Panduit reference documentation

This topic provides links to Panduit cabinet and POU documentation.

Panduit cabinet documentationThe Panduit cabinet is custom for VCE but is very similar to Panduit part number S722C129F. The primary

differences between this cabinet and the VCE cabinet are:

No branding

Not dynamic

Does not include caster

For more information about the Panduit cabinet, refer to:

Customer PDF www.panduit.com/groups/MPM-BR/documents/PartDrawing/CMSCONT_037357.pdf

The customer PDF includes all similar cabinets of the same style with slight option variationsand two heights. VCE uses the 700 mm x 42 RU size.

Note: Weights include 386 lbs for the cabinet. These specifications do not include RecoverPoint appliances.

Shipping weights

To determine the total shipping weight for a particular Vblock, add the packing materials and othercomponents for a particular system as specified in the Cabinet specifications.

Cisco Unified Computing System Power Calculator

To calculate the current draw and heat dissipation of each blade in a specific configuration, use the Cisco

Unified Computing System Power calculator at

Physical specifications and requirements Series 300 Physical Planning Guide

Blade power consumption

For information about calculating blade power consumption, refer to the Vblock™ Infrastructure Platforms

Blade Packs Reference.

Cabinet specifications

Vblock Panduit NetSERV cabinets come with locking front and back cabinet doors that use the same key.

Keys are shipped attached with cable ties to the front door. Cabinets are shipped with two side panels. The

cabinets are designed to be built contiguously and to be bolted together. Because of this, there is no need for

side panels between the cabinets.

Note: Note: We do not encourage customers to put space between the cabinets. Doing this would require

an extended lead time on the order as the cross-abinet connections would not reach and custom

cables would need to be ordered.

Panduit does extensive testing to ensure the casters can support the cabinet weight and up to 2000 pounds of

equipment.

The following illustration shows the Vblock Panduit cabinet dimensions:

http://media.vceportal.com/documents/Guide_BladePacks.pdf










The following cabinet specifications are for a Panduit Vblock cabinet without any equipment loaded:

Measure Specification

Total shipping weight 667 pounds based on the following weights:

Cabinet = 386 pounds

Pallet = 137 pounds

Two side panels = 100 pounds

Packaging = 44 pounds

Floor footprint 27.55 inches (700 mm) wide x 47.20 inches (1200 mm) deep (for general sizing, use 28inches wide x 48 inches deep)
