Networking Cabinets Wall-Mounted Cabinets 6RU Cabinet Options Switch & Router Storage CCTV & IT Installations
Note: Cabinet selection should be matched to equipment size, rack unit requirements, ventilation, cable access, mounting location and future expansion.

Networking Cabinet Types

Different network installations require different cabinet styles. Wall-mounted, slimline and 6RU cabinet options are commonly used where equipment needs to be organised in a compact and secure location.

Cabinet Type Common Use Best For
X2 Networking Cabinets Rack-style equipment storage for network and security devices. Switches, routers, patch panels, NVRs and structured cabling setups.
Slimline Vertical Wall Cabinets Compact wall-mounted storage where space is limited. Small communications areas, CCTV recorders, modems and compact network equipment.
6RU Single Section Cabinets Six rack units of storage in a single-section cabinet format. Small to mid-sized network installations needing more space than a basic compact cabinet.
Wall-Mounted Cabinets Equipment storage mounted off the floor for cleaner installation. Offices, shops, utility rooms, comms cupboards and security control points.
Quick guide: Choose a cabinet with enough depth and rack space for the equipment, cable bends, power supplies and future upgrades.

X2 Networking Cabinets

X2 cabinets are used for housing networking and security equipment in a more organised rack-style layout. Their cabinet range may include different sizes, rack units and mounting options to suit different installation requirements.

  • Rack-style equipment storage – Suitable for switches, routers, patch panels and selected network devices.
  • Security system support – Useful for CCTV systems, NVRs and networked security equipment.
  • Professional installation finish – Helps keep equipment and cabling tidy, protected and easier to maintain.
  • Wall-mounted options – Suitable for sites where floor space is limited or a compact network area is required.
  • Structured cabling support – Helps organise patch leads, cable routes and network hardware.
  • Residential and commercial use – Suitable for home networks, offices, shops, warehouses and small business installations.

Browse related networking switches and networking cables to complete your cabinet setup.

Installation note: When selecting a rack cabinet, check the equipment depth, cable entry points, ventilation and access requirements before installation.

Slimline Vertical Wall Cabinets

Slimline vertical wall cabinets are a space-saving solution for installations where a standard rack cabinet may be too large. They are designed to be mounted on a wall and are useful for keeping essential networking or CCTV equipment neat and accessible.

  • Space-saving design – Ideal where floor space or wall space is limited.
  • Compact equipment storage – Suitable for selected routers, modems, NVRs, switches and power accessories.
  • Wall-mounted installation – Keeps equipment off benches, floors and open shelves.
  • Cleaner cable layout – Helps reduce clutter around security and network equipment.
  • Good for small systems – Suitable for homes, small offices, retail spaces and compact CCTV installations.
  • Professional appearance – Supports a neater, more organised communications area.
Best for: Slimline cabinets are useful for compact CCTV, modem, router and small network switch installations where a full rack is not required.

How to Choose the Right Networking Cabinet

Choosing the correct networking cabinet helps protect your equipment and makes future servicing easier. Before ordering, consider the size of the system, equipment layout and installation environment.

  • Check rack unit requirements – Confirm whether a 6RU cabinet or another size is suitable for the equipment.
  • Measure equipment depth – Make sure switches, routers, patch panels and NVRs physically fit inside the cabinet.
  • Allow for airflow – Leave space around heat-producing equipment to support ventilation.
  • Plan cable entry – Check where cables enter and exit the cabinet for a neat installation.
  • Allow room for power – Consider power boards, UPS units, power supplies and cable management.
  • Choose the right location – Select a secure, accessible and practical location for maintenance.
  • Plan for expansion – Allow space for extra ports, future devices or additional cabling.

For CCTV installations, browse compatible NVRs, CCTV network switches and UPS power supplies.

Selection note: If the cabinet will house CCTV equipment, allow space for the recorder, switch, modem/router, cables and future camera expansion.
