Vertiv GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 24" Wall-Mount Mesh Rack Enclosure with Electronic Access Control

Overview

The Vertiv GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 is a 24-inch-wide wall-mount open-frame rack enclosure in black, configured with a mesh door and SEAL Electronic locking access control. It ships in an 11U form factor and is designed for network closets, security equipment rooms, and distributed IT deployments where floor space is not available and rack-mount hardware needs to be secured against unauthorized physical access. The GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 (often searched as GL24WDXM B SE 00) is part of Vertiv's WDX wall-mount enclosure family, which spans 11U, 18U, and 25U configurations to match a range of equipment densities within the same footprint.

For integrators comparing Vertiv rack and enclosure products, the WDX line sits within the company's wall-mount enclosure category alongside open-frame and solid-door variants — so buyers can configure depth, door type, and access control to match their specific environment and security policy.

Key Features

• 24" Wide Form Factor: A 24-inch width accommodates standard 19-inch EIA rack-mount equipment with adequate side clearance for cable management — the right fit for IDF closets and security head-end rooms that cannot accept a 4-post floor cabinet.
• Mesh Door: The mesh front door allows passive airflow without requiring active fan modules, which reduces noise and eliminates a failure point in low-heat deployments. If your equipment generates significant heat, the WDX family also supports fan and clear door configurations — worth comparing before finalizing.
• SEAL Electronic Access Control: The GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 ships with SEAL Electronic locking, which provides credential-based door release rather than a static key. This matters in multi-tenant or compliance-driven environments where you need an audit trail of physical access to rack-mounted gear — a mechanical swing handle cannot give you that.
• Black Finish: The black powder-coat finish is standard for security and AV equipment rooms where rack aesthetics and low-reflectivity matter. It also makes the unit less conspicuous in public-facing or shared-facility installations.
• Multiple Height Options within the WDX Family: While this SKU is the 11U configuration, the WDX line scales to 18U and 25U. If your equipment count grows, the family's consistent form factor means you can standardize mounting hardware and access control credentials across all sizes.
• Configurable Airflow: In addition to the mesh door option on this unit, the WDX platform supports fan-assisted and clear-panel airflow configurations — relevant if you're deploying PoE switches, NVRs, or other heat-generating gear in a sealed room without HVAC.

Integration and Compatibility

The GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 is designed to house standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment. Security integrators commonly pair wall-mount enclosures like this with network video recorders, PoE network switches, and access control panels — all of which ship in standard 1U or 2U rack form factors. The SEAL Electronic lock mechanism integrates with Vertiv's SEAL access control ecosystem; confirm compatibility with your existing credential management system before deployment. For cable entry and airflow planning in enclosed spaces, consult a rack planning guide to size the enclosure to your actual U count plus 20–30% headroom for future expansion. Wall-mount enclosures in this class are also commonly deployed alongside managed PoE switches that power IP cameras and access readers directly from the rack.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What U capacity does the GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 provide?

A: The GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 is the 11U configuration in the WDX wall-mount enclosure family. The same product line is also available in 18U and 25U heights for larger equipment loads.

Q: What type of door does the GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 ship with?

A: This unit ships with a mesh door, which supports passive airflow without requiring a fan module. The WDX family also offers Plexi and Solid door options if your deployment requires a different configuration.

Q: What access control does the GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 use?

A: The GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 is configured with SEAL Electronic access control — a credential-based electronic lock. Other WDX configurations are available with a Swing Handle (mechanical) or SEAL Combo (combination) locking mechanism if electronic access is not required.

Q: Can the GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 be used with active cooling?

A: This unit ships with a mesh door that supports passive (natural) airflow. The WDX platform supports fan-assisted airflow configurations, but this specific SKU does not include a fan module. If active cooling is required, consult the WDX line for fan-equipped variants.

Q: Is the GL24WDXM-B-SE-00 suitable for housing PoE switches and NVRs?

A: Yes — any standard 19-inch 1U or 2U rack-mount equipment fits this enclosure. PoE switches, NVRs, and access control panels are common installations. Verify your total equipment heat load against the passive mesh-door airflow capacity before deploying heat-intensive gear in a sealed room.
