APC by Schneider Electric Ceiling Panel Mounting Rail - 1800MM (70.9IN) - ACDC2000

APC by Schneider Electric ACDC2000 Ceiling Panel Mounting Rail

Overview

The ACDC2000 is an 1800mm (70.9 in) ceiling panel mounting rail from APC by Schneider Electric's infrastructure line, designed for suspended-ceiling installations where equipment panels, enclosures, or overhead components require a rigid, load-bearing horizontal support. At 52.2 lb (23.7 kg), this is a substantial structural component — plan the mounting points and ceiling grid load capacity accordingly before ordering. It ships as a special-order item, so confirm lead time before committing to a project schedule.

This rail fills the gap between a standard ceiling grid and a purpose-built rack mounting solution — relevant in spaces where floor or wall mounting is impractical, such as above drop ceilings in open office deployments, data rooms, or structured cabling runs. The 1800mm span covers roughly a standard 6-foot ceiling bay, making it practical for longer horizontal runs without mid-span support.

Compatibility

This rail is part of APC by Schneider Electric's ceiling-mount infrastructure portfolio. Verify compatibility against your specific APC enclosure or panel system by matching the mounting hardware interface — APC publishes system compatibility in their NetShelter and InfraStruXure ceiling-mount accessory documentation. Do not assume cross-compatibility with third-party ceiling grid systems without confirming the rail's attachment profile matches your grid manufacturer's specifications.

Installation Notes

Package dimensions are 73.66 in W × 15.75 in L × 8.98 in H (187.1 × 40 × 22.8 cm), weighing 58.6 lb (26.6 kg) shipped — factor this into freight planning and on-site handling. Two-person installation is advisable given the length and weight. Ceiling grid load ratings must be verified before install; this rail adds static load before any attached equipment is factored in. This is a special-order infrastructure component — confirm lead time at time of purchase.
