Designed for professional AV, broadcast, and data-center environments, the Middle Atlantic Front-Air Dam Panel Mount delivers a precise blend of airflow control and rack-space efficiency. This Front-Air Dam is a zero-U panel mount that fits seamlessly at the front of 27"W x 42RU SNE racks, letting you mount patch panels and other connectivity devices without sacrificing valuable vertical space. Built from steel and finished in a black powder coat, it combines rugged durability with a clean, professional appearance suitable for high-demand environments. By guiding air in a controlled path across front-mounted equipment, it helps maintain cooler, more consistent temperatures, reducing the risk of hotspots and improving overall system reliability. This panel is an ideal solution for broadcasters, post-production facilities, data centers, and any rack room where organization, airflow, and scalability matter. When you need a robust, space-saving front access solution that doesn’t compromise cooling performance, the Front-Air Dam Panel Mount stands up to daily rigors while keeping cables tidy and accessible for maintenance and upgrades.

  • Maximize usable rack space with a zero-U footprint — Mount front-facing gear without consuming vertical rack units, freeing up 1U, 2U, or more for devices that truly benefit from front access. This streamlined panel makes it possible to assemble denser patches and connectivity configurations while preserving critical airflow pathways. A compact, front-edge design keeps cabling organized and reduces the clutter that often accompanies dense rack layouts, enabling quicker installs and easier future expansion.
  • Optimized front-to-front airflow with a dedicated dam — The Front-Air Dam channels cooling air directly to the devices mounted at the front, minimizing recirculation between enclosure elements. This targeted airflow control helps suppress hot spots across patch panels, network gear, and connectivity modules, delivering more stable temperatures under load and supporting longer equipment life and consistent performance in demanding workloads.
  • Durable steel construction with a professional finish — Constructed from solid steel and finished in a durable black powder coat, this panel withstands the rigors of busy racks and service cycles. The sturdy build resists bumps and wear, preserving the panel’s alignment and appearance as your rack evolves. The finish resists chips and corrosion in typical data-center and AV environments, maintaining a sleek, professional look even with frequent reconfigurations.
  • Easy installation with standard patch-panel knockouts — The panel provides knockouts compatible with standard patch panels and connectivity devices, enabling quick, straightforward integration into your existing front-end layout. Installers can align, mount, and secure the panel with conventional hardware, then proceed to load patch panels and devices in a tidy, accessible configuration that supports efficient cable management and routine maintenance.
  • Designed for wide 27"W SNE racks in professional settings — Specifically tailored for SNE racks and a 27"W footprint, this panel fits neatly in 42 RU configurations, delivering a precise fit for professional AV and data environments. It’s ideal for studios, control rooms, data centers, and other spaces where dense front-end connectivity must be paired with reliable airflow management for sustained performance.

Excellent Rivals to Lovers!!
Format: Kindle
The tension and banter between Huntyr and Wold was delectable. I absolutely love the fallen angel and all of his flaws. Huntyr is amazing too being a badass FMC with some major trauma. The world building was great and I enjoyed the training aspect of the story. The writing was immersive and was in the story the whole time. The ending had quite a twist that I hadn’t anticipated and made my jaw DROP. Excellent job! I also loved the narration. Laura is one of my fave narrators!

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!

Interesting take on the genre
Format: Kindle
True rating: 3.25 ⭐️ I enjoyed the fresh take on the genre. The best way I could describe the setting and world is an apocalyptic dystopian version of Farie where vampires, fae, and angles struggle to survive in what is left of the world. It was definitely interesting throwing the academy/hunger games aspect into this world as well. Even though I guessed the final reveal early on in the book, I kept hoping I was wrong, and it would take a surprising turn. While the "plot twists" were a bit predictable to me, I still enjoyed the ride this book took me on. Another downfall for me was the plot holes in the world building... I.E. if society has fallen and the world is in the aftermath of war, how are there trains running around the world? Just to take young adults to the trials to get into the golden city? How is the train maintained, the tracks clear, etc? However, I did enjoy the FMC & MMC and thought they were fleshed out nicely. I also enjoyed the side characters but wish some were developed more like Ashalin (sp?). I do find myself rooting for the MCs to succeed and find happiness together, which is obviously an important aspect for romantasy. Overall, was this an earth-shattering, mind-bending, terrific piece of literature? No. But was it the worst thing I've read this year? Also, no. This book has, to me, the bones of a great read & just needs a bit more to push it from an alright book to a great book. Overall ratings: Plot- 3.5⭐️ World building 3⭐️ Spice 2.5 🌶🌶 Main characters 4 ⭐️ Supporting characters 3.5⭐️

great book
Format: Kindle
I am really excited to meet the author at the book retreat this month. I really enjoyed this world that she built and most of the female main character Huntress is so awesome. She goes through a lot in this book and the ending; wow! I wouldn't have even guessed. I highly recommend everyone to read this book. I have been so lucky this year that almost all the books I have read have been, so far, 5 out 5 stars.
