APC by Schneider Electric AR8127BLK Rotating Keyboard Drawer

Overview

The APC by Schneider Electric AR8127BLK is a 19-inch rack-mountable rotating keyboard drawer designed for enterprise IT environments. It provides a dedicated, ergonomic workspace for managing rack-mounted servers, network switches, and other critical infrastructure. This drawer allows you to deploy a full-size keyboard and mouse within a standard 19-inch rack, keeping them accessible when needed and stored neatly when not in use, which is crucial for maintaining organized and efficient data center operations. The AR8127BLK model is finished in black.

Compatibility

This keyboard drawer is designed for standard 19-inch (482.6 mm) wide racks. It is compatible with racks that have a minimum depth of 24 inches (610 mm) to allow for full extension and rotation. It is suitable for use with any server, network, or AV equipment housed within such racks, regardless of manufacturer, provided the rack meets the dimensional requirements.

Installation Notes

Installation requires mounting the drawer's rails to the vertical support members of a standard 19-inch rack. Ensure the rack is stable and capable of supporting the weight of the drawer and its contents. The drawer slides out and rotates 90 degrees in either direction, allowing for comfortable keyboard and mouse use. Verify that sufficient clearance exists within the rack and around the installation site for full drawer extension and rotation before mounting.
