Electronic enclosure and mounting arrangement therefor

摘要

An electronic enclosure (10) adapted to be mounted in an electronics equipment rack (12) wherein the electronics equipment rack (12) is of a predetermined width which is in part defined by the distance between two mounting members (24) which form part of the equipment rack (12). The enclosure (10) is configured to house one or more electronic components which are operatively coupled to provide a specific function. The electronic enclosure (10) comprises two opposing sides (20, 22) which define the width thereof. The width of the electronic enclosure (10) is proportionally smaller than the predetermined width of the electronics equipment rack (12). The electronic enclosure is removably secured to only one of the mounting members (24) of the electronics equipment rack (12) such that an available space (38) is provided alongside the electronic enclosure (10) when it is mounted in the electronics equipment rack (12).
