The SARPBL8 rack panel provides professional installers and touring sound engineers with a clean solution for organizing XLR and other D-size connectors in standard 19-inch rack cases. This 1U panel eliminates the need for drilling holes or custom modifications when building permanent installations or tour-ready rack systems.

Each panel features eight pre-punched D-size holes arranged for optimal spacing and cable management. The heavy-duty steel construction with black powder coat finish matches professional rack gear and withstands the rigors of live sound environments. At 1.75 inches tall, it occupies exactly one rack space while providing maximum connector density.

The D-size holes accommodate XLR connectors, speakON connectors, and other professional audio connectors commonly used in PA systems and monitoring rigs. This configuration works particularly well for band front-of-house setups, church sound systems, and mobile DJ rigs where multiple microphone and speaker connections need organized access points.

Installation requires only standard rack screws and takes minutes to complete. The panel mounts to any standard 19-inch rack case or open frame rack. You'll need the appropriate connectors and cables for your specific application - the panel provides the mounting platform while you supply the actual connectors.

Each 2-pack includes two identical panels for symmetrical rack builds or backup inventory. Seismic Audio backs these panels with a one-year warranty and ships them ready to install in your rack system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size connectors fit the D-holes on this rack panel?

The D-size holes accommodate standard XLR connectors, speakON connectors, and most professional audio connectors with D-shaped flanges. This includes microphone inputs, line outputs, and speaker connections commonly used in live sound applications.

Can I use this panel for both input and output connections?

Yes, the panel works for any type of connection you need to organize. Many users dedicate one panel to inputs (microphones, instruments) and another to outputs (speakers, monitors), while others mix connection types on a single panel based on their workflow needs.

How much rack space does each panel occupy?

Each panel occupies exactly 1 rack unit (1U or 1 RU), measuring 1.75 inches in height. This allows you to fit multiple panels in a standard rack case while leaving room for amplifiers, processors, and other gear.

Do the connectors and cables come with the panel?

No, this is just the mounting panel with pre-punched holes. You'll need to purchase the actual XLR connectors, speakON connectors, or other hardware separately based on your specific connection requirements.

Will this panel work with road cases and portable racks?

Yes, the standard 19-inch width and rack rail mounting make it compatible with any professional rack case, including portable road cases, open frame racks, and permanent installation racks. The heavy-duty steel construction handles touring environments.
