Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The Zone 4 Seismic Cabinet protects servers, networking equipment, and
telephony equipment through Zone 4 seismic activity. It’s made of heavy-gauge
welded steel and supports up to 2500 pounds (1134 kg) of equipment. The
cabinet is also ideal for use in high vibration areas or areas with high load
capacities. It conforms to EIA standards for 19" equipment mounting. Use it in
different applications with 19-inch rackmount equipment and fans.
The top of the cabinet features two cable entry ports with caps and grommets,
and two fan-ready cutouts with finger guards. With its “chimney” effect, the
cabinet cools mounted equipment by drawing cool air through louvers and
venting the heated air through the top.
Two models are available:
• RM5100A: 39.37" deep Zone 4 Seismic Cabinet with M6 square mounting rails
• RM5110A: 31.5" deep Zone 4 Seismic Cabinet with 10-32 tapped mounting rails
Mounting hardware is not included.
2.2 Features
• Both front and rear doors are hinged left and equipped with keylock flush
handle and three-point latching.
• Same key provides access to all doors and side panels.
• Doors and side panels can be removed for easier equipment installation and
upgrades.
• Vented, heavy gauge steel base is designed to bolt to floor with seismic-rated
fasteners.
• Has louvers on lower 1⁄3 of rear door for ventiliation.
• The cabinet ships fully assembled.
