AR3100 NetShelter SX 42U

Features and advantages of NetShelter SX

Other performance advantages

• Double rear door design
  The double opening rear door design helps optimize the use of floor space, and the switch of the rear door only requires 279 mm of operating space.
• Adjustable mounting rail with fixed fixtures and quick alignment device
  The vertical installation guide rail can be adjusted in increments of 1/4 inch (6.4 millimeters), covering almost any installation requirements of IT equipment. The cabinet installation rails and side pillars integrate an easy alignment function for quick alignment verification, without the need for tools to verify whether they are aligned or not. The U-position number is marked on both the front and back for quick installation of the equipment.
• Pre installed full cabinet height rear accessory channel
  The integrated and adjustable rear accessory channel provides a zero U installation position for tool free accessories. Each channel has two installation compartments designed to support combinations of up to four accessories, such as rack power distribution units and vertical cable managers. The 1070mm (42 inches) and 825mm (32 inches) deep cabinets and network cabinets include two channels. A cabinet with a depth of 1200 millimeters (48 inches) includes four channels. The channel is pre installed at the rear of the cabinet in the factory, but can be moved along the side pillars to other positions in the cabinet to reposition the cable manager where it is most needed.
• The option to assemble cabinets according to orders (ATO) is available
  The cabinet ATO (assembly by order) option provides a customized level of customer cabinets that exceeds the standard cabinet model. This customization is limited to the assembly of the cabinet itself and does not include additional cabinet components. For example, cabinets without side panels, doors, or both can be assembled. For size options and availability of cabinets, please visit apc.com.
• Special packaging options for transportation of equipment already installed on the rack
  Cabinets with shockproof packaging are standard cabinets with relevant regulations in packaging design and cabinet components used for transporting installed equipment in cabinets. For size options and availability of cabinets, please visit apc.com.
• Integrated connection hardware with multiple width cabinet alignment functions
  The cabinet includes pre installed connectors for adding a cabinet in the row and providing additional stability to the cabinet. The pre installed connectors include several holes for connecting adjacent cabinets, with a center to center distance of 600mm or 24 inches depending on the floor layout.
• Smaller casters and adjustable leveling feet from below or above
  As a standard, the cabinet is equipped with adjustable flat feet and casters upon delivery. The flat bottomed feet can be quickly adjusted using a screwdriver or drill bit, without the need to use a wrench to reach down and tighten.

safety

• Integrated electrical grounding
  The top cover, side panels, and front and rear doors are grounded through the cabinet rack. There are also eight electrical grounding plugs on the cabinet rack for external grounding.
• Specially designed to enhance structural stability
  The validated framework design, large gauge mounting rails, and heavy-duty casters provide a static (leveled foot) load rating of 3000 pounds (1364 kilograms) and a dynamic (caster) load rating of 2250 pounds (1023 kilograms). The cabinet has been tested and approved, and can meet different seismic requirements by combining appropriate bolt fixing accessories.

compatibility

• Integrated InfraStruXure products
  Schneider Electric's refrigeration, power distribution, and cable management products can seamlessly collaborate with IT cabinets, providing a complete infrastructure support system.
• Ensure compatibility of EIA-310 19 inch rack installation unrelated to the manufacturer
  Installation unrelated to the manufacturer ensures compatibility with all 19 inch devices that comply with the EIA-310 standard. The 'Perfect Match' refund guarantee ensures peace of mind that all rack mounted devices that comply with EIA-310-E standards can be installed in NetShelter cabinets.
• Compatible with Schneider Electric's rack system
  Compatible with various rack accessory products from Schneider Electric, providing the ability to create a complete rack system. Using the industry-leading Schneider Electric design portal - "Small IT Solution Designer" configurator to configure rack solutions, coupled with product compatibility verification and practical third-party device catalogs, can help you visualize your ideal rack solution.
• Optimized for high-capacity cable management system
  The NetShelter SX cabinet has been optimized to work with high-capacity cable management systems. These high-capacity cable management systems are attached to the equipment installation rails inside the cabinet, aligned with the U-space where the equipment is installed, and provide channels for cable routing and management cables.

Ease of use

• Provide cabinet adjustment tools and hardware components
  As a standard, all cabinets come with a hardware bag that includes hardware for installing IT equipment and tools for simple cabinet adjustments.
• simple selection
  No need to spend time selecting and assigning multiple part numbers to create a single cabinet. Schneider Electric makes it quite easy by processing detailed information and providing complete cabinets with a single part number.
• Cable entry hole with pre installed brush
  The large-sized cable access groove at the top provides a pathway for the entry and exit of overhead cables. The bottom design allows cables to pass through the raised floor without obstacles. The top includes openings pre installed with brush strips at positions biased towards the front of the cabinet to allow data cables to pass through and serve to contain airflow.
• Quick detachable front and rear door design
  You can move the front door to the other side or swap it with the rear door. The front and rear doors adopt a simple lifting design, which is easy to disassemble.
• Perforated front door with curved contour
  Perforated front and rear doors can provide sufficient ventilation for servers and networked devices. The front door perforation area has been optimized with a curved profile to provide a larger surface area and allow for greater perforation coverage and higher perforation rates.
• Easy to disassemble cable access top plate
  The top can be removed by a simple pull-out pin hinge, which is used to connect cables during equipment installation or even when cable routing is in place and through cable openings. Once removed, the top can be flipped over to reposition larger cable openings for distribution plugs and connectors.
• Half height side panel and options with brush strips for passage
  The half height quick release side panel reduces size and weight, making it easier to handle and connect equipment. You can lock the side panel with a key and a door. The currently available option is a side panel that integrates through holes and brush strips, used to arrange cables to adjacent racks in a row while still maintaining appropriate airflow.
• The equipment installation guide rail integrates a temporary wiring system
  The equipment installation guide includes a zero U fixing hole next to the EIA 19 inch installation space, allowing the installation of APC's Data Distribution Cable (DDC) patch system without occupying any critical equipment U space. The design of AV and network cabinets does not include holes for integrated DDC cabling. Other 1U, 2U, and rear cabinet zero U options can be used with these cabinets.
• Eye bolt support integrated into the cabinet frame
  There are eyebolt holes at the top of the cabinet frame, allowing the use of lifting mechanisms and eyebolts to lift the cabinet for movement and placement. For detailed information on the requirements for eyebolts and cabinet weight restrictions, please refer to the cabinet user documentation.
