Modular reconfigurable active network cabinets

A system for joining two active network cabinets, comprising:

• a modular cabinet plate;
• one or more gaskets configured to be disposed between the modular cabinet plate and at least one sidewall of the two active network cabinets;
• and
• a plurality of fasteners;
• wherein the modular cabinet plate defines:
• an outer continuous face configured to directly couple with at least one of the one or more gaskets;
• an inner continuous ledge configured to couple with an aperture boundary defined in the at least one sidewall;
• and
• a plurality of through holes distributed around the outer continuous face;
• wherein the plurality of fasteners are configured to be disposed in the plurality of through holes to secure the modular cabinet plate to the two active network cabinets.

A joinable and configurable active network cabinet system, comprising:

• a first active network cabinet comprising;
• a first sidewall;
• a second sidewall opposing the first sidewall;
• and
• a first removeable piece configured to define a first aperture on the first sidewall when the first removeable piece is removed;
• a second active network cabinet disposed side-by-side with the first active network, the second active network cabinet comprising:
• a first sidewall;
• a second sidewall opposing the first sidewall;
• and
• a second removeable piece configured to define a second aperture on the second sidewall when the second removable piece is removed;
• a modular cabinet plate system having at least a portion disposed in the first aperture and the second aperture and configured to join the first active network cabinet with the second active network cabinet.
