Ace Backstage Co. RPL-100 1 Space Aluminum CONNECTRIX Rack Panel, Blank

The “CONNECTRIX” System expands connectivity possibilities utilizing a unique panel cutout detail and an array of standard and new isolated connectors. This system provides more connectors and mounting options in stock ACE Rack Panels. The benefit is fast order turn around and lower cost than a custom punched panel. The look of custom fabricated rack panels with off-the-shelf stock prices and immediate delivery.

The “CONNECTRIX” Rack Panels (#RPL-100, #RPL-200, and #RPL-300) are flat and strong. The Rack Panels are made from high strength aluminum alloy (6061-T6) that is .125” thick (1/8"). The “CONNECTRIX” Rack Panels are machined, powder coated, and in stock for immediate delivery. The panels may be preloaded with “CONNECTRIX” connectors and engraved with your specifications, creating a unique, customized panel with a short delivery time.

Using the “CONNECTRIX” System Rack Panel it is possible to mount various combinations of “CONNECTRIX” Connectors without a single custom punch. By implementing the #C-15100, #C-25100, #C-26100, or #C-27100 Series of connectors, ACE can create a custom Rack Panel that will work in most any installation application. Connectors are loaded into panels using black, aluminum pop rivets. You may also choose to have your connectors loaded with removable machine screws and locking nuts, for a nominal fee. All ACE “CONNECTRIX” System Rack Panels are stocked in standard EIA 1, 2, and 3 space 19" sizes and will mount in Standard EIA Rack Mounts.

Many pre-cut stock #RPL-100, #RPL-200, and #RPL-300 Series “CONNECTRIX” System Rack Panels are stocked and available for immediate loading and engraving. Standard "CONNECTRIX" Rack Panels are created from high strength, tough, aircraft aluminum alloy (6061-T6) that is 1/8" (.125") thick. The standard Rack Panels mount with (4) machine screws. Each panel is CNC machined to precisely mate with the designated connectors and in the rack mounting holes. Each Standard "CONNECTRIX" Rack Panel is finished with oven cured semi-gloss black powder coat.

Most rack panels provide header space for custom engraving which is fast and easily accomplished on a separate dedicated CNC engraving machine. The finished rack panels show bright aluminum in the engraved characters and need not be back filled. ACE standard rack panels are flat, strong, and rigid like the typical thinner mild steel panels. Because the panels are machined and not punched they stay flat and undistorted unlike punched panels which distort in the punching process. The machined “CONNECTRIX” cutouts combine popular mounting patterns of the Neutrik® “D” series and Switchcraft® “E” series connectors with a generous rectangular cutout that mates with a growing array of adapter-mounted standard connectors. The adapter mount is plastic and provides ground isolation between the panel and connector.

Using the “CONNECTRIX” system rack panel it is possible to mount any combination of modular jacks (RJ45, RJ11 etc.), BNCs, dual RCAs, mic jacks, speaker jacks and numerous other standard connectors without a single custom punch. This system provides for more connectors and mounting options in stock standard ACE rack panels. The benefit is faster order turn around and lower cost. Less custom fabrication for custom spec results with off-the-shelf stock prices.

RACK WALL FEATURE:

• FLEXIBLE CONNECTOR MOUNT: RPL-100 Series "CONNECTRIX" Rack Panels utilize a custom machined “CONNECTRIX” System Cutout which combines the popular mounting patterns of the Neutrik® “D” and Switchcraft® “E” series connectors with a generous rectangular cutout that mates with a growing array of adapter-mounted standard connectors.
• DURABLE CONSTRUCTION: ACE "CONNECTRIX" System Rack Panels are machined from tough 1/8" (.125") thick Aluminum Alloy (6061-T6) on a dedicated CNC routing machine. Stock Rack Panels are flat, strong, and rigid like typical thinner mild steel panels. As a consequence of the panels being machined and not punched they remain flat and undistorted unlike punched panels which distort in the punching process.
• MEDIUM CONNECTOR CAPACITY: One (1) #RPL-110 "CONNECTRIX" Rack Panel will mount up to 10 "CONNECTRIX" Connectors.
• EASY INSTALLATION: Standard "CONNECTRIX" Rack Panels mount with (4) machine screws. Each Rack Panel is CNC machined to precisely mate with the designated connectors and in Standard EIA rack mounting holes.
• DURABLE FINISH: Oven cured, semi-gloss, black powder coat.
• CUSTOM ENGRAVING: Most Rack Panels provide header space for custom engraving which is fast and easily accomplished on a separate dedicated CNC engraving machine. The finished panels show bright aluminum in the engraved characters and need not be back filled.
• CUSTOM PANELS AT A LOWER COST: The “CONNECTRIX” System expands connectivity possibilities by providing more connectors and mounting options in stock ACE Rack Panels. The benefit is fast order turn around and lower cost than a custom punched panel. The look of custom fabricated panels with off-the-shelf stock prices and immediate delivery.
