With displays, products and space for foot traffic taking up most of the square footage, small and mid-sized retail shops may struggle to store IT equipment away from the eyes of consumers. Often, a small closet or office must serve multiple purposes including storing sensitive communication, security and building automation equipment. This can lead to disorganized and damaged cabling.
Chatsworth Products’ (CPI) enterprise networking solutions can benefit retail businesses by:
- Creating easy access to cables and routers
- Saving floor space
- Providing protection, organization and support for cabling and equipment
- Offering a range of product dimensions
In smaller sites with less networking equipment, such as an office or shared closet space, the CUBE-iT PLUS® Wall-Mount Cabinet is ideal for securing equipment.
On the other hand, if a site has a dedicated equipment room for consolidating networking, phone, inventory control and security equipment into a single space, consider these core products:
- Features a small footprint to save floor space

- Cables are managed and supported precisely where needed
- Offers a set of tool-less cable management accessories to optimize use of interior space
