What Is a Cabinet for a Mini PC?
A cabinet for a mini PC is an enclosure that holds a small form factor computer and protects it from dust, impact and cable strain. Many buyers search for this term when they need a compact chassis that mounts on a desk, wall, DIN rail or equipment rack. Thinvent mini PCs are built for this use. They are compact, quiet and designed to run continuously in shops, kiosks, labs and factory floors.
