Black Box Wallmount Cabinet - 10U, 22"W x 23.5"D, M6 Square Holes
Designed for compact spaces without compromising on protection or accessibility, the Black Box Wallmount Cabinet delivers a sturdy, secure solution for networking gear, AV components, and small form-factor servers. With a clear acrylic window to monitor indicators, standard 19" M6 rails, convenient cable knockouts, and security features, this 10U enclosure is tailor-made for busy offices, classrooms, or light-to-moderate data environments. Its thoughtful ventilation design — top and bottom venting with a quiet, top-mounted fan — ensures reliable cooling while keeping noise levels low. A durable build, lifetime guarantee, and scalable options make this cabinet a dependable choice that grows with your infrastructure needs.
- Secure, visible access: A robust key lock provides reliable security for your equipment while the clear acrylic window lets you rapidly verify status indicators, LED activity, and door state at a glance. This combination minimizes unnecessary door openings and helps you keep critical gear safe in busy spaces.
- Standard rails and streamlined cabling: Equipped with standard 19" rails and M6 mounting holes, this cabinet accommodates a wide range of rack-mounted devices — from switches and patch panels to small servers. Cable knockouts simplify orderly cable management, enable clean entry and exit points for power and data, and improve airflow to reduce heat buildup inside the enclosure.
- Efficient cooling for reliable performance: Top and bottom venting holes support passive ventilation, while the low-noise, top-mounted fan actively moves air through the enclosure. This thoughtful cooling arrangement helps maintain stable operating temperatures, extends component life, and minimizes fan noise in shared workspaces or classrooms.
- Compact, scalable design for diverse setups: With a 10U rack height and overall dimensions of 22 inches wide by 23.5 inches deep, this cabinet fits snugly against walls in tight rooms while still providing ample space for cable management and airflow. It’s also available in 6U and 8U heights, giving you flexibility to match different equipment stacks and future growth without replacing the enclosure.
- Durable, long-term investment with a lifetime guarantee: Built for daily use in professional environments, the cabinet combines robust materials and precise engineering to resist daily wear. The lifetime guarantee reinforces confidence in your purchase, helping you protect your hardware investment and maintain stable operations over years of use.

how to install Black Box Wallmount Cabinet
- Step 1: Choose a location that can support the cabinet’s weight and equipment, ideally securing it to wall studs or using appropriate anchors rated for your wall type. Plan for sufficient clearance around the door, cables, and ventilation openings.
- Step 2: Prepare the installation area by laying out network and power cables, identifying entry points for knockouts, and ensuring a power source that complies with your equipment’s needs. Keep tools handy for quick mounting and cable management.
- Step 3: Attach the mounting rails or wall brackets according to the manufacturer’s instructions, making sure they are level and aligned with the 19" device footprint. Confirm that the rails can support the intended equipment depth and weight distribution.
- Step 4: With the rails secured, gently slide and fasten your devices onto the rails, beginning with deeper components toward the back to preserve balance and airflow. Use cage nuts or appropriate hardware for secure mounting and verify that all devices seat properly on the rails.
- Step 5: Route cables through the knockouts, connect power and data lines, close the door, and engage the key lock. Power on the equipment and check the acrylic window for indicators. Ensure airflow paths are unobstructed and that the top-mounted fan operates quietly to maintain steady temperatures.
