ABSTRACT What is disclosed is an electronic equipment housing that provides easy access to electronic equipment inside via a hinged top panel and a clear plastic safety panel below it. Inside the housing are cable raceways at the top front and top rear that are in line with raceways in adjacent housings to permit many cables to be contained inside the housings. The raceways and cables therein do not interfere with convection cooling inside the housings and do not interfere with top access to the equipment. Relatively high heat generating equipment such as power supplies are mounted to one side of the interior of a housing and separate fans cool the power supplies with one flow of air, and other equipment in the housing is cooled by a separate flow of air drawn by other fans. One housing is used to house common system equipment and is always located at one end of a line of housings. The common housing has a side mounted connector arrangement, with the connectors being mounted on swing out doors to provide access to change the connectors or wiring thereto. The connectors ace organized that cables coming from other adjacent housings to the connectors may all be the same length. The front and rear panels on all housings have slots that permit cooling air flow, and conductive screening behind the slots minimizes radio frequency interference (RFI). In addition, the top, front and side removable panels have gaskets to suppress RFI.
