Hammond C2F198523BK1 49U Modular Cabinet Frame, 23.6 in Deep, Black

The C2F198523BK1 is a 49U open cabinet frame from the Hammond C2 Series modular rack cabinet system, supplied as a frame only with no mounting rails. It is intended for AV integrators, telecom and lab technicians, and OEM or facilities teams who want to specify their own rails, panels, doors and accessories rather than buy a fixed configuration.

Construction is a 14-gauge steel welded assembly, part of a C2 platform that uses 12-gauge reinforced corner brackets and 16-gauge doors and panels and is rated for a 1500 lb load. The frame is finished in RAL 9005 Black textured powder coat, a finish the series describes as GREENGUARD, TSCA and RoHS compliant. Grounding studs on the frame, doors and panels support bonding, and the C2 platform is TAA compliant and manufactured in North America.

Overall size is 93.06 in x 23 in x 23.63 in (2,364 mm x 584 mm x 600 mm) per the part data, with the series ordering table listing overall height as 93.91 in (2385 mm). Usable mounting height is 85.81 in (2180 mm) for 49U of equipment, with 21.63 in (549 mm) of usable mounting depth and 21.97 in (558 mm) of usable depth shown on the drawing. Shipping weight is 114 lbs (51.71 kg).

Pair C2F198523BK1 with 19 in rack rail pairs: CCR85TZPL for tapped 10-32 or CPR85SZPL for square hole. Infinite-depth rail adjustment using C-channel struts allows rails to be positioned to suit the equipment. Four leveling feet are included (5/16-18 thread), with 1/4-20 caster hardware provisions and 0.50 in (13 mm) lagging points in the base for bolt-down installations. Interchangeable top and bottom panels, optional doors and side panels, and the wider C2 accessory range let the frame be built out over time.
