Digitus Vented blank panel DN-97694 for 482.6 mm 19-inch enclosures with hinge and ventilation grille made of steel in light grey

The Digitus vented blank panel is designed specifically for 482.6 mm 19-inch rack enclosures and server cabinets. This 2U blanking plate effectively covers unused height units while its integrated ventilation grille and slots ensure optimized air circulation and thermal management within the enclosure. Constructed from robust sheet steel with a light grey finish, the panel includes a convenient hinge mechanism that allows for easier handling and simplified front access during maintenance without requiring complete removal of the panel.

Advantages

The inclusion of a built-in hinge makes routine maintenance significantly faster and more convenient by allowing quick access behind the panel. The ventilation grille promotes continuous airflow to prevent heat accumulation in critical areas of the rack. Made from durable steel, the panel offers long-lasting structural integrity and reliable performance in professional network environments. Its clean light grey appearance maintains a uniform and professional look across all installed rack components.

Suitable for

• Closing unused height units in 19-inch server and network racks

When it may not be suitable

This panel is not suitable for enclosures that do not conform to standard 482.6 mm 19-inch mounting dimensions or profile rails. It should also be avoided in applications where completely sealed compartments are required, as the integrated ventilation grille permits airflow.
