  • Publication number: 20040189157
    Abstract: An apparatus for retrofitting an enclosure with a cabinet for digital service access equipment allows digital access equipment disposed in the cabinet to be accessible for coupling to other equipment disposed in the enclosure. The apparatus comprises a bracket, a wireway, and a fastener. The bracket is configured to attach to a substantially vertical surface of the enclosure. The attachment of the bracket to the enclosure provides a support for the cabinet. The wireway enables an interior of the enclosure to be coupled to an interior of the cabinet if the cabinet is attached to the bracket. The fastener attaches the cabinet to the bracket.
