Tripp Lite SmartRack Industrial Enclosure – NEMA 3R Wall Mount, 9U, 28" Depth

Upgrade your network and industrial infrastructure with the Tripp Lite SmartRack Industrial Enclosure. This rugged, space-saving wall-mount enclosure is specifically designed to protect and organize 19-inch rack-mount gear in tight spaces—from machine rooms to data closets. Constructed of durable steel with a gray powder-coated finish, the SRN3RG9US combines security, reliability, and efficient cooling to keep network switches, patch panels, and other rack equipment running smoothly. With a generous 28-inch internal depth, it accommodates a wide range of equipment while maintaining a compact footprint. Whether you’re building a small office network or deploying an industrial control network in a harsh environment, this enclosure delivers the combination of protection, accessibility, and ease of installation that IT and facilities teams demand.

• Space-saving wall-mount design for 19-inch rack equipment. The enclosure supports up to 9U of equipment, making it ideal for compact data closets, industrial facilities, and wall-mounted network cabinets. Its thoughtful depth (28 inches) provides ample room for cabling and cable-management while preserving floor space. You’ll be able to consolidate switches, patch panels, power distribution, and small servers within a single, secure enclosure, reducing clutter and improving airflow in tight installations.
• Rugged steel construction with a durable gray powder-coated finish. Built to withstand demanding environments, the enclosure features a robust metal chassis that resists impact and corrosion. The powder-coated exterior not only protects against wear and tear but also enhances longevity in industrial settings where dust and humidity are common. This finish maintains a professional appearance while delivering dependable protection for sensitive equipment.
• Locking, hinged back panel for secure, easy access. The hinged back panel provides convenient installation and maintenance access while the locking mechanism deters tampering. This combination enhances security in shared spaces or public-facing locations, giving your IT team confidence that critical gear remains protected when you’re not actively servicing it.
• Integrated cooling with a fan and thermal switch to prevent overheating. Equipment inside confined spaces can generate heat quickly. The built-in fan with a thermal switch helps maintain appropriate temperatures, protecting components and extending their lifespan. This feature is especially valuable in environments with limited airflow or high equipment density.
• Designed for reliability in industrial and commercial environments. The enclosure is purpose-built to house 9U of 19-inch rack-mount equipment, including network switches, patch panels, and related infrastructure. Its NEMA 3R rating provides protection against rain, dust, and other environmental elements, making it suitable for both indoor rooms and sheltered outdoor locations. The combination of sturdy construction, secure access, and thoughtful cable-management options helps simplify deployment and ongoing maintenance.

How to Install Tripp Lite by Eaton SmartRack Industrial Enclosure

• Plan the installation location: Choose a sturdy wall with access to power and adequate ventilation. Verify stud locations and assess the wall’s load-bearing capacity to support the enclosure and any mounted equipment.
• Prepare mounting hardware: Use appropriate anchors or screws rated for your wall material. If mounting directly to studs, ensure you have enough fasteners to securely support the enclosure’s weight and the anticipated equipment load.
• Mount the enclosure to the wall: With a partner, lift the enclosure into place and align it with studs or anchor points. Fasten securely, ensuring the unit sits plumb and stable before proceeding to equipment installation.
• Install 19-inch rack-mount rails and equipment: Attach rack rails according to the manufacturer’s instructions, then mount switches, patch panels, and other equipment within the 9U space. Route cables neatly through built-in cable pathways to minimize obstruction and maximize airflow.
• Close, lock, and power up: Close the hinged back panel, engage the locking mechanism, and connect power and network cabling. Verify that the cooling fan operates as the enclosure warms, and perform a basic equipment check to confirm proper operation and cable connectivity.
• Test and maintain: After installation, monitor temperatures to confirm the thermal switch and fan are maintaining safe levels. Periodically inspect locking mechanisms, cable management, and door alignment to ensure ongoing protection and accessibility.
