Synergy System Rack Mount Cabinets

Synergy is a modular furniture system that lets consumers define product arrangements by combining a variety of elements. The new Synergy rack mounts are modular, stackable, ready to assemble, and compatible with all Synergy configurations, allowing for mixing and matching. The mounts are available in multiple widths and heights, and cabinets come with a full set of rails. Twenty- inch high cabinets support 10-unit racks, 30-inch cabinets support 15 rack units, and 40-inch cabinets support 21-unit racks. The Synergy rack mounts are available for single, twin, and triple-width cabinets in open and full-door configurations in all the above heights in any combination, supporting up to 42 units. The mounts include lacing bars to help manage wires.

Chameleon Collection Rack Mount Cabinets

The Chameleon Collection cabinets offer 9 different styles each in 4 different configurations. The cabinet styles are Berlin, Hampton, Sonoma, Geneva, Barcelona, Corsica, Elba, Oslo, and Venice. Other features include extruded aluminum frameworks, soft-closing door dampers, adjustable shelves, ventilation louvers, and removable rear panels.
Several accessories enhance the rack mounts' functionality, including extended rear panels that add four inches to cabinet depths, an active cooling kit with thermostatically controlled fans, a Panamax power conditioner for surge protection, and heavy duty casters.

Salamander Designs' new rack mounts will be available at the end of September. They can be seen at the company's CEDIA exhibition during the 2010 show.
