Abstract:
A network cabinet is provided comprising an electronic component positioned within the network cabinet. The electronic component comprises means for generating a side-to-side airflow for cooling heat generating components within the electronic component and a side exhaust vent. The network cabinet further comprises a duct system comprising first and second duct members wherein the first duct member defines a first opening aligned with the side exhaust vent, such that the first duct member receives side exhaust air therefrom. The second duct member extends from the first duct member, beyond the rear of the electronic component within the network cabinet, and defines a second opening facing the rear of the network cabinet. As a result, the first and second duct members provide a conduit for directing airflow from the side exhaust vent to the rear of the network cabinet.
Abstract:
An apparatus for mounting electronic equipment is provided having a base frame and an equipment rail mounted to the base frame by a threaded member, which provides an electrical bond between the base frame and the equipment rail.
Abstract:
A network cabinet is provided comprising first and second doors. The first door is positioned on a side of the cabinet and comprises first and second opposing lateral sides that each comprise a retractable hinge that permits the first door to rotate about either of the hinges. The second door is positioned on another side of the cabinet and comprises opposing lateral sides wherein at least one of the lateral sides comprises a hinge that permits the door to rotate about the hinge.

Abstract:
A network cabinet is provided comprising a door comprising first and second opposing lateral sides. A hinge lever is rotatably connected to the door and a retractable hinge pin is connected to the hinge lever and is positioned closer to the first lateral side of the door than the second lateral side. A lever stop is also connected to the door and is associated with the hinge lever. The lever stop prevents retraction of the hinge pin from an extended position with the second lateral side of the door in an open position.
Abstract:
A wall mount cabinet (22) is disclosed. The wall mount cabinet (22) includes a rear section (36) having a first end and a second end, and a front section (34) hingedly connected to the rear section (36) at a pivot point (38). The rear section (36) has a cutout area (66) adjacent the first end, and the cutout area (66) allows access for cables (28) to enter the cabinet (22). The pivot point (38) is adjacent the cutout area (66) and the first end of the rear section (36). The cutout area (66) allows cables (28) to rotate about the pivot point (38) when the cabinet (22) is moved from a closed position to an open position.
Abstract:
A network cabinet comprising an electronic component a duct positioned therein. The electronic component has at least one exhaust vent and the duct defines first and second openings. The first opening aligns with the exhaust vent such that the duct receives exhaust therefrom and the duct extends from the first opening toward a side of the network cabinet such that the second opening faces the side of the cabinet to direct the exhaust thereto.
