  • Publication number: 20230269900
    Abstract: A cabinet defined by a frame with front vertical posts, back vertical posts, and front to back beams extending from the front vertical posts to the back vertical posts. Equipment rails are secured to the frame at the front and the back of the cabinet. The equipment rails include vertically orientated holes extending there through. The vertically orientated hole in one of the front equipment rails is aligned with the vertically orientated hole in one of the back equipment rails to create a pathway between the vertically orientated holes. An enclosure is installed in the pathway between the aligned vertically orientated holes thereby connecting the front equipment rail to the back equipment rail.
