9U Outdoor Network Cabinet – IP66 Rated (Multiple Configurations)
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The 9U Outdoor Network Cabinet is engineered for demanding outdoor deployments where equipment protection, thermal stability, and installation flexibility are critical. Designed for telecom infrastructure, fiber optic networks, surveillance systems, and industrial communication applications, this enclosure delivers true IP55 - IP66 weatherproof protection against dust, heavy rain, and water exposure.
Unlike standard enclosures limited by fixed dimensions and mounting constraints, this cabinet is offered in multiple configurations, allowing you to select the correct depth and mounting type based on your specific application. Whether your project requires a compact footprint or deeper internal space for larger equipment, this system is built to adapt without compromising protection or performance.
The 9U platform supports multiple cooling strategies. The enclosure is designed to accommodate fan systems and air conditioning units, allowing it to handle moderate to high heat loads. You can find the model that best suits your needs under the “Air Conditioners” page in the Products section. If you cannot find what you are looking for, please do not hesitate to contact us.
CUSTOM MANUFACTURING
If your project requires specific dimensions, materials, or finishes beyond the standard configurations, custom production is available.
Custom options include stainless steel or aluminum construction, custom colors, modified dimensions, rear access and additional cutouts for integration.
Lead time for custom-built units is typically 4–6 weeks, allowing you to match the enclosure exactly to your project requirements.
CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
This product is available in two primary configurations. Please select the appropriate option from the dropdown menu based on your equipment size, mounting preference, and installation environment.
STV-HC-9U450
18” Depth (450 mm) Pole, Wall and Floor Mount
This configuration is designed for standard outdoor networking applications where space efficiency and reliable protection are required. With a depth of 18”, it provides sufficient room for most network switches, fiber termination panels, and telecom equipment while maintaining a compact and manageable footprint.
The enclosure is IP55 and IP66-rated, ensuring full protection against dust and strong water exposure such as heavy rain or pressurized water. It is suitable for floor or pad-mounted installations and supports fan-based airflow as well as advanced cooling solutions when required.
This option is ideal for projects where equipment size is moderate, but environmental conditions still demand high protection and reliability.
STV-HC-9U600
24” Depth (600 mm) – Pole, Wall & Floor Mount
The 24” depth configuration is designed for larger equipment and more complex installations requiring additional internal space and flexible mounting options. This model supports pole mounting and wall mounting in addition to pad mounting with the use of the plinth making it highly adaptable for telecom poles, roadside installations, and elevated deployments.
With increased internal volume, this configuration allows better cable management, improved airflow, and compatibility with larger devices. Like all models in this series, it is fully IP55 & IP66-rated, providing protection against dust ingress and strong water exposure.
This configuration is recommended for telecom infrastructure, edge computing equipment, and applications where mounting flexibility and internal space are critical
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The cabinet is built using galvanized steel with an outdoor-grade powder-coated finish, ensuring long-term durability and resistance to corrosion. It supports standard 19-inch rack-mounted equipment with a total capacity of 9U.
External dimensions are approximately 24 inches (600 mm) in width and 25 inches (635 mm) in height, with depth varying between 18 inches (450 mm) and 24 inches (600 mm) depending on the selected configuration.
The enclosure includes secure locking mechanisms, sealed door construction, and integrated cable entry points. It is compatible with fan modules, heat exchangers, and air conditioning systems, making it suitable for a wide range of thermal conditions.
WEATHERPROOF PROTECTION
All configurations are IP55 -IP66-rated, providing a high level of protection in outdoor environments. This includes complete resistance to dust and strong protection against water exposure such as heavy rain and direct water jets.
This level of weatherproof performance ensures reliable operation in exposed environments including roadside installations, industrial facilities, and telecom infrastructure deployments.
THERMAL MANAGEMENT
The 9U platform supports multiple cooling strategies. The enclosure is designed to accommodate fan systems and air conditioning units, allowing it to handle moderate to high heat loads.
Our air conditioners are available in a wide range of capacities and features, with models ranging from 1,000 BTU to 19,000 BTU. Options include cooling-only units, as well as models with additional heating and dehumidification functions. Remote access features such as Ethernet or RS485 connectivity are also available.
