FEATURES
This section describes the exterior and interior features of the
Westell Boxer
r
outdoor cabinet in more detail. Refer to
Figure 2 through Figure 11 as needed while reading this section.
2.1
Exterior Features
The features located outside the large main cabinet are de
scribed hereunder. See Paragraph 2.2 for the interior features.
2.1.1
Construction and Materials
The Boxer‐16 cabinet is designed to be weather‐tight for above‐
ground applications. As such, the powder‐coat painted alumi
num cabinet withstands many harsh weather conditions such as
rain, snow, and sleet.
2.1.2
Cabinet
The cabinet utilizes an “in‐the‐door” heat exchanger design.
Cabinet cooling is accomplished through the front‐door‐
mounted heat exchanger, fans, and vents. Security is provided
via a 2‐point latch, a tamper‐proof screw‐lock, and a padlock
hasp. Side‐wall lift ears (Paragraph 2.1.2.5) are provided for
temporary installation lift‐assistance. The bottom floor of the
main cabinet contains numerous, differently‐sized, intact
knock‐outs (Paragraph 2.1.2.6) to accommodate a variety of
cable, fitting, or conduit sizes and types.

2.1.2.1
Large Cabinet Door
A full‐size locking door provides ample technician and equip
ment access to the interior of the cabinet and also helps protect
the cabinet from tampering and vandalism. When the cabinet is
mounted and the door is open, the clearance or distance from
the back of the cabinet to the outer edge of the open door is
approximately 43.5” (as shown in Figure 3). The cabinet's cool
ing system is based in the door, with screened holes, a heat
exchanger and fans mounted in the door. At the inside bottom
of the door, near the hinge, a wind‐latch, shown in Figure 2, pro
tects the door (and technician) from possible wind damage. The
wind latch restricts the door's swing‐out angle to a safe but func
tional opening (95 degrees). In the closed position, the inside
perimeter of the door abuts a gasket installed around the outer
perimeter of the cabinet's door opening. When the door is
closed and tightened, the door and gasket provide a weather‐
