K&M Stands 28451 Ventilation Panel

Ventilation Panel for Improved Rack Cooling
The K&M 28451 Ventilation Panel is a functional solution designed to promote airflow within your 19-inch rack system. This 1-space panel is essential for setups where thermal management is critical to equipment performance and longevity. Crafted from durable steel and finished in matte black, it blends seamlessly into your existing rack environment while doing the important job of heat dissipation.

Designed to Fit Standard Racks
This 1U ventilation panel fits into any standard 19" rack, providing compatibility across a wide range of studio, live sound, and broadcast configurations. It’s ideal for blanking out unused rack spaces while maintaining essential airflow between power amplifiers, processors, and other heat-generating gear. Its low-profile design ensures your rig stays organized without unnecessary bulk.

Ventilation Slots for Heat Dissipation
Strategically placed ventilation slots across the face of the panel allow hot air to escape and cooler air to circulate. This passive cooling system supports the natural convection cycle, helping prevent thermal buildup around sensitive audio and electronic equipment. It’s a simple but effective way to prolong the lifespan of rack-mounted gear.

Rugged Steel Construction with Professional Finish
Built from high-quality steel, the panel is strong enough to hold its form under stress, making it a dependable component even in road cases or mobile rigs. The black powder-coated finish resists scratches and keeps your rack looking polished in both permanent installs and on-the-go systems.

Ideal for Studio and Live Applications
Whether you're running a server room, outfitting a studio, or managing a FOH rig, this 1-space vented panel serves as a passive yet practical accessory. It helps optimize airflow and keeps your gear operating in its ideal temperature range without requiring powered fans or external cooling equipment.
