The Silent Brick Controller X-Series is the base unit. The controller includes the Control Unit for the Silent Brick System, up to 8 slots (13) for Silent Brick Pro Storage Containers, and two power supplies (16) for power.

At the lower corners of the device's front side are the locking levers (14). These levers allow the anchoring between the device and the rack rails to be released.
