FAQs
Begin with confirming the 600x1200x800 mm footprint fits your space and door clearance. Install the 19" mounting angles (482.6 mm) to standardize equipment mounting, then mount side panels and roof plate. Connect the rear concealed cable entry to organize cabling before adding any fans. Finally, place equipment in sequence to maintain proper airflow and cable routing. This approach minimizes repositioning and supports a clean, scalable IT cabinet setup.
The 600x1200x800 mm format with 24U lets you place multiple servers, switches, and storage modules within a compact volume. With 445 mm interlevel spacing, you can balance reader-friendly cable runs and airflow paths. The roof plate supports fan mounting, enabling targeted cooling where hot air concentrates, which helps prevent hotspots in dense configurations and improves overall system reliability.
Yes, TX CableNet supports high-density deployments thanks to its roof plate and rear concealed cable entry, which streamline cable routing and facilitate airflow management. The enclosure is prepared for a fan module, allowing you to add cooling capacity without restructuring the cabinet. Use the glazed front for visual monitoring while keeping airflow paths clear to maximize cooling efficiency.
The TX CableNet enclosure provides IP20 protection, suitable for indoor, dry environments. It uses robust sheet steel construction with a powder-coated finish for durability in industrial settings. The design aligns with European market expectations, including CE-type conformity, ensuring regulatory compatibility for compliant IT installations across many facilities.
ROI improves through higher equipment density per cabinet, reducing floor space and associated cooling costs. The 24U capacity and standard 19" mounting angles simplify inventory and maintenance, while the durable powder-coated sheet steel reduces replacement cycles. The glazed door supports quick monitoring, decreasing the need for door openings and potential wear, contributing to lower maintenance overhead over time.
