Figure 1. Isometric Closed View of Boxer‐16 Cabinet
RUs (28”) of 19‐inch wide internal rack space is available to
house Network equipment such as (but not limited to) multi
plexers, copper bonding solutions, Ethernet switches and
media converters, xDSL boxes, and DS3 hand‐offs. Protective
ly mounted on the Boxer front door, separate from the interior
rack space, is a heat exchanger with built‐in fan units.
Boxer‐16 supports rapid equipment installation and wiring
through the use of adjustable and removable 19” rack channels.
An access panel is located at the rear of Boxer‐16 to allow easy
access to the rear of the installed equipment. To ensure easy ac
cess for input and out cabling, Boxer‐16 includes ample room
below the rack space as well as various sized conduit knock‐outs.

Product Mounting
The Boxer‐16 cabinet is typically mounted outdoors, above
ground on an H‐frame, a wall, square pedestal or post (minimum
8” wide), or a round pole (from 8” to 20” in diameter). Floor or
concrete pad mounting is supported when used with an optional
Boxer battery box or skirt. All mounting hardware must be capa
ble of supporting the weight of the Boxer‐16 cabinet plus the
weight of any equipment mounted in it. The Boxer‐16 cabinet is
typically located at the customer premises but can be located
anywhere a compact, weather‐tight, outdoor cabinet is required.
