APC by Schneider Electric Ceiling Panel - 1200MM (48IN) - ACDC2102

APC by Schneider Electric ACDC2102 Ceiling Panel — 1200mm (48 in)

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric ACDC2102 is a 1200mm (approximately 48-inch) top panel designed to close off the ceiling of compatible APC enclosures and rack systems. At 12mm tall and 598mm wide, it installs flush across the top opening of a cabinet run, blocking dust ingress, discouraging cable routing over the top of enclosures, and giving the installation a finished appearance. Available in both black and white, it can be matched to the enclosure color in mixed-finish environments. If you're working on a network infrastructure deployment that demands a tidy, dust-controlled cabinet arrangement, this panel handles the ceiling without requiring custom fabrication.

Key Features

• 1200mm (48 in) Coverage: The 598mm × 999mm footprint spans the full ceiling of matching APC enclosures — no gap-filling or custom cutting required for supported cabinet widths.
• 12mm Profile: At just 12mm in installed height, the ACDC2102 adds negligible vertical dimension to the top of the enclosure, preserving clearance in low-ceiling server rooms and IDF closets.
• Black and White Color Options: Ships in two finish options so you can match the enclosure color in environments where both colors are deployed — useful in staged buildouts where legacy and new equipment sit side by side.
• RoHS and REACH Compliance: Both certifications are confirmed for the ACDC2102, which matters for enterprise procurement teams managing environmental compliance documentation and EU market deployments.

Integration & Compatibility

This ceiling panel is designed for use with APC by Schneider Electric enclosures and rack systems — confirm the internal width of your target cabinet against the 598mm panel width before ordering. It is a passive mechanical component with no electrical connections, so integration is limited to physical fit verification. For full power and rack infrastructure planning, verify the cabinet model's top-panel slot dimensions against this part's 598mm × 999mm footprint. Consult APC's enclosure compatibility documentation for your specific cabinet model to confirm fitment before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What enclosure width is the ACDC2102 designed for?

A: The ACDC2102 panel measures 598mm wide and up to 999mm deep. Verify your specific APC enclosure model's ceiling panel slot dimensions match these values before ordering.

Q: Does the ACDC2102 come in both black and white?

A: Yes. The ACDC2102 is available in both black and white finishes, allowing you to match the enclosure color in your installation.

Q: Is the ACDC2102 RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ACDC2102 carries both RoHS and REACH compliance certifications, supporting enterprise environmental procurement requirements.

Q: Is this panel a structural load-bearing component?

A: No. The ACDC2102 is a passive top panel for enclosure closure and dust management — it is not designed to support equipment weight. Do not place hardware on top of this panel.

Eden Phillips

The ACDC2102 is straightforward for what it is — a 12mm-tall ceiling panel at 598mm wide that closes off the top of an APC enclosure run. It's a detail that integrators either specify correctly the first time or order twice after a site visit reveals a fitment mismatch.

Technical Highlights:

• 598mm Panel Width: Matches the internal ceiling slot of supported APC enclosures — confirm against your cabinet spec sheet before the panel ships to the site.
• 12mm Installed Height: Minimal overhead impact; in IDF closets with suspended ceilings at 12–18 inches above the top of the rack, this panel won't create a fitment problem.
• RoHS + REACH: Both certifications are confirmed, which closes out the environmental compliance checkbox for EU-market or enterprise procurement sign-off without additional paperwork.

Deployment Considerations:

• The 999mm depth dimension is listed as maximum — measure the actual ceiling slot depth on your target enclosure before ordering, particularly on shorter-depth cabinet variants.
• Color selection (black vs. white) should be confirmed against the enclosure finish at PO time — field-swapping finish after installation is a common, avoidable delay.

The ACDC2102 is the right call for APC enclosure buildouts in enterprise data centers and IDF closets where top-panel closure is part of the airflow containment or dust management standard — not a product to improvise around with cut sheet metal.
