Middle Atlantic EWR-16-17SD 16-space Wall Rack Front Door

Product Description

The Middle Atlantic EWR-16-17SD is a 16-space, 17-inch deep economy wall-mount equipment rack equipped with a front door. Designed for structured wiring, AV, and low-voltage equipment installations, this rack provides a compact, wall-mounted enclosure that keeps gear organized, secure, and accessible. The front door adds a layer of protection and a finished appearance suited to both commercial and residential installs. Low-voltage technicians and AV integrators commonly specify this rack for telecom closets, server rooms, and equipment rooms where floor space is limited.

This wall rack is well suited for residential and light commercial applications where a full-depth floor rack is impractical. Typical installations include structured wiring panels, patch panels, network switches, power distribution units, and small AV processing equipment. The 16-space capacity accommodates a meaningful amount of rack-mount gear within a modest footprint, making it a practical choice for utility rooms, closets, and wall-mount equipment bays.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style wall-mount enclosure compatible with standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment, including patch panels, switches, and AV components that conform to standard rack-unit (U) spacing.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified low-voltage technician or AV integrator familiar with wall-mount rack systems. Secure the rack to wall studs or use appropriate hollow-wall anchors rated for the total load of the installed equipment. Ensure all power to existing equipment is disconnected before mounting or servicing components inside the rack. Local building codes and TIA-569 pathway and spaces standards should be consulted for telecom and structured wiring closet installations.
