down there, the pink ones are strings, ATS switches, maybe silver, or maybe palladium...
Well, in general, it’s all like non-ferrous metals, relays, etc.

the picture itself is not very informative...

Yes why not .

Hi, it looks to me as some sort of power distribution cabinet stuff with a huge transformer and small power supplies in racks....

Not too clear though.....but....the transformer has good copper, connection point have gold plated conacts....can get something out of it, if its free...

Hope this helps...

Better picture of the full insides would help.

Take it apart.

 

[anachronism]

Yup, go for it. Even the power circuits in this grade of Telecoms gear contain goodies.

I see a few old boards in those slots. Those will absolutely have some good stuff. If it's free, GRAB!!

From what I can see, these look a lot like some I had a few years ago. Mine were from a 911 communication center. They were well worth processing. If I recall correctly there were a couple of nice back plane boards buried inside with lots of good quality pins.
