Middle Atlantic RIB Riser Feet
Designed to enhance efficiency and organization in professional AV and data-center installations, the Middle Atlantic RIB Riser Feet are a vital component of the Raised Floor Enclosure System. These 2-1/2" high riser bases empower technicians to perform field rough-in procedures before racks and enclosures arrive on site, accelerating project timelines and reducing on-site labor. They also serve as a practical lower cable chase, allowing cables to pass cleanly between racks in multi-bay configurations. With a focus on durability and compatibility, the RIB Riser Feet help keep equipment ready for deployment while maintaining tidy, designed-in cable management for reliable performance.
- Time-saving field rough-in before racks arrive: Use the riser feet to establish planned cable pathways and rough-in routes in advance, so teams can complete critical wiring while space is reserved for future equipment.
- 2-1/2" high riser bases for clean clearance: The raised height creates essential clearance for cabling, airflow, and service access, supporting neat, organized installations in compact data- and AV-rack layouts.
- Lower cable chase for multi-bay installations: By acting as a dedicated passageway beneath and between racks, these feet streamline inter-rack cabling, reducing clutter and promoting easier maintenance.
- Ideal for multi-bay applications: When numerous racks share a common footprint, the RIB Riser Feet keep cable routes consistent across bays, aiding scalability and future expansions.
- Durable, compatible design: Built to work with the Raised Floor Enclosure System, these riser feet deliver reliable performance in professional environments while ensuring compatibility with Middle Atlantic components.

How to install Middle Atlantic RIB Riser Feet
- Plan your layout: Determine the rack positions and the anticipated cable paths across bays. Confirm that the Raised Floor Enclosure System is the correct foundation for your installation.
- Position the riser feet: Place each RIB Riser Foot at the designated support points under the anticipated enclosure base or floor plan. Align for level and consistent spacing to ensure stable support across the array of racks.
- Set the height and level: Verify that each riser foot provides the intended 2-1/2" rise and that the overall assembly sits level. Small adjustments may be needed to compensate for uneven subfloors or uneven rack footprints.
- Route cabling through the lower chase: If you’re using the riser feet for cable management, thread cables through the designed lower channel to minimize cross-talk, interference, and clutter between bays.
- Secure and test: Once aligned, secure the riser feet per the enclosure system guidelines, then perform a basic load and stability check. Confirm that cables are routed cleanly and that airflow and access remain unobstructed.
- Proceed with rack installation: With rough-in complete and cabling paths verified, proceed to bring in the racks and enclosures, connecting power, network, and AV cables as required.
