Frequently Asked Questions
Can this single side panel replace a panel removed during cabinet reconfiguration?
Yes, this panel is specifically designed as a replacement for a panel removed when converting a standard SR48UB into an expansion cabinet, restoring enclosure integrity or asymmetrical installation for special cooling needs.
How does a key locking latch enhance security compared to tool-less latches?
The key lock prevents unauthorized panel removal, adding a security layer suitable for high-security facilities or installations where equipment access must be controlled and audited.
What types of cabinet modifications allow this panel to be useful as a retrofit?
If you have an SR48UBEXP expansion cabinet (open sides) and later want to add side protection or convert it to a standard enclosure, this keyed panel provides a lockable option for one or both sides.
Does installing a single side panel create cooling imbalances?
Asymmetrical panel installation will affect airflow symmetry; monitor equipment intake and exhaust temperatures, and consider front-to-back airflow design or active cooling to compensate for one-sided obstruction.
Is this panel compatible with enclosures other than the 48U models?
This panel is sized for the SR48UB and SR48UB-based cabinets; verify compatibility with Procure.ae if you have a different cabinet model or height (e.g., 45U, 52U) to avoid fit issues.
What happens if a panel latch is damaged or the key is lost?
Contact Procure.ae or Tripp Lite for replacement latches or keyed hardware; damaged latches may require professional service to avoid damaging the panel or frame during attempted removal.
Is this single panel available for immediate shipment, or does it require special order?
Procure.ae can confirm current availability and lead time for the SR48SIDE individual panel; reach out with your delivery location for shipping details.
Can Procure.ae help install a replacement panel on my existing cabinet?
Procure.ae can discuss on-site services; however, panel installation is typically straightforward and may be completed by your local IT staff using the key latch mechanism.
What height is this side panel designed for?
The SR48SIDE is sized for the 48U SmartRack frame; it will not fit 45U, 50U, or other height variants without modification, so verify your cabinet model before ordering.
What material and finish does this panel have?
Contact Procure.ae for details on the SR48SIDE material composition, powder-coat finish, and any UV or corrosion resistance specifications.
Is the key latch included, or is it purchased separately?
The SR48SIDE ships with the key locking latch pre-installed; contact Procure.ae if you need additional keys or replacement latch hardware.
