Product Overview

The STURDX Climate Series™ 42U IP66 Weatherproof Outdoor Network Cabinet with Air Conditioner (24" × 40" / 600 × 1000 mm) is engineered for outdoor installations where high equipment density, dependable climate control, and long-term reliability are essential. Designed for telecommunications, industrial automation, fiber optic infrastructure, utilities, renewable energy, transportation, and critical communications, this enclosure protects valuable electronics from heat, humidity, airborne contaminants, rain, and demanding environmental conditions.

Manufactured from heavy-duty galvanized steel with an insulated thermal design, the Climate Series™ creates a stable operating environment for networking and electrical equipment while providing the additional enclosure depth required for today's larger switches, UPS systems, industrial controllers, and structured cabling.

Every STURDX Climate Series™ cabinet is built around our exclusive STURDX Hybrid Cooling Ready™ platform. The enclosure operates as a sealed closed-loop cooling system when equipped with an air conditioner, while factory-installed removable blanking plates preserve the option to add filtered fan ventilation later if future operating conditions or seasonal temperatures make passive airflow a practical alternative.

More Room for Critical Equipment

The 24" × 40" (600 × 1000 mm) enclosure is designed for installations where additional internal depth improves both equipment layout and long-term serviceability.

The larger interior provides valuable space for:

  • High-capacity Ethernet switches

  • Fiber optic backbone equipment

  • Rack-mounted UPS systems

  • Industrial automation hardware

  • Power distribution equipment

  • Battery backup systems

  • Organized cable management

  • Future network expansion

Additional depth also improves airflow around installed equipment while making routine maintenance easier.


STURDX Hybrid Cooling Ready™

The Climate Series™ is engineered to provide flexibility throughout the life of the enclosure.

Every cabinet leaves the factory configured for sealed closed-loop air conditioning while retaining the ability to support optional filtered fan ventilation through factory-prepared fan openings.

Depending on equipment heat load and seasonal temperatures, operators may choose the cooling strategy best suited to their application without permanently modifying the enclosure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a 24" × 40" climate-controlled cabinet?

The larger enclosure depth provides additional space for deeper equipment, improved cable routing, higher-capacity UPS systems, battery backup, and future expansion while maintaining a relatively compact cabinet width.


What is STURDX Hybrid Cooling Ready™?

STURDX Hybrid Cooling Ready™ is our factory-prepared cooling platform that supports both sealed closed-loop air conditioning and optional filtered fan ventilation. Every Climate Series™ cabinet includes removable blanking plates that allow optional fan kits to be added later without modifying the enclosure.


Can I reduce energy consumption during cooler months?

Depending on equipment heat load and ambient conditions, optional filtered fan ventilation may provide sufficient cooling during cooler seasons. When additional cooling is required, the enclosure can quickly return to sealed closed-loop air-conditioned operation.


Are galvanized and stainless steel air conditioners available?

Yes. Standard enclosure air conditioners are available with either galvanized steel or stainless steel housings. STURDX also offers Made in USA IP66 stainless steel air conditioners for projects requiring BABA-compliant or U.S.-manufactured cooling systems.


Why are the fan openings covered?

The removable blanking plates maintain the enclosure's sealed cooling performance while preserving the flexibility to add optional filtered fan ventilation in the future if operating requirements change.


Does the cabinet include lifting eyebolts?

Yes. Every floor-standing Climate Series™ cabinet includes factory-installed lifting eyebolts for safer transportation, unloading, crane lifting, and installation.


Can this cabinet be customized?

Absolutely. STURDX Climate Series™ cabinets are available with custom dimensions, electrical integration, OEM branding, cable entry modifications, enclosure cooling options, and project-specific accessories to meet virtually any outdoor application.
