Product description
VX IT, 19" mounting angles, standard, front, glazed door, WHD: 800 x 2000 x 600 mm, 42 U
The VX IT enclosure leverages a 42 U interior with 800 mm width, 2000 mm height and 600 mm depth to maximize rack density while preserving serviceability and airflow. This feature delivers a tangible business impact by enabling more devices in a single cabinet, reducing footprint and cabling complexity for automated systems. The glazed front aluminium door with 180° hinges provides clear visibility and easy access for technicians, accelerating maintenance cycles and minimizing downtime in critical control rooms. 482.6 mm (19") mounting angles standard in the VX IT ensure compatibility with a wide range of off-the-shelf 19" equipment, while front mounting and 150 mm front clear space enable cleaner cabling and thermal management. The roof plate is prepared for a fan mounting plate and spacers support passive cooling above the fan cut-out, improving heat dissipation and energy efficiency in high-density IT spaces. Supplying includes mounting hardware, screws and spacers, reducing field procurement and installation time, and facilitating faster, standards-compliant deployments. Constructed from sheet steel with a powder-coated rear and roof, and aluminium front door, the enclosure delivers robust mechanical protection (IK08) and long-term durability, translating to lower replacement costs and reduced lifecycle risk. Overall, the VX IT enclosure offers industry-aligned compatibility with 19" equipment, strong security with profile half-cylinder locks, and a modular design that supports scalable IT and automation architectures.
