Communication cabinet usually refers to the cabinet used in communication, mostly made of sheet metal processing, mainly to protect the internal parts. According to different use requirements, the design of communication cabinet has strict requirements in appearance and structure.

Reasonable overall size. As the shell of the product, the communication cabinet can provide space for storage devices such as power supply, motherboard, various expansion boards, floppy disk drives, optical disk drives, hard disk drives, etc., and these parts are firmly fixed inside the chassis through supports, brackets, various screws or clip clips and other connectors inside the chassis, thus forming an intensive whole, enabling the normal operation of all parts and ensuring the realization of product functions. In the process of communication cabinet design, designers should determine the overall size of the cabinet according to specific product requirements, provide reasonable space for the configuration of internal parts, and avoid waste of resources caused by too large or too small space as much as possible.

The structural design of the communication cabinet should be compact and firm, with good compression resistance, impact resistance, screen electromagnetic, radiation protection and other aspects of performance. For example, the cabinet structure should be firm, the bottom and top can be fixed up and down, and should be able to bear the load of the top cable and structure; the famous parts and the internal and external overall structure have sufficient rigidity and toughness, and will not shake after the equipment is installed And structural parts are deformed; the assembly should be consistent and interchangeable, and the parts should be used as standard and common parts to the maximum extent, strong and free from looseness;, no sharp burrs; The protection level conforms to the industry standard; The detachable structure is adopted, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.
In terms of appearance design, the communication cabinet should be generous, neat and beautiful. The shape of the cabinet should be intuitive, the side panels are flat, no distortion, no deformation, the surface treatment is delicate, the color is uniform, and the overall appearance is beautiful and durable. At the same time, the appearance design of the cabinet should be more humanized, such as metal parts without sharp edges and burrs, appearance without obvious sharp edges and corners, complete signs, easy identification, safe and convenient disassembly and assembly, etc.

In addition, the quality of the communication cabinet is directly affected by the manufacturing process. Designers should adopt appropriate processes to ensure that the edge of the cabinet board will not appear burrs, sharp openings, burrs, etc., and the exposed corners should also be folded to improve the safety and reliability of cabinet installation and use.
In addition, there are many details that need to be paid attention to in the design of communication cabinet. For example, the cable management parts inside the cabinet should be reasonably, fully and conveniently operated. Necessary sealing components shall be arranged on the plane of the front panel of the equipment in the cabinet to ensure that all cold air enters the air inlet on the front of the equipment without leakage. Sealing panels, sealing baffles and other sealing components are not easy to deform, light.
