Overview

The Middle Atlantic AXS-36-26 is a professional-grade 36U rack enclosure built to organize and protect audio, video, and networking equipment in studio, broadcast, and live sound environments. With a standard 19-inch rack width and 26-inch depth, it accommodates a broad range of rack-mountable components from power conditioners and signal processors to patch panels and amplifiers. The black powder-coat steel construction delivers both durability and a clean, professional appearance that suits permanent installations and touring setups alike.

Middle Atlantic's AXS series emphasizes accessibility, allowing technicians to reach equipment from multiple sides without the awkward maneuvering that enclosed server cabinets sometimes require. The 36U height provides substantial capacity for consolidating an entire equipment chain into a single enclosure, reducing cable runs and simplifying system layout. Whether outfitting a control room, a machine room, or a mobile production rack, the AXS-36-26 provides a reliable foundation that integrates with Middle Atlantic's broader ecosystem of shelves, power strips, ventilation panels, and cable management accessories.
