The HWC2412U27BK is a 12U enclosed swing-out wall-mount rack cabinet for 19-inch equipment, built for IT, AV and telecom installations where floor space is limited but rear service access is still required. It measures 27.81 in x 24.68 in x 26.78 in (706 mm x 627 mm x 680 mm) and ships without a door, so the front panel style can be chosen to suit the application.

Construction is 14-gauge mild steel finished in RAL9005 black sand-textured powder coat. The HWC Series is UL2416 rated to 350 lb (158 kg) and seismic rated to 200 lb (90.72 kg) dynamic load (Ip = 1.5) in accordance with IBC 2018, CBC 2019, NBC 2018, ASCE 7-16 and ASCE 7-10, with UL File # E474597. Standards listed for this part include cULus, PCI, Zone 4 and TAA-compliant; the cabinet meets PCI DSS requirements with a door installed.

The centre section swings out on concealed hinges with a safety pin lock-out for full rear access. Usable mounting height is 21.00 in (533 mm) over 12U, with 24.50 in (622 mm) of usable equipment depth — the maximum depth that still allows the centre section to swing out unimpeded — and 26.21 in (666 mm) of overall internal space. One pair of adjustable tapped 10-32 URR rails is supplied, along with a starter hardware pack of SCREW1032-50 screws.

Knockouts are provided for optional DNMF100AC115 or DNMF100AC230 fans, with three quadruple knockouts top and bottom and two double knockouts on each side for cable entry and ventilation. Manufactured in Canada and RoHS, REACH and USMCA compliant, the HWC2412U27BK suits network closets, central offices and other regulated or inspected installations.
