Why Choose the ABB UK648MB UK600 Four-Row Flush-Mounted Media Enclosure?
The ABB UK648MB, manufacturer order code 2CPX031396R9999, is a four-row flush-mounted multimedia enclosure base from the ABB UK600 range. Designed for indoor structured cabling, networking and communication installations, this genuine ABB enclosure provides a practical foundation for organising multimedia equipment within a recessed wall installation.
Unlike complete UK600 media units supplied with a front door and trim frame, the UK648MB is supplied without a door or decorative trim frame. This allows installers to select a suitable finishing arrangement separately according to the project requirements. The enclosure includes perforated sheet steel mounting plates, a DIN rail and integrated cable management provisions, providing flexible mounting options for compatible network devices and accessories.
The UK648MB features a four-row, 48-module enclosure format, a durable RAL 9016 white thermoplastic housing and IP30 ingress protection. With a body measuring 722 mm high, 362 mm wide and 97 mm deep, it is designed for suitable flush-mounted installations and can also support hollow-wall mounting with appropriate accessories. Its doorless configuration makes it particularly useful where the enclosure front is to be specified separately.

The ABB UK648MB is supplied as a basic multimedia enclosure without a door or decorative trim frame. This distinguishes it from complete media enclosure variants that incorporate a factory-specified ventilated door or WiFi-friendly front. By separating the enclosure base from the front finishing components, the UK648MB gives installers greater flexibility when planning compatible UK600 installations.
The included perforated sheet steel mounting plates provide practical fixing positions for suitable communication devices, while the DIN rail supports compatible rail-mounted equipment. The four-row configuration provides useful space for organising networking equipment and associated cables. The nominal 48-module format describes the enclosure size and should not be interpreted as 48 installed circuit protection devices or 48 supplied networking ports.
Flush-Mounting Requirements and Cable Management
The UK648MB enclosure body measures 722 × 362 × 97 mm (H × W × D). For flush-mounted installation, ABB specifies a 730 × 367 × 95 mm wall niche. Suitable hollow-wall installation requires a 703 × 340 × 88 mm cut-out and the appropriate mounting accessories. The enclosure's body dimensions should not be confused with the dimensions of a completed assembly fitted with a separately purchased door and trim frame.
An integrated cable fastening rail and pre-punched entry points support orderly routing of power, data and communication cables. As the UK648MB is supplied without a door or trim frame, installers should select suitable compatible finishing components and confirm the protection requirements of the completed assembly. Network switches, routers, patch panels, socket outlets and other application-specific equipment are not specified as included with this base model.
