Rackmount enclosure

24 November 2010 Enclosures, Racks, Cabinets & Panel Products

APC by Schneider Electric has announced the local availability of its NetShelter VL enclosure.

With a continued focus on the cooling, power distribution and cable management features that users have come to expect from the company, the new enclosure provides a reliable rackmount environment for mission-critical equipment. It also offers additional optional features such as side panels, casters and rear cable channel, all of which aid in reducing the cost of the base enclosure.

The NetShelter VL is highly integratable with APCs InfraStuXure cooling, power distribution and cable management products, all of which work seamlessly with the enclosures to provide a complete IT infrastructure support system. Vendor neutral mounting guarantees compatibility with all EIA-310 compliant 19-inch equipment and APC’s money back guarantee provides customers with the knowledge that compliant equipment will fit the enclosure.

With large cable access slots in the roof providing access for overhead cable egress, and a bottom design that allows for unobstructed cable access through a raised floor, the enclosure enables the effective organisation of data cables within a rack environment. Furthermore, the roof, side panels and front and rear doors are grounded to the frame of the enclosure and eight additional grounding inserts are located on the frame for external grounding. Perforated front and rear doors provide ample ventilation for servers and networking equipment and the front door can be moved to the opposite side or interchanged with the rear doors with a simple lift-off design.
