StarTech 1U Slide-Out AV Component Panel, 19-inch Rack Mount, Steel, Black

Unlike fixed rack shelves that force you to unrack equipment for maintenance, this 1U slide-out panel glides forward on smooth slides, giving you instant access to AV components, KVMs, or network devices without disconnecting a single cable. Built from solid steel with a black finish, it turns any standard 19-inch rack into a flexible workstation for gear that needs regular attention.

Highlights

• 1U slide-out design for front access to mounted components
• Compatible with 19-inch rack systems, 2-post or 4-post
• Steel build with black finish for durability and a professional look
• Supports up to 20 kg (44.1 lbs) of equipment

In daily use

The slide-out mechanism is the key difference. Keep your equipment connected and simply pull the panel forward when you need to adjust settings, swap modules, or run diagnostics. The 445 mm depth fits most standard rack depths, and the front-mount design means installation is straightforward: attach the panel to the rack posts, secure with the included M5 hardware, and load your components.
