Middle Atlantic SNE24-CLVD-42 Vented Rack Enclosure 42U

Product Description

The MIDDLE ATLANTIC - U.S. - LEGRAND SNE24-CLVD-42 is a 42U vented rack enclosure designed for structured cabling, AV, and network equipment installations. Built at 24 inches wide, it features vented front and rear doors to support passive airflow and thermal management of rack-mounted gear. This type of enclosure is standard in server rooms, telecom closets, and commercial AV racks where equipment density and cable management are primary concerns. Installation is typically performed by systems integrators, low-voltage contractors, or IT infrastructure technicians working to organize and protect rack-mounted hardware.

This enclosure is suited for commercial and residential structured wiring applications where a 42U form factor is required. The vented door configuration on both the front and rear makes it appropriate for environments housing active networking gear, patch panels, and AV equipment that require continuous airflow. It ships as a single unit and is intended for permanent or semi-permanent installation in a dedicated equipment room or rack bay.
