Middle Atlantic VWM Series Back Pan, 36" High, 10" Deep, Black Finish

Introducing the ultimate equipment mounting platform for modern AV and IT installations. The Middle Atlantic VWM Series Back Pan is engineered for high capacity, low-profile flexibility, and future-proof adaptability. Built to integrate seamlessly with the VWM Series wall cabinets, this back pan unlocks deeper equipment capability without compromising cabinet aesthetics or cooling efficiency. Its patent-pending design redefines how you design and scale systems, enabling you to add or reconfigure gear as technology evolves while maintaining a clean, professional appearance in control rooms, broadcast suites, datacenters, and integrator installations.

• Designed for maximum capacity within a slim 36" high, 10" deep form factor, the VWM Back Pan uses a robust steel chassis and modular rails to securely hold a wide range of equipment. This enables you to consolidate gear in a compact footprint, optimize rack density, and simplify future upgrades—without expanding your wall footprint.
• Patented, patent-pending versatility provides flexible mounting options. You can reposition, reconfigure, or add accessories as your system evolves, ensuring your mounting solution stays ahead of technology changes and new equipment footprints without replacing the cabinet or back pan.
• Integrated cable management and thoughtful airflow considerations keep cables organized and out of the way of cooling paths. The Back Pan streamlines power and data routing while preserving proper ventilation, reducing heat buildup and simplifying serviceability in busy environments.
• Durable black powder-coated finish and rugged steel construction resist daily wear, fingerprints, and corrosion in demanding commercial settings. The back pan maintains a clean, professional look while providing long-term reliability for mission-critical installations.
• Easy installation and scalable compatibility with existing VWM accessories. The Back Pan is designed to integrate smoothly with the VWM ecosystem, enabling rapid deployment and scalable growth as your network and AV requirements expand.

How to install Middle Atlantic VWM Series Back Pan

Prepare your workspace and ensure the wall structure is secure enough to support the weight of the mounted equipment. Verify that you have the correct VWM Series cabinet and back pan pairing for your installation. Gather standard hand tools and the hardware recommended by Middle Atlantic for your cabinet model. Follow these steps to install the Back Pan efficiently and safely:

• Power down all connected equipment and disconnect cabling to prevent damage during installation.
• Remove any existing back panels or interior components if you are replacing an older configuration; keep a clear workspace to avoid misplacing parts.
• With the cabinet frame accessible, locate the mounting rails and alignment marks corresponding to the Back Pan’s attachment points. Ensure the cabinet is plumb and securely anchored to the wall studs or a reinforced mounting surface.
• Position the VWM Back Pan inside the cabinet, aligning the mounting holes with the cabinet rails. Start by loosely threading screws to allow for final adjustment, then tighten gradually to avoid misalignment.
• Attach any required brackets, rails, or accessories that accompany the Back Pan, following the manufacturer’s torque specifications. Route power and data cables through built-in channels or grommets to maintain clean organization.
• Mount equipment onto the Back Pan in a balanced pattern, beginning with heavier devices toward the bottom for stability. Leave adequate space for airflow and service access around each piece of gear.
• Reconnect cables, verify labeling, and test each device to confirm proper operation. Close the cabinet door and perform a final inspection to ensure there are no cable kinks or strain on connections.
• Document the installation for maintenance records and future upgrades, noting the Back Pan’s position within the VWM system for quick reference during service calls.
