Middle Atlantic 23-19-1 1-space Rack Reducer Panel

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND 23-19-1 is a 1-space rack reducer panel designed to adapt 23-inch rack enclosures to accept standard 19-inch rackmount equipment. This filler and adapter panel installs into a 23-inch rack frame and provides the correct mounting geometry for 1U equipment built to the 19-inch EIA standard. AV integrators, IT technicians, and low-voltage installers use this panel when mixing rack frame sizes or retrofitting older 23-inch infrastructure with modern 19-inch gear. Sold as a pair, the two panels work together to bridge the width difference on both sides of the rack opening.

This reducer is suited for residential and commercial rack installations where legacy 23-inch enclosures need to house current 19-inch rackmount devices such as patch panels, network switches, amplifiers, or power conditioners. It is a practical solution in retrofit scenarios where replacing the full rack frame is not cost-effective. The pair configuration ensures symmetrical support and proper alignment of the mounted equipment within the rack bay.
