Middle Atlantic Products, established in 1979 and headquartered in Fairfield, New Jersey, is a prominent manufacturer renowned for its high-quality AV enclosures, racks, and mounting systems. The company was founded by Robert Schluter, who recognized the need for specialized solutions to protect and organize audio, video, and networking equipment in professional settings. Over the years, Middle Atlantic has become a leading name in the AV industry, known for its commitment to innovation, quality, and customer-centric design.

The company's product offerings are extensive, catering to the diverse needs of AV integrators, installers, and IT professionals. Middle Atlantic's product range includes AV racks, server racks, furniture, power distribution units, and cable management systems, all designed to ensure that equipment is securely housed, efficiently organized, and easily accessible. Their racks and enclosures are engineered to meet the demands of various environments, from corporate boardrooms and broadcast studios to data centers and residential installations.

One of Middle Atlantic's key innovations is their approach to power management. The company has developed advanced power distribution and protection systems, such as the Select Series PDU with RackLink, which integrates power monitoring, control, and management into a single, user-friendly platform. This innovation provides AV and IT professionals with the tools they need to ensure reliable operation, prevent downtime, and protect valuable equipment from power-related issues.

Middle Atlantic is also known for its pioneering cable management solutions, which simplify the often complex task of organizing and managing cables in AV installations. Products like their patented Lever Lock™ system allow for quick and easy mounting of small devices and cable management accessories within the rack, improving both the aesthetics and functionality of the setup. Additionally, their Understanding the Importance of Thermal Management philosophy has led to the design of racks and enclosures that effectively manage heat, ensuring the longevity and performance of the equipment housed within.

The company's focus on the installer experience has led to the development of features like the Forward Family, which includes a range of rack accessories designed for quick installation, reducing the time and effort required by integrators on-site. This user-centric approach has earned Middle Atlantic a loyal customer base among AV and IT professionals who value efficiency, reliability, and the ability to customize solutions to meet specific project needs.

Their products are trusted in environments where equipment organization, protection, and accessibility are critical to the success of the installation.
