Panduit CNLTD21B2 Cabinet Inlet Duct for Cisco

Product Description

The PANDUIT CNLTD21B2 is a cabinet inlet duct designed to direct and manage airflow at the intake point of compatible network cabinets. It channels cool air into the cabinet enclosure, supporting proper thermal management for active networking hardware. This component is specified for Cisco cabinet installations and is typically sourced and installed by low-voltage network technicians or structured cabling professionals. Proper airflow management at the cabinet inlet reduces the risk of heat buildup around sensitive switching and routing equipment.

The CNLTD21B2 is suited for data center and enterprise networking environments where cabinet-level airflow control is required. It is intended for use with Cisco cabinet configurations and supports containment strategies that separate hot and cold air zones. It is sold individually as a single unit.
