Patent attributes
A panel for an electronic equipment enclosure includes a generally planar sheet composed of a metal-based material and at least one panel knockout arranged interiorly of edges of the generally planar sheet. The at least one panel knockout is connected to the generally planar sheet at one or more attachment points and is shaped to include at least one protruding notch along a side thereof. The generally planar sheet is adapted to fit atop an electronic equipment enclosure that defines an interior. Removal of the at least one panel knockout, by severing a connection between the at least one panel knockout and the generally planar sheet at the one or more attachment points, provides an access opening through the generally planar sheet to the interior of the electronic equipment enclosure. The access opening includes an edge having an indentation corresponding to the at least one protruding notch.
