Middle Atlantic LED Work Light - 2 Pack
The Middle Atlantic LED Work Light - 2 Pack is a purpose-built, integrator-focused lighting solution designed to illuminate 19-inch rack spaces with precision and reliability. Engineered for installation and service work, this full-rack lighting system delivers bright, uniform illumination exactly where you need it, so technicians can work faster, with fewer mistakes and less eye strain. Built to withstand the rigors of everyday rack work—from data centers to AV installations—the LED Work Light pairs sturdy construction with flexible positioning, enabling you to illuminate crowded equipment bays, cable terminations, and backplanes without creating glare or shadows that impede visibility. The compact, low-profile design slides into tight mounting areas and can be oriented for task-specific lighting, making it ideal for integrators who demand adaptable, high-visibility lighting at a moment’s notice. Each unit in the 2-pack is designed to work in concert with its counterpart to provide consistent lighting coverage across multiple points of interest, whether you’re aligning patch panels, inspecting back-of-rack connections, or performing delicate maintenance on sensitive equipment. In short, this lighting solution helps you complete rack tasks more efficiently, with exacting clarity and reduced risk of accidental disconnections or misaligned components.
- High-visibility LED illumination designed specifically for 19" rack installations, delivering bright, uniform light to critical work areas without hotspots.
- Flexible mounting and positioning options allow you to aim light precisely where it’s needed, from single-point focus to wide-area coverage across the entire rack.
- Low heat output and energy-efficient LEDs minimize thermal buildup near sensitive equipment, helping maintain equipment performance and reliability during long work sessions.
- Durable, rack-ready housing with rugged construction tailored for demanding environments in IT, AV, and pro-AV installations, including frequent servicing and reconfiguration.
- Convenient 2-pack configuration supports multi-point lighting strategies or convenient spare lighting for rapid swap-outs during maintenance cycles.

How to install Middle Atlantic LED Work Light - 2 Pack
Begin by locating two suitable positions within or adjacent to your rack where illumination would most improve visibility during installation or servicing. The Middle Atlantic LED Work Light is designed to be flexible and unobtrusive, so you can place it in locations that minimize interference with airflow, cable management, and access to rear panels. If your rack frame includes adjustable rails or U-space modules, use the provided mounting hardware to secure each light firmly to a stable point on the rail or cabinet side. It’s recommended to install one unit near the top rear of the rack for broad-area lighting and a second unit lower down for focused task lighting, though you can configure the setup to match the specific tasks you perform most often. After mounting, connect each light to a powered source using compliant cabling and power distribution equipment appropriate for your facility’s electrical standards. Ensure the power is off when making connections to avoid accidental shocks or equipment damage. Once connected, you can tilt, swivel, or rotate the units to align the light beam with your primary work zone, then test by performing a routine inspection of an active rack or simulated maintenance task. Adjustments should be performed with the rack powered down if possible, and then verified under normal operating conditions. Regularly check mounting hardware for signs of loosening, and re-tighten as needed to maintain consistent illumination during future maintenance windows.
Practical tips for best results:
- Use both units to create a balanced lighting field across the rack, reducing shadow lines that can obscure fine details on cables or connectors.
- Aim lights slightly downward and toward working zones to minimize glare on sensitive indicators or display panels inside the rack bay.
- When working near heat-sensitive components, adjust the beam to avoid direct contact with high-heat areas, preserving component longevity.
- Dedicate separate lighting when performing alignment tasks that require high contrast, such as identifying color-coded cables or verifying port labels.
- Periodically inspect connectors and mounting points to ensure ongoing stability, especially after relocation, reconfiguration, or equipment swaps within the rack.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: How many work lights are included in the package? A: The package includes two LED work lights, designed for simultaneous use to provide enhanced coverage across a single rack or multiple racks.
- Q: Are these lights compatible with standard 19" racks? A: Yes. The design targets standard 19" rack installations and works with common mounting rails and hardware used in IT, AV, and pro-audio environments.
- Q: Do the lights get hot during operation? A: LED technology generally produces less heat than traditional lighting, helping to minimize thermal buildup near sensitive equipment; however, some heat is always produced and should be managed by proper airflow and spacing.
- Q: Can I dim or adjust brightness? A: Dimming capabilities depend on the specific SKU and control options in your setup; refer to official specifications for dimmability and compatibility with dimming equipment.
- Q: What installation considerations should I keep in mind? A: Ensure secure mounting to prevent vibration, maintain clear cable routes to avoid obstruction, and verify that power connections comply with your facility’s electrical standards before powering on.
- Q: Is there a recommended maintenance schedule? A: Regularly inspect mounting hardware and test light operation as part of routine rack maintenance. Replace lights if output dims or if there are signs of damage to the housing or cables.
