APC by Schneider Electric Netshelter SX 48U 600MM Wide X 1200MM Deep Enclosure - AR3307X610

APC by Schneider Electric AR3307X610 48U 600mm Wide x 1200mm Deep Server Rack Enclosure

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AR3307X610 is a 48U NetShelter SX rack enclosure built for server room and data center deployments where physical depth matters. At 600mm wide and 1200mm deep with a maximum mounting depth of 41.73 inches (105.99 cm), it accommodates full-depth 1U servers and dense compute equipment that shallower enclosures simply cannot house. If you're fitting modern rack-mount servers — which routinely run 28 to 36 inches deep — this enclosure gives you the clearance to cable and cool properly without compromising airflow at the rear. Finished in black and rated for equipment up to the full 48U height, the AR3307X610 is the right frame when you're building a structured, scalable server environment rather than patching together mismatched racks.

The NetShelter SX line is APC's workhorse enclosure family — designed around real data center and IT room constraints, not just spec-sheet numbers. The APC by Schneider Electric catalog covers the full range of rack infrastructure from UPS to PDUs to enclosures, and the SX series sits at the center of their physical infrastructure offering.

Key Features

• 48U Rack Height: 48U gives you 84.375 inches of usable panel space in a single enclosure — enough for a full compute stack (servers, top-of-rack switches, patch panels, KVM) without chaining multiple racks. For high-density builds, that means fewer enclosures, fewer inter-rack cable runs, and a cleaner physical topology.
• 1200mm Depth (41.73" max mounting): The 41.73-inch maximum mounting depth is the spec that matters most when specifying this enclosure. Modern 1U servers from major vendors frequently exceed 28 inches in chassis depth; add rear cabling and a structured cable manager and you'll burn 6–8 inches fast. This enclosure's depth budget handles that without forcing front-flush mounting that blocks rear airflow.
• 600mm Wide Frame with 19" Rack Rails: Standard 19-inch rack rails fit inside the 600mm outer width — this is the industry-standard rack unit width, meaning any EIA-310-compliant equipment mounts without adapters. The 600mm footprint is narrower than 800mm variants, useful when floor space per row is constrained.
• 329.70 lb Structural Rating: The enclosure itself ships at 329.70 lbs (149.55 kg) — a meaningful data point for floor load planning. Dense server builds add substantially to that figure; confirm your raised floor or slab rating before committing to a fully loaded row of these enclosures.
• Black Finish: The black finish is standard for data center environments and reduces light reflection in hot-aisle/cold-aisle layouts with overhead lighting — a minor but real operational detail when technicians are reading labels and LED indicators at a glance.
• 1U Server Compatibility: Explicitly rated for 1U server form factors — the most common chassis type in enterprise compute deployments. If you're running blade chassis or non-standard form factors, verify rail kit compatibility separately before ordering.

Integration & Compatibility

The AR3307X610 is designed for rack enclosures in structured server environments. The 19-inch EIA-310 rail standard means virtually all rack-mount servers, storage arrays, network switches, and patch panels from major vendors mount directly. The 1200mm depth accommodates full-depth equipment that would otherwise overhang or require custom rail positioning in shallower enclosures.

For a complete rack infrastructure build, pair this enclosure with APC rack PDUs for power distribution and APC UPS systems for power conditioning — both are designed to integrate within the NetShelter SX footprint. Blanking panels, cable managers, and side panels from the SX accessory line are dimensionally matched to this enclosure's 600mm width.

This enclosure is appropriate for server rack infrastructure deployments in enterprise IT rooms, colocation cages, and edge compute environments where full-depth server hardware is the norm. It is not a purpose-built network or AV enclosure — if your equipment is predominantly shallow (patch panels, switches, media converters), a 1000mm-deep variant may be a better fit and will take up less floor space per row.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the maximum equipment mounting depth for the AR3307X610?

A: The AR3307X610 supports a maximum mounting depth of 41.73 inches (105.99 cm), making it suitable for full-depth 1U servers and other deep rack-mount equipment.

Q: What rack unit height does the AR3307X610 provide?

A: The AR3307X610 is a 48U enclosure, providing 48 standard rack units of usable mounting space for servers, switches, patch panels, and other rack-mount hardware.

Q: What is the outer width and depth of the AR3307X610?

A: The enclosure is 600mm wide and 1200mm deep. The internal 19-inch rail width is EIA-310 standard, compatible with virtually all rack-mount equipment.

Q: How much does the AR3307X610 weigh, and what should I know for floor load planning?

A: The enclosure itself weighs 329.70 lbs (149.55 kg) unloaded. The packaged shipping weight is 364.76 lbs (165.45 kg). For floor load planning, add the weight of all installed equipment and factor in your facility's floor load rating before deploying a fully loaded rack.

Q: Is the AR3307X610 compatible with APC PDUs and UPS systems?

A: The AR3307X610 is part of APC's NetShelter SX line, which is designed to integrate with APC rack PDUs and UPS systems. Verify specific PDU and UPS dimensions against the enclosure's internal clearances before ordering.

Q: What equipment types is the AR3307X610 designed for?

A: The AR3307X610 is rated for 1U servers and is suited for general server room and data center deployments. It accommodates standard 19-inch EIA-310 rack-mount equipment up to the full 48U height.

The AR3307X610's 41.73-inch maximum mounting depth is the specification I check first when a client is deploying full-depth 1U servers — it's the number that separates an enclosure that works from one that forces compromises on cabling and rear airflow. At 48U and 600mm wide, this enclosure handles a complete server stack without the floor-space penalty of an 800mm-wide frame.

Technical Highlights:

• 41.73" Max Mounting Depth: Accommodates modern full-depth 1U server chassis that routinely run 28–36 inches, plus rear cable management, without blocking airflow or forcing non-standard rail positioning.
• 48U Height: 48 rack units in a single enclosure supports a full compute stack — server nodes, ToR switch, KVM, and patch panels — reducing inter-rack cabling complexity versus splitting across two shallower units.
• 329.70 lb Unloaded Weight: At nearly 330 lbs empty, floor load calculations are non-trivial. A fully loaded rack with dense 1U servers can push total weight well past 1,500 lbs — verify raised floor or slab capacity before finalizing placement.

Deployment Considerations:

• The 600mm width is narrower than 800mm alternatives — useful in tight rows, but verify that your chosen PDU and cable management accessories are dimensioned for 600mm before ordering the full kit.
• Package shipping weight is 364.76 lbs — plan for freight delivery and a two-person uncrating; this is not a hand-truck-from-receiving-dock enclosure without proper equipment.

The AR3307X610 is the right enclosure for a structured enterprise server room deployment where full-depth compute hardware is the norm and you need a single 48U frame to consolidate an entire rack's worth of infrastructure without depth or height compromises.
