APC by Schneider Electric AR8645 Vertical Cable Manager

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AR8645 is a double-sided vertical cable manager designed for 19-inch racks, providing 10RU (Rack Unit) of capacity per side. It addresses the need for organized cable routing in dense server and network environments, preventing interference with airflow and simplifying maintenance. Its 253 mm width and 66 cm maximum depth accommodate substantial cable bundles. This manager is intended for use within data centers and enterprise IT closets where structured cabling is paramount. The AR8645 model is black.

Compatibility

This cable manager is designed for standard 19-inch rack systems. It is compatible with racks that can accommodate its 2134 mm height and 66 cm maximum depth. While not tied to specific server or network device models, its function is to organize cabling that connects to equipment mounted within these racks. Compliance with UL and REACH standards indicates suitability for a wide range of commercial and industrial installations.

Installation Notes

The AR8645 requires mounting within a 19-inch rack structure. Its significant height (2134 mm) means it typically spans multiple rack units. The unit's depth of 66 cm requires sufficient clearance behind the rack for cable bending radius and access. The manager itself does not require power or active components. Ensure the rack structure can support the weight of the manager plus the cables it will contain. The package weight is 43.1 kg, indicating a robust construction requiring careful handling during installation.
