Middle Atlantic 1RU UMS Rackshelf - 11.5 in Depth with Partial Blank Panels
Precision-engineered for professional installers and AV enthusiasts, the Middle Atlantic UMS1-11.5K Rackshelf delivers versatility, durability, and clean cable management in a compact 1U footprint. This rack shelf is designed to maximize the use of every inch in a standard 19-inch equipment rack, providing a reliable mounting surface for small devices while preserving space for connectors and accessories. With an 11.5-inch depth, it accommodates a wide range of gear — from compact media players and patch panels to small power blocks — without protruding into adjacent equipment. The universal mounting pattern enables front- or rear-mounting, giving you flexible installation options and simplifying service access. Crafted from steel and finished in a protective black powder coat, the UMS1-11.5K stands up to the rigors of live environments, studios, control rooms, and home theater racks alike. The inclusion of partial blank panels helps with airflow management and a tidy, professional appearance, allowing for tailored airflow and cable routing while maintaining a clean rack line.
