Remote enclosure systems and methods of production thereof
Remote enclosure systems have now been designed that meet the following goals: a) consolidate electrical terminations in one system; b) pre-terminate AC and DC equipment loads before site installation; c) provide multiple access points for facilitating equipment repair and installation; d) are easily configurable and expanded through the use of a modular frame design that accommodates a variety of customized side panels or the attachment of a variety of expansion cabinets; e) are aesthetically functional given the cable entry and routing structure; f) provide exceptional thermal management and g) reduce problems inherent in conventional electronic setups. Remote enclosure systems contemplated generally include: a) a frame system further comprising at least two side panels; b) at least one door coupled to the frame system; c) a cable management top assembly coupled to the frame system; d) at least one removable radio frequency (RF) management system.
1. A remote enclosure system, comprising:
a frame system comprising at least two side panels and a top portion;
at least one door coupled to the frame system;
a cable management assembly separate from and coupled to the top portion of the frame system, wherein the cable management top assembly comprises an internal space such that cables and other electronic connections can be stored in the internal space of the cable management top assembly or can be routed into or out of the internal space of the frame system into the internal space of the cable management top assembly;
at least one radio frequency (RF) management system or assembly coupled to at least one of the side panels, the frame system, the cable management assembly or combinations thereof, wherein the at least one radio frequency (RF) management system manages RF signals; and
a bottom panel coupled to the frame system.
