Series 300 Physical Planning Guide Panduit reference documentation
Panduit reference documentation
This topic provides links to Panduit cabinet and POU documentation.
Panduit cabinet documentationThe Panduit cabinet is custom for VCE but is very similar to Panduit part number S722C129F. The primary
differences between this cabinet and the VCE cabinet are:
No branding
Not dynamic
Does not include caster
For more information about the Panduit cabinet, refer to:

Customer PDF www.panduit.com/groups/MPM-BR/documents/PartDrawing/CMSCONT_037357.pdf
The customer PDF includes all similar cabinets of the same style with slight option variationsand two heights. VCE uses the 700 mm x 42 RU size.

Cabinet specifications
Vblock Panduit NetSERV cabinets come with locking front and back cabinet doors that use the same key.
Keys are shipped attached with cable ties to the front door. Cabinets are shipped with two side panels. The
cabinets are designed to be built contiguously and to be bolted together. Because of this, there is no need for
side panels between the cabinets.
Note: Note: We do not encourage customers to put space between the cabinets. Doing this would require
an extended lead time on the order as the cross-abinet connections would not reach and custom
cables would need to be ordered.
Panduit does extensive testing to ensure the casters can support the cabinet weight and up to 2000 pounds of
equipment.
The following illustration shows the Vblock Panduit cabinet dimensions:
