Abstract
The present invention provides a housing for holding a rack of equipment (210), comprising a main enclosure portion (200) for retaining the rack (210), the main enclosure portion (200) having a first opening for receiving the rack (210) and comprising a first wall (310) defining at least one edge of said first opening. A wiring portion (205), distinct from said main enclosure portion (200), is also provided for receiving wires (220) to be routed to said rack (210), and the first wall (310) is arranged to separate the wiring portion (205) from said main enclosure portion (200), such that the wiring portion (205) is located between the first wall (310) and a front face of the housing. Due to the proximity of the wiring portion (205) to the front face of the housing, this arrangement significantly improves access to the wiring of the housing, thereby reducing the time taken to install and commission a system, and to perform routine checks on the wiring.
