Middle Atlantic SNE30H-4536-A1 – 30"W 45U 36"D Hybrid Security Network Enclosure

Product Overview

The Middle Atlantic SNE30H-4536-A1 is a 30" wide, 45U, 36" deep hybrid security network enclosure designed for commercial AV installations that house analog and digital equipment in a single rack. Its 36" depth suits equipment rooms and rack closets where a full 42" deep enclosure will not fit, while the extra-wide 30" frame preserves side channel space for power and cabling. As an SNE Series pre-configured enclosure, it ships with active thermal management, dual mounting systems, and cable management hardware installed, and it is UL listed and seismic certified for compliance-driven projects.

Product Description

Hybrid AV and IT systems demand more mounting flexibility than a standard rack provides. The SNE30H-4536-A1 includes two pairs of adjustable 10-32 tapped rackrail for conventional AV components, plus a four-space cage-nut adaptor pair for network switches, servers, and other equipment that requires cage-nut mounting. The 30" width creates dedicated vertical zones beside the rackrail for power distribution, vertical cable runs, and accessory mounting without sacrificing rack spaces.

Cooling is handled by an included 660 CFM fan top with a proportional thermostatic controller, pre-configured for top active ventilation. The 70% open front door draws air across installed equipment while the solid top directs exhaust through the fan top, and fan speed scales with heat load to limit noise in occupied buildings. Split flush-mount locking side panels secure the contents and remove quickly during service.

The enclosure is Lever Lock compatible and includes two vertical 10" wide Lever Lock accessory mounting plates for tool-free installation of power strips and small devices. A 6" wide vertical wire grid lace strip keeps cabling organized and serviceable. Four casters ease positioning during rack integration and four leveling feet provide a stable permanent installation.
