Product OverviewThe Middle Atlantic BGR-4527-AV is a 45U pre-configured AV equipment rack that ships with the thermal management, cable management, and small-device mounting accessories integrators most often specify for commercial AV installation. Built on the BGR Series frame at 83 inches high, 23 inches wide, and 29 inches deep, it eliminates the line-item-by-line-item accessory ordering that slows down rack builds. The included DC fan top, Forward lacer bars, Lever Lock channels, and blank panels arrive as a single SKU, simplifying procurement and standardizing rack builds across projects.Product DescriptionPre-configured racks reduce two of the most common pain points in AV integration: incomplete accessory orders and inconsistent rack builds between technicians. The BGR-4527-AV addresses both by bundling Middle Atlantic's most popular Forward accessories with a 45-rackspace BGR frame, so every rack arrives ready for equipment loading and cable dressing.Thermal management is handled by an included DC fan top (IBGR-276FT-FC) with four fans moving 276 CFM. It ships with a fan controller and power plugs for North America, the EU, the UK, and Australia, making the same rack configuration usable across international deployments.Cable management is comprehensive. Horizontal routing is covered by a 4-pack of Forward straight lacer bars (FWD-LB-1A-4PK) and a 4-pack of 2-inch offset lacer bars (FWD-LB-2A-4PK). Vertical routing uses the Forward Vertical Wire Grid Lace (FWD-LACE-WB3-44-45) for combined vertical and horizontal runs on a single lace bar, plus the Forward Vertical Cable Management Lace (FWD-LACE-UMV-44-45) with the patented universal hole pattern, which accepts FWD-C-RING, FWD-D-RING, and FWD-TSW-15 accessories. A 15-pack of Forward tie saddles (FWD-TSW-15) and two TW12 hook-and-loop straps finish the cable dressing kit, with no hardware required for saddle placement.Small, non-rackmount devices are handled by two 4-packs of Forward small device clamps (FWD-SIDECLMP-4) and a Lever Lock plate (LL-VP2110), with two Lever Lock vertical channels (LL-VC21) installed for tool-free accessory mounting. Rack dress-out includes four 1RU and two 2RU Forward flanged blank panels, a solid front door (BFD-45), a pair of side panels (BSPN-45-27), heavy-duty leveling feet (LF-HD), and 100 10-32 rack screws.
