In an industry where downtime is costly and speed to implementation is everything, Cannon’s 1–3 working day delivery service across the mainland offers a major competitive advantage.
Both EPIC-X and SMART-X cabinets arrive pre-built and factory-fitted, reducing on-site installation time significantly and enabling rapid deployment in critical infrastructure environments.
Whether you’re upgrading a single IT room or expanding a hyperscale data centre, the swift availability of these units ensures projects stay on schedule and budgets stay intact.
Your Emergency Partner: When Others Let You Down
Unexpected delivery failures or last-minute requirements can put infrastructure projects at risk. That’s where Cannon steps in.

Scalable, Flexible, and Future-Proof
Cannon’s modular approach allows customers to scale infrastructure as requirements evolve.
The EPIC-X is available in heights from 25U to 47U, with widths from 600mm to 800mm and depths up to 1200mm. The SMART-X extends even further, with cabinet heights reaching 52U, catering to more expansive or high-density setups.
Smart modularity means these cabinets can be deployed as stand-alone units or seamlessly integrated into large-scale installations—future-proofing IT environments against ongoing growth and change.
Engineered for Ease and Efficiency
Rapid deployment isn’t just about delivery, it’s about ease of installation too. Cannon’s signature features include:
- Quick-release perforated doors for high airflow and fast access
- Multi-entry roof panels and large base cable access points
- Infinitely adjustable mounting posts for maximum equipment compatibility
- Vendor-agnostic mounting profiles (SMART-X) supporting a wide range of hardware
These features help technicians work faster and smarter, while ensuring optimal airflow and cable management, critical for performance and reliability.
Security and Sustainability
Security is baked into the design, with steel construction and 2-point locking doors in the SMART-X series providing robust protection.
In line with environmental concerns, SMART-X also features reduced plastic content, improving recyclability and minimising environmental impact, a growing priority for many corporate clients.
Built for IT, Datacentres, and Telecoms
Whether you’re outfitting a new data hall, retrofitting a comms room, or deploying equipment in mission-critical environments like defence or finance, Cannon’s EPIC-X and SMART-X solutions deliver the strength, speed, and scalability today’s infrastructure demands.
With rapid availability, outstanding load performance, and advanced modular design, Cannon’s server cabinets aren’t just built to spec; they’re built for the future. And when timing is critical, Cannon is the supplier you can depend on when others fall short.
