APC by Schneider Electric AR112SH6 12U Wall Mount Rack Enclosure Cabinet
Overview
The AR112SH6 is a 12U wall-mount rack enclosure from APC by Schneider Electric, designed for deployments where floor space is unavailable or impractical — server closets, IDF rooms, retail back-of-house, and security equipment rooms where NVRs, PoE switches, and patch panels need a fixed, protected home. At 12U, it accommodates a meaningful mix of 1U and 2U gear without the footprint of a full floor cabinet. The black steel construction keeps it appropriate for both IT closets and finished-space installs. If you're consolidating a small surveillance or access control head-end — NVR, managed switch, UPS — into a single organized enclosure, the AR112SH6 is sized for exactly that scope.
Compatibility
Fits any standard 19-inch rack-mount equipment conforming to EIA-310 spacing — including 1U and 2U network video recorders, PoE switches, patch panels, and 1U UPS units. Compatible with APC's own rack-mount APC by Schneider Electric accessories including horizontal cable managers, brush-strip blanking panels, and toolless mounting rails where supported. Pairs well with wall-mount UPS and power distribution units sized for 12U enclosures. Verify depth clearance for your deepest device before ordering — wall-mount enclosures have fixed depth constraints that floor cabinets do not.
Installation Notes
Wall-mount installation requires a structurally sound wall surface rated for the combined load of the enclosure and all installed equipment. Mount to wood studs or use appropriate masonry anchors for concrete or CMU walls — drywall anchors alone are not adequate for a loaded rack. The 23.6-inch dimension reflects the enclosure's external profile; confirm your wall cavity and stud spacing before installation. Route all cabling through the enclosure's cable entry points before securing equipment to simplify future moves and additions.
