Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf, 3 RU, 17.5"D, Textured

Elevate your rack setups with a purpose-built mounting platform designed for clean, professional installations in standard 19" enclosures. The Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf is a crucial part of the RSH family, delivering a precisely cut, front-face opening that accommodates a wide range of components without demanding modifications to your enclosure. With its textured finish and robust steel construction, this shelf not only supports diverse equipment securely but also maintains a polished, studio-ready appearance in AV racks, control rooms, broadcast suites, and data-center-adjacent installations. Whether you’re incorporating a compact media player, an audio processor, a small server, or a control module, this shelf provides a stable, service-friendly foundation that keeps gear accessible and cables neatly organized.

The hallmark of the Custom Wide Shelf is its harmony with the RSH custom rackmount concept. By tailoring the opening to the exact contour of the component’s front face, Middle Atlantic ensures a snug, professional fit that reduces gaps, minimizes dust intrusion, and enhances the visual coherence of a multi-device rack. This thoughtful approach translates into easier serviceability—removing a unit for maintenance or replacement is straightforward, with no need to trim or modify the enclosure itself. The shelf’s design also supports clean cable routing behind the device, helping to preserve airflow and reduce clutter around critical connections.

In practical environments, rack space is precious. The 3 RU height and 17.5" depth balance the need for room to accommodate larger front panels while remaining compact enough to fit into tight rack layouts. The shelf’s modest footprint leaves ample clearance for rear connectors, power cords, and cooling paths, which is essential for equipment longevity and performance. The textured finish resists scratching and fingerprint smudges, so high-traffic rack rooms and busy AV installations keep a professional look over time. This is particularly valuable in rental fleets, broadcast facilities, or event setups where gear is moved frequently and aesthetics meet operational reliability.

  • Precise, component-face opening with RSH integration: The shelf is custom-cut to provide a perfect opening for the mounted device’s front panel, ensuring a neat, flush appearance and easy access to controls, ports, and indicators.
  • Three rack-unit height (3 RU) with 17.5" depth: Optimized footprint provides ample space for larger devices while maintaining a compact rack profile, making it ideal for compact AV systems, small servers, and control gear.
  • Durable textured finish: Built to withstand rugged environments, the textured coating resists scratches and wear, preserving a professional look even in busy rack rooms.
  • Standard 19" rack compatibility: Designed to fit within any standard 19" enclosure, allowing quick integration with existing racks and rails without custom fabrication.
  • Stable, reliable mounting in a modular rack system: The shelf provides solid support for a broad range of equipment and simplifies service access, cable routing, and ventilation in dense rack environments.

How to install Middle Atlantic Custom Wide Shelf, 3 RU, 17.5"D, Textured

  • Confirm your rack is a standard 19" enclosure (EIA) and that the mounting rails provide adequate support at the desired height for a 3 RU shelf.
  • Identify the mounting location within the rack. Plan for cable routing space behind the shelf and ensure there is unhindered access to the component’s front face once installed.
  • Prepare the shelf and the enclosure by aligning the shelf’s mounting holes with the rack rails. Because hardware can vary by enclosure, use conventional rack screws suitable for your rails (not necessarily included with the shelf).
  • Insert and tighten the rack screws through the shelf’s mounting points into the rails. Start at a top corner, then move to the opposite corner, and finally secure the remaining fasteners to ensure even load distribution.
  • Place your component into the shelf’s front-face opening, ensuring the device sits flush with the opening and that all connectors line up with the card, ports, or face controls. Verify there is enough clearance for cables at the rear, and adjust as needed for optimal airflow.
  • Route power and data cables behind the shelf carefully, avoiding sharp bends and ensuring accessibility for maintenance. If required, install any faceplates or panel covers to complete the finished look and protect exposed edges.

the "fit" is very precise
Style: BE-176H 1-Pack
Nice Fabrication, Good materials, perfect adhesive applications, "clean joints" etc. Appears to be a good UPGRADE from the stock Motorcraft product. CONs: The FIT was a "smidge TIGHT", and took very precise initial alignment and "pressure" to begin to slide into the rectangular hole. I measured the "Hole" at 7.375" wide, or (187.33 mm)... the FILTER is exactly the SAME. I would suggest maybe reducing the Width by 1 mm, to allow for an easier installation. The MOTORCRAFT uses an "open-cell" foam structure for the (2) Side pieces on their filter assembly, allowing some "compression to fit", of the Width, easing the difficulty of installation, yet still filling all voids. In summation, the "fit" is very precise. Not to be hurried or rushed, maybe a bit meticulous for the impatient or weak of heart.

Breathe Easy!
Style: BE-728H 1-Pack
Ladies and gentlemen, buckle up, because we're about to embark on a whirlwind adventure of cleaner air and contortionist-worthy installation feats with the Spearhead HEPA Breathe Easy Cabin Filter! First off, let's talk about installation. If you're someone who loves a good yoga session or considers themselves a Cirque du Soleil dropout, this is the filter for you. The instructions are so clear and helpful that even a goldfish could follow them. However, be prepared to twist and turn in ways you didn't know your body could. And let me tell you, I'm not in the best of shape. I discovered muscles I never knew I had and positions that would make a pretzel jealous. But don't worry, it's all worth it. Once installed, my car’s air quality shot up faster than a rocket to Mars. And although my car is old and doesn't have any fancy AI, it felt like it was saying, "Ahh, finally, some quality air!" The air was so crisp and pure, I half expected to see little cartoon birds chirping around my head. And let me emphasize this: the product quality is top-notch. It not only works great but looks good too. I purchased this gem because my wife has bad allergies, and so far, it's been a game-changer. She hasn't sneezed once, and the car doesn't smell as musty with the air conditioning on. It's like we've been transported to a fresh, alpine air paradise every time we drive. In summary, the Spearhead HEPA Breathe Easy Cabin Filter is a game-changer. It's as easy to install as putting on socks—if putting on socks required you to become a human origami. But trust me, once it's in place, your lungs will thank you, and your car will feel like it's breathing the fresh, alpine air of the Swiss Alps. Five stars, and a standing ovation from my now incredibly limber body!

Great Cabin Filter Upgrade
Style: BE-729H 1-Pack, Style: BE-729H 1-Pack
I recently replaced my old cabin air filter with this one, and the difference was noticeable right away. Installation was quick and straightforward took less than 10 minutes with no special tools needed. What I appreciate most is the air quality improvement. The airflow feels stronger, and there’s a clear reduction in dust, odors, and outside pollution entering the cabin. If you’re looking for an easy, affordable upgrade that actually makes a difference in everyday driving comfort, this cabin filter is definitely worth it.
