Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic RSH4A4XW is a custom 4U rack shelf enclosure in wide format with a 17.5-inch-deep base, built to mount non-rackmount components in any standard 19-inch equipment rack. Its face plate is custom cut to the exact dimensions of the device you specify, producing a trimmed, gap-free front panel in a black brushed anodized finish. The deeper 17.5-inch platform suits full-size AV components such as receivers, amplifiers, and source gear, while the wide format accommodates larger-chassis equipment than the standard RSH4A4X. It is a clean, professional alternative to generic shelves for residential and commercial AV rack installations.

Product Description

Most racks accumulate at least a few components that were never designed for rack mounting. The RSH4A4XW solves that problem without drilling, brackets, or improvised hardware: Middle Atlantic custom cuts the anodized face plate of this 4U rackshelf to fit the specific component you specify when ordering. The company maintains a measurement database of more than 8,000 AV components, so the cutout matches your equipment with a snug fit and no visible gaps.

This X-depth model provides a 17.5-inch-deep mounting surface, the second-deepest option in the RSH4A series, giving full-depth audio and video components solid support from front to back. The W suffix designates the wide-format version of the enclosure, sized for components with wider chassis than the standard shelf accepts. A ventilated bottom promotes passive airflow around the mounted device to help manage heat inside the enclosure, and the included rear brackets keep the component from sliding backward out of the shelf.

At 4U (four rack units) tall, the face plate covers taller components while keeping the rack elevation uniform. The black brushed anodized finish matches Middle Atlantic rack panels and blends with surrounding equipment for a consistent, finished look.
