ThinLine Wall-Mount CabinetEnclosed Wall-Mount Cabinets provide added physical security and are available in vertical, hinged, and floor supported designs. Vertical cabinets, such as the ThinLine™ II Wall-Mount Cabinet shown on the right, hold equipment against the wall to minimize the depth of the cabinet. Use vertical cabinets to support a small group of network users. 

Cube-iT Plus Wall-Mount CabinetHinged cabinets, such as the Cube-iT Plus shown on the left, provide access to the front and the rear of equipment. The cabinet body is hinged near the wall and can swing open to access cable terminations and the rear of the equipment. Floor-supported cabinets are also hinged, but the cabinet body is supported from the floor with casters.

Floor-supported wall cabinets can hold more weight than wall-mounted hinged cabinets and are used to replace a freestanding rack in small rooms where added equipment security is required.

Use the Wall-Mount Cabinet Product Configurator to determine the best style and size for your application.

Whether you are tight on space in your TR or looking for a secure IDF Cabinet to place in a classroom lab, our wall-mount solutions provide a lot of value in a little space.

Contact your local sales representative for on-site demonstrations or assistance for your next project.
