Constructed from aluminum and steel with a black finish, it provides a compact 482.6 mm width and a minimum mounting depth of 390 mm, and weighs 7.14 kg. The front panel can be folded over to accommodate keyboards up to 430 mm wide and 250 mm deep.

Advantages

Durable mixed-material construction combines aluminum and steel for strength and reduced weight. The 2U format and standard 482.6 mm width ensure compatibility with common rack systems. A fold-over front panel allows temporary placement of a compact keyboard without additional brackets.

How to use

Install the enclosure into a standard 19" rack using appropriate rack-mount screws and ensure the minimum mounting depth of 390 mm is available. Mount electronic components inside according to their manufacturer guidelines and secure them to internal mounting points. When needed, fold the front panel over to place a compact keyboard (maximum 430×250 mm) on the panel; ensure the keyboard is stable and will not obstruct ventilation or cables.

Recommendations

Verify rack depth and internal clearances before installation, follow grounding and ventilation best practices, and avoid placing heavy or permanently mounted devices on the folded front panel—use it only for temporary keyboard placement.
