A top-mount corporate cabinet looks like this:

portion of the rack ... since there is no brace at the top (as yours has).
Your cabinet will work fine; in my experience RL02's are always tight and
fiddly any place but the top-spot.
Is there a (hand-)book that describes the DEC cabinets and in particular this
"top-mount corporate cabinet"? Is there a BA # for this cabinet?
I have an 11/34 in said cabinet but it is missing this 1U strengthener
although I do have the 1U front-bar. I had to jigger a means to hold
the front-bar in place and have been unable to understand how it would
correctly attach to the rack and the strengthener, probably because I
don't have the strengthener!
Any part numbers or drawings that show this arrangement would be quite
helpful.
Thanks!
