15NetShelter CX Enclosure: Installation and Customization
Cable Management
The NetShelter CX enclosure has a cable access opening (cable port) at the rear of the enclosure. The
38U enclosure has an additional cable port at the top for cabling from above. Four vertical 0U accessory
channels are factory installed in the enclosures.
A variety of other cable management accessories are available. Visit the website at www.apc.com and go
to the NetShelter CX product page for a full list of compatible cable management accessories.
Rear cable access port
The cable port is large enough to
accommodate several hundred ethernet
cables and has a removable top cover.
The design is such that pre-terminated
data distribution panels can be installed
effortlessly, with no need for de-
termination and re-termination.
Unscrew and remove one of the two
thumbscrews to swing open the port
door. Unscrew and remove the second
thumbscrew to fully remove the cable
port door.
Vertical 0U accessory channels
The vertical 0U accessory channels provide toolless mounting capabilities for APC Rack Power
Distribution Units, APC cable containment brackets, and tie-off locations for cables. The standard
position for the accessory channels is two located in the front of the enclosure and two in the rear of the
enclosure.
Removing vertical 0U accessory channels.
Vertical 0U accessory channels can be removed
completely from the enclosure. Loosen the fasteners
that attach the vertical 0U accessory to the enclosure.
