Coating on the surface of the container body 1 can prevent solar radiation and reduce solar radiation heat. At the same time, a photovoltaic system is introduced. A photovoltaic module 16 is installed on the top of the container body 1. While providing green electricity for the container, it increases the solar radiation shielding and further reduces the temperature of the outer surface of the container body 1. A double-door 2 is rotatably connected to the right outer wall of the container body 1. The double-door 2 is generally formed by punching, bending and welding high-quality cold-rolled steel plates or similar materials, with a heat-insulating layer sandwiched inside and assembled with a locking rod. A partition wall 6 is arranged inside the left side of the container body 1. An air conditioner outdoor unit compartment 5 is arranged inside the left side of the partition wall 6, and an equipment front compartment 4 is arranged inside the right side of the partition wall 6. The container body 1 is divided into an equipment front compartment 4 and an air conditioner outdoor unit compartment 5, and the two compartments are separated by a partition wall 6. The equipment front compartment 4 is equipped with a double-door 2 and a safety door 3. A communication device 8 is arranged inside the middle end of the container body 1.
[0032] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3, a photovoltaic panel assembly 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the container body 1. The photovoltaic panel assembly 16 can be installed on the top of the container body 1 to increase the sunlight shielding of the container and at the same time provide the introduction of green electricity. The photovoltaic panel assembly 16 is installed on the top of the container body 1 through connectors and bolts. The communication equipment 8 includes a side-mounted in-row air conditioner cabinet 15, which is arranged in the middle of the communication equipment 8. Closed modular cabinets 9 are arranged on both the left and right sides of the side-mounted in-row air conditioner cabinet 15.

After the equipment mounting racks in the cabinets install the equipment, the front and rear air ducts of the cabinets are isolated by blind plates 11. Generally, high-quality cold-rolled steel plates or similar materials are bent, welded, and assembled. The blind plates 11 can also be injection-molded with plastics or similar materials. The closed modular cabinets 9 have closed doors 10 at the front and back. After the equipment mounting racks install the equipment, the front and rear air ducts of the cabinets are isolated by blind plates 11 to form a cold channel 12 and a hot channel 13. A safety door 3 is rotatably connected to the middle front end of the container body 1. The safety door 3 is generally formed by punching, bending, and welding high-quality cold-rolled steel plates or similar materials, with a thermal insulation layer sandwiched inside and assembled with a supporting escape lock.
