Description
Enhanced Protection through the RuggedEnclosure™
The RuggedEnclosure™ is a tough, welded aluminum, hard mount enclosure built to house RuggedCom networking products and provide MIL-STD ratings for shock and vibration, emissions, immunity, temperature and humidity. Ten external patch panels with up to 64 MIL grade round connectors provide tremendous flexibility and allow the RuggedEnclosure™ to be employed in many diverse applications. A variety of patch panel cable assemblies allow convenient and simple mapping from internal electronics to outside world. The RuggedEnclosure™ is rated for IP65 ingress protection meaning that it is dust tight and can withstand water from a nozzle in any direction. Constructed with aluminum extrusions with fins on both sides combined with high reliability internal circulation fans optimizes heat transfer without exchange of outside air and improves MTBF for the enclosed electronics. The combination of the RuggedEnclosure™ and the MX5000 RuggedBackbone™ provides an extremely flexible package that has MIL-STD approvals and continues RuggedCom’s tradition of pioneering advanced networking solutions specifically for the harsh environments found in Military applications.
