APC by Schneider Electric Netshelter SX 42U 750MMX1200MM Deep Encl - AR3350X617

APC by Schneider Electric AR3350X617 NetShelter SX 42U 750mm x 1200mm Deep Rack Enclosure

Overview

The AR3350X617 is APC by Schneider Electric's NetShelter SX 42U enclosure in the 750mm-wide by 1200mm-deep configuration — the deep-cabinet variant built for high-density IT and security equipment that demands front-to-back cable management room and full-depth server or network video recorder installations. At a shipping weight of 403 lbs, this is a substantial, commercial-grade structure intended for raised-floor data centers, dedicated IT rooms, and large-scale physical security head-end closets. For integrators building out network video recorders and server infrastructure within a single rack footprint, the extra 1200mm depth gives you the clearance needed without forcing cable-management compromises.

Key Features

• 42U Usable Height: 42 rack units of vertical space accommodates a full stack of APC by Schneider Electric power distribution, patch panels, NVR appliances, and switching gear in a single enclosure — reducing your physical footprint versus splitting across two shorter cabinets.
• 750mm Width: The 750mm wide frame is the standard enterprise width, ensuring compatibility with blanking panels, cable managers, and side panels from the NetShelter SX accessory ecosystem.
• 1200mm Depth: The extended 1200mm depth is the right call when deploying full-depth servers, large UPS units mounted internally, or high-density network switches with rear cable egress — the extra depth prevents door interference and supports proper airflow paths.
• 403 lb Shipping Weight: The verified shipping weight signals a fully-welded steel frame construction rated for the loads this form factor demands. Plan your floor-loading and logistics accordingly — this cabinet requires appropriate lift equipment and a minimum two-person installation team.

Integration & Compatibility

The AR3350X617 is designed to integrate with APC's NetShelter SX accessory line, including side panels, roof-mounted fan trays, and in-row cooling interfaces. It pairs naturally with APC rack PDUs and Smart-UPS systems in deployments where power conditioning and distribution need to live in the same rack. For physical security environments, this enclosure suits head-end equipment rooms housing NVR clusters, access control servers, and video management workstations. Consult an rack enclosure compatibility guide to confirm accessory fitment for your specific configuration before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the internal usable dimensions of the AR3350X617?

A: The product name specifies 750mm wide by 1200mm deep at 42U height. Exact internal usable dimensions (width between posts, internal usable depth) are documented in the manufacturer's installation guide — consult APC's official documentation for precise internal clearances before specifying equipment.

Q: How much does the AR3350X617 weigh?

A: The verified shipping weight is 403 lbs. This reflects the enclosure and packaging; plan for appropriate floor loading, lift equipment, and a minimum two-person install team.

Q: What is the maximum load capacity of the AR3350X617?

A: Maximum static and dynamic load ratings are specified in APC's official product documentation for this SKU. This information is not confirmed in available evidence — consult the manufacturer datasheet before specifying high-density equipment loads.

Q: Does the AR3350X617 ship with blanking panels or cable management accessories?

A: Package contents for this SKU are not confirmed in available evidence. Verify what is included versus purchased separately with the manufacturer's documentation before ordering.

Q: Is the AR3350X617 compatible with APC NetShelter SX accessories?

A: The AR3350X617 is part of the NetShelter SX family and is designed to accept compatible SX-series accessories including side panels, roof sections, and fan trays. Confirm accessory compatibility by model number using APC's compatibility matrix.

Karl Wilson

The AR3350X617 is the NetShelter SX configuration I reach for when a deployment has full-depth servers or internally-mounted UPS units that simply will not fit a standard 1000mm cab — the 1200mm depth buys the clearance margin that prevents door-latch interference and keeps your rear cable egress from becoming a heat trap. At 403 lbs shipping weight, it's clear this is a welded steel commercial-grade structure, not a lightweight telecom open-frame.

Technical Highlights:

• 42U Height: A full 42U gives you headroom to consolidate NVR appliances, patch infrastructure, and power distribution into one cabinet rather than splitting across two — fewer footprint squares in a dense equipment room matters.
• 1200mm Depth: The extra depth versus a 1000mm cabinet is the spec that decides whether a full-depth server's rear I/O has breathing room. It also gives cable managers something to work with before the rear door closes.
• 750mm Width: Standard enterprise width means every SX-series blanking panel, cable manager, and side panel in your stock fits without special ordering — that matters on a multi-rack rollout where consistency reduces installation time.

Deployment Considerations:

• At 403 lbs shipping weight, confirm your floor loading before positioning — raised-floor data center tiles rated below 1,000 lbs/sq ft may need reinforcement under the cabinet footprint.
• Package contents are not confirmed in available evidence for this SKU — explicitly verify whether blanking panels, mounting hardware, and casters are included or need to be ordered separately before the installation date.

This cabinet is the right fit for a physical security head-end room or dense IT closet where you're stacking NVR servers, video management workstations, and PoE switching gear and need the depth to do it cleanly without fighting the rear door on every service call.
