Charles - Model CUBE PM Series -Pad Mount Equipment Cabinets
Pad Mount Equipment Cabinets (CUBE PM Series) are designed specifically to protect high density installations of network equipment in outdoor environments and are ideal for wireless, wireline, and utility applications. Pad Mount Equipment Cabinets are ideally suited for Macro Cell Site and Centralized Radio Access Network (CRAN) applications. With the strong push to roll out LTE, 5G, C band and/or edge servers, large numbers of new macro cells are being built. Cell site equipment has gotten smaller and more efficient over the years, and movement towards CRAN architecture further reduces the footprint. Charles has developed a line of solutions to assist these deployments with rugged and compact enclosures for today’s dynamic cell site needs. Various thermal options are available to ensure your equipment is protected and your site is reliable, including heat exchangers and air conditioners.
CUBE Pad Mount Equipment (PM), Site Support (SS) and Battery Backup (BB) Series cabinets combine to form a complete macro site solution set. Equipment can be placed in the PM cabinet, while power and battery equipment is combined in the SS enclosures. A standalone BB cabinet may be utilized to provide additional reserve capacity. All three of these cabinet series are built to the same height, width and depth dimensions to provide an aesthetically pleasing lineup that facilitates uniform space requirements.
