Middle Atlantic VT3-CP6 3-space Vent Panel

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND VT3-CP6 is a 3-space vented rack panel designed to improve airflow within enclosed equipment racks and cabinets. Featuring a large-perforation pattern, it allows heat generated by active components to dissipate passively without the need for additional fan hardware. This type of panel is a standard accessory in rack system builds, installed by AV integrators, IT technicians, electricians, and low-voltage systems professionals managing rack-mounted equipment in equipment rooms, server closets, and similar environments.

The VT3-CP6 fills unused rack unit space while simultaneously promoting vertical airflow through the rack enclosure. It is suited for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial rack installations where passive thermal management is required. The large-perforation design offers greater open area compared to standard small-perforation panels, making it appropriate for positions adjacent to high-heat-generating components such as amplifiers, power conditioners, and network switches.

Key Features

• 3-space (3U) rack panel height fits standard EIA rack systems
• Large-perforation pattern maximizes open area for passive airflow
• Designed to fill unused rack spaces while supporting thermal management
• Sold as a single unit (each)

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental panel for standard EIA 19-inch rack enclosures and cabinets.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by AV integrators, low-voltage technicians, or electricians during rack assembly or equipment service. Power down active rack components before reconfiguring panel positions to avoid accidental contact with energized equipment. Standard rack installation tools including a screwdriver and rack screws appropriate for the rack rail type are required. Follow the rack manufacturer guidelines and any applicable low-voltage wiring codes when positioning vent panels relative to active gear.
