rack systems.

This shelf is suited for standard 19-inch EIA rack enclosures in equipment rooms, server closets, AV racks, and similar applications. Its 2U height and 14-inch depth make it appropriate for housing lightweight rack-mounted devices such as power conditioners, patch panels, small receivers, or other accessory equipment that requires a solid shelf rather than direct rail mounting.

Key Features

• Vented surface design promotes passive airflow to reduce heat buildup in loaded rack enclosures
• 2U rack height fits standard EIA 19-inch rack rails
• 14-inch usable depth accommodates a range of shallow to mid-depth rack components
• Single-unit quantity for straightforward procurement and installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard accessory for use in 19-inch EIA-compliant rack enclosures requiring a 2U vented shelf solution.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a low-voltage technician or AV integrator. Power down or de-energize all rack-mounted equipment before installing or repositioning shelves within the enclosure. Secure the shelf to both rack rails using appropriate rack screws or cage nuts before loading any equipment. Do not exceed the shelf load rating; verify weight capacity against the combined load of all components placed on the shelf.
