Middle Atlantic MRK-3726AXS-Z4: AXS Roll-Out Rack for Maximum Serviceability

The MRK-3726AXS-Z4 is a factory-assembled, roll-out rack system designed for Middle Atlantic’s AXS Series within the MRK enclosure family. This patented design prioritizes effortless serviceability by letting technicians roll entire bays of equipment out of the enclosure, delivering rapid access to rear connections, cabling, and installation points. Ideal for environments where space is at a premium, the MRK-3726AXS-Z4 combines robust construction with smart engineering to reduce downtime, simplify maintenance, and accelerate system upgrades in broadcast studios, control rooms, data closets, and AV installations.

• Roll-out access for fast service and installation

  Experience unprecedented technician-friendly access as entire bays glide forward, eliminating the need for disassembly or awkward reach-ins. This roll-out capability is designed to minimize service time, allowing engineers to inspect, upgrade, or swap equipment with minimal intrusion into the room workflow. The smooth, patented mechanism ensures controlled movement, stable support, and reliable return-to-rack operation after maintenance is complete.

• AXS Series architecture for flexible configurations

  As part of Middle Atlantic’s AXS Series, this MRK module is engineered to maximize rear access without compromising rack integrity. The AXS approach focuses on modularity, clean cable management, and compatibility with a broad ecosystem of audio-visual, IT, and networking components. By integrating with other AXS components, users can tailor the setup to specific application requirements, from compact control rooms to multi-bay data centers, while preserving serviceability and organization.

• Factory-assembled system in an MRK enclosure

  Delivered as a turnkey solution, the MRK-3726AXS-Z4 arrives pre-assembled within an MRK enclosure, reducing on-site labor and accelerating deployment. Factory assembly ensures precise alignment, secure mounting, and consistent quality across installations. This approach helps installers meet tight project timelines and reduces the risk of field misconfigurations, while still providing the flexibility to reconfigure bays as needs evolve.

• Rear connection access and enhanced cable management

  Rear-access design is central to the MRK-3726AXS-Z4, facilitating straightforward routing of power, data, and control lines. The system supports organized cable management trajectories, minimizing tangles and interference. With thoughtful separation of power and signal paths, users can simplify pacing, labeling, and troubleshooting, which translates into faster maintenance cycles and more reliable performance over time.

• Space-efficient, adaptable installation for limited environments

  In spaces where every inch matters, the MRK-3726AXS-Z4 delivers a compact footprint without sacrificing capacity or accessibility. Its layout supports multiple bays in a narrow footprint and is suitable for wall-mounted or surface-mounted installations in studios, control rooms, or equipment rooms. The modular nature of the MRK architecture enables scalable configurations, so facilities can start small and expand as requirements grow.

How to Install MRK-3726AXS-Z4

• Plan your layout: Determine the optimal placement within the MRK enclosure, accounting for equipment depth, cable paths, and service workflow. Confirm clearance for roll-out operation and access to rear ports.
• Prepare the enclosure: Ensure the MRK chassis is securely mounted, leveled, and grounded. Verify that power, network, and control circuits are ready for integration.
• Unpack and inspect: Remove packaging, inspect the MRK-3726AXS-Z4 for shipping damage, and verify all mounting hardware and components are present.
• Install the rollout module: Align the roll-out bays with the MRK chassis, slide into position, and secure using the manufacturer’s hardware. Confirm that the mechanism operates freely and seats firmly when retracted.
• Route and manage cables: Begin with primary power and critical data connections, then route through integrated cable management features. Label cables clearly and separate power from sensitive signal lines where possible.
• Test functionality: Power on equipment, test roll-out operation, confirm rear connection access, and verify Ethernet, audio, or control pathways function correctly. Monitor for any interference or unusual noise during operation.
• Finalize deployment: Close any access panels, perform a final cable clean-up, and document the configuration for maintenance records. Train staff on rollout use and safety precautions.
