Before installing the system cabinet, you should familiarize yourself with its features. You must also
verify that your site can support the system cabinet, move it to the desired location, and then unpack
it.
System cabinet features
The system cabinet consists of side panels, front and rear doors, an optional bolt-down kit, an
optional interconnect kit, PDUs for your equipment, and an integrated cable management system.
