Middle Atlantic CFR-15-18 Cabinet Frame Rack 15U 18in

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND CFR-15-18 is a 15-space open-frame cabinet rack with an 18-inch depth. It provides a structured mounting solution for rackmount equipment in AV, IT, and low-voltage installation environments. The CFR-15-18 accepts standard 19-inch rackmount gear and is designed for clean, organized equipment deployment where a full enclosure is not required. Licensed low-voltage technicians, AV integrators, and IT infrastructure installers are the primary trades that work with this product.

This cabinet frame rack is suited for residential and light commercial installations where equipment access from all sides is preferred over enclosed cabinet security. Typical applications include home theater equipment racks, structured wiring closets, small server or network equipment deployments, and AV equipment staging. The open-frame design allows for straightforward cable management and ventilation without supplemental cooling hardware in most installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage technicians or AV integrators following local building codes and manufacturer mounting guidelines. Before installing or removing equipment, power down all devices and disconnect signal cables to avoid damage to sensitive electronics. Ensure the rack is secured to a stable surface or wall-anchor system rated for the total loaded weight before populating with equipment. Refer to applicable NEC low-voltage wiring guidelines when routing cables through or near the rack frame.
