The LX cabinet system from Legrand is a comprehensive platform designed to address the most demanding enterprise data center applications with superior modular cable management and scalable airflow management, simplified access and engineered integration with copper and fiber connectivity to maximize network uptime. Manufactured in the U.S. on the East and West coasts, lead times and the carbon footprint for delivery have been minimized. With each facility having extensive engineering and manufacturing teams, Legrand® is able to create purpose built solutions for customer-specific applications with a range of security options.
To ensure maximum network performance, the LX cable management systems protect patch cords, cable, and equipment ports from damage by maintaining proper bend radius requirements, reducing tension on plugs and jacks, protecting network equipment ports, and supporting large cable bundles within the cabinet.
The LX frame structure and cable management systems are fully equipped to handle the density of today’s high performance networks while allowing for easy moves, adds, and changes. The LX cabinet cable management system provides ample capacity for a minimum of 48 Category 6a patch cords per rack unit on a single side of the equipment, which is often necessary to avoid a fan tray, power supply or other removable part of the equipment.
The heat generated from increased server densities and higher speed network equipment makes cooling a top concern for today’s IT administrators and data center managers. With heat being the most common reason for equipment failures, proper cooling is essential to reliable operations. Designed specifically to improve airflow, the LX cabinet design enables more efficient cooling and reduces power consumption.
