Description

APC by Schneider Electric AR8600 Horizontal Cable Manager, 2U Single Side With Cover

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AR8600 is a 2U horizontal cable manager designed to organize and route network and server cabling within a standard 19-inch rack. Its single-sided design with an integrated cover streamlines cable deployment, preventing tangles and ensuring easier maintenance. This unit is ideal for environments where clean cable runs are critical for airflow and accessibility, such as data centers, server rooms, and network closets. The AR8600 helps maintain cable integrity by providing strain relief and separation for patch cords and other interconnects, preventing damage from sharp bends or excessive tension. Its black color blends into most rack environments.

Compatibility

This 2U cable manager is designed for use with standard 19-inch server racks and cabinets. It is compatible with APC's NetShelter SX, NetShelter SV, and NetShelter WX enclosures, as well as other industry-standard racks. It provides 2U of vertical space for routing cables between rack-mounted equipment. The single-sided design is suitable for installations where cables enter from one side of the rack, typically the front or rear.

Installation Notes

The APC AR8600 mounts directly to the vertical mounting rails of a standard 19-inch rack. It occupies 2U of vertical space. Ensure the rack has sufficient depth to accommodate the manager and the connected cabling without impeding door closure or airflow. The cover attaches securely to protect the managed cables from dust and accidental disconnections.
