Middle Atlantic DWR Series Rack, DWR-21-17

Introducing the Middle Atlantic DWR-21-17, the pinnacle of wall-mounted rack cabinets designed to blend security, accessibility, and efficiency in a single, versatile enclosure. The DWR series redefines how you deploy professional AV, IT, and power distribution gear in both secured and non-secured environments. With its pivoting, sectional design, this wall cabinet delivers rear access like never before, allowing technicians to service, reconfigure, and expand equipment without moving furniture or sacrificing floor space. Whether you’re outfitting a control room, server closet, broadcast suite, or conference room cabinet, the DWR-21-17 helps you keep cables organized, equipment protected, and workflows uninterrupted. Built to meet the demands of modern installations, this wall rack cabinet combines robust construction, practical features, and flexible mounting options to create a storage solution that truly adapts to your space and your gear.

  • Pivoting, sectional design for effortless rear access. The DWR-21-17 is engineered with a pivoting front or rear access panel that opens to reveal a well-organized interior. This design makes it simple to install, dress, and service equipment from the rear, reducing downtime and risk of disturbing other gear. It’s ideal for installations where front access is limited or where cable management requires generous room to maneuver. The pivot mechanism ensures smooth operation even in tight riser spaces, keeping cables neatly tucked away while you work.

    With modular sections and configurable interior layouts, you can tailor the cabinet to your hardware footprint—from rack-mountable servers and switch gear to patch panels and AV matrices. The result is a cabinet that grows with your system, rather than forcing you to relocate equipment when upgrading or reconfiguring.

  • Space-saving wall-mount design that clears valuable floor area. By mounting securely to the wall, the DWR-21-17 liberates floor space for service corridors, equipment carts, or additional gear. This makes it an excellent choice for rooms with limited square footage or for environments where floor clutter can impede airflow and maintenance. The wall-mount configuration also simplifies cable routing, letting you run power, data, and video cables along the cabinet’s back or side channels while keeping pathways clean and accessible.

    Its compact footprint doesn’t compromise capacity. The DWR-21-17 is designed to house a range of rack-mounted components while preserving ventilation, ease of access, and tidy cable management. This combination of space efficiency and scalability helps you maximize your room’s real estate without sacrificing performance or reliability.

  • Rugged, secure construction for demanding environments. Constructed from heavy-duty steel with a durable powder-coated finish, the DWR-21-17 is built to withstand the rigors of daily operation in both secured and non-secured areas. The sturdy enclosure protects sensitive electronics from dust, incidental contact, and incidental impacts while maintaining a professional appearance. For applications requiring additional security, the cabinet supports lockable doors and components, giving you peace of mind in classrooms, studios, data centers, or broadcast facilities.

    The robust chassis also helps with thermal management by providing solid, consistent airflow paths and easy integration of cable management loom and venting components. A well-ventilated interior reduces heat buildup, which is critical for maintaining performance and extending the life of mounted equipment.

  • Versatile compatibility with AV, IT, and power distribution gear. The DWR-21-17 is designed to accommodate a wide range of equipment common in professional settings. Whether you’re mounting 19-inch rack gear, AV processors, network switches, UPS devices, patch panels, or presentation equipment, this cabinet supports a clean, professional installation. The modular interior can be adjusted to fit varying rack unit counts, heights, and weight distributions, helping you optimize space and improve serviceability.

    Cable management is a priority in the DWR-21-17. Built-in channels, cable pass-through options, and neatly integrated doors keep cables organized and out of sight while still offering quick access when needed. This makes routine maintenance, firmware updates, and expansions faster and less disruptive.

  • Easy installation and modular customization for rapid deployment. The DWR-21-17 is designed with installers in mind. Its modular design, straightforward mounting points, and pivoting access panels enable rapid installation and future reconfigurations with minimal downtime. Whether you’re upgrading an existing rack or deploying a new system, you’ll appreciate the time saved with simplified alignment, level mounting, and configurable interior rails. The result is a professional, scalable solution that adapts to changing technology needs without requiring a complete cabinet replacement.

    In practice, this means you can specify the DWR-21-17 for a variety of projects—from a compact control room to a larger equipment room—knowing it will meet demanding standards for reliability, aesthetics, and performance. Its universal fit and easy serviceability make it a preferred choice for integrators and facilities managers looking to streamline rack deployments across multiple sites.
