How to install APC NetShelter SV 48U Enclosure

• Plan placement: choose a location with a level floor and adequate clearance for maintenance, cable management, and airflow. Ensure the space can accommodate the 800 mm by 1060 mm footprint and allows front and rear access.
• Unpack and inspect: verify that all included components are present (doors, side panels, roof, casters, mounting rails, keys, baying hardware, and brackets) and check for any shipping damage.
• Assemble the enclosure: attach the roof and side panels as required, ensuring a tight, square fit. Install the rear or front door hardware if included, and secure doors with the provided keys.
• Install mounting rails and baying hardware: mount 19-inch rack rails inside the enclosure according to your equipment requirements. If you plan to connect multiple enclosures, use the baying hardware to align and join units for a continuous rack system.
• Prepare for deployment: install pre-installed casters for mobility if you need to reposition the enclosure, or attach bolt-down brackets for permanent floor mounting. Use leveling feet to ensure the unit sits squarely on an uneven floor.
• Mount equipment: following standard 19-inch equipment guidelines, secure servers, switches, and storage devices to the internal mounting rails. Route power and data cables through designated pathways to minimize obstruction and optimize airflow and accessibility.
• Finalize and test: close doors, verify locks operate correctly, check for cable slack, test accessibility from front and rear, and power up the equipment to confirm proper connections and airflow. Schedule routine maintenance checks to sustain performance and reliability.
