Middle Atlantic RFR-1628BR Open Frame Rack 16U 28.25 in

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND RFR-1628BR is a 16U open frame rack designed for organized equipment mounting in professional AV, IT, and low-voltage installations. Built to a depth of 28.25 inches, this rack provides ample clearance for standard rackmount gear including patch panels, amplifiers, network switches, and power distribution units. The black finish suits both finished and utility spaces. Low-voltage installers and systems integrators are the primary trades working with this product in both residential and commercial settings.

The RFR-1628BR is suited for applications where a fully enclosed cabinet is not required but structured, rail-mounted equipment organization is needed. Common install scenarios include equipment rooms, IT closets, home theater mechanical spaces, and commercial AV racks where airflow and accessibility are priorities. The 16U capacity accommodates a moderate density of rackmount components in a compact footprint.
