The APC AR8186 is a cable manager mounting kit, specifically designed for structured cabling in server and network environments. It serves as a mounting set for cable manager systems and enables the elevation of cable managers, for example, over cable trays or NetShelter enclosure covers. Mounting is performed on the top surface of devices or structures, thereby achieving an organized and accessible cable routing within the rack. The product is black in color and consists of two adjustable brackets that can be mounted on various surfaces.
Applications
This mounting kit is primarily designed for cabling in data centers and IT infrastructures. It is suitable for securing cable managers to the top of cable trays to raise cable height, or to the covers of NetShelter enclosures. Another application is the mounting of the Overhead Zone Cabling 4HE Patch Frame (VDIM33174), where the kit functions as a mounting component. The flexible mounting option on various surfaces makes it universally applicable in different rack and enclosure configurations.
Features and Equipment in Detail
The kit includes two brackets that can be mounted on various surfaces. The brackets are adjustable, allowing for customizable mounting height. Mounting is done using fastening materials included in the delivery scope. The product color is black, ensuring visual integration into typical IT infrastructures. The brackets are not rack-mountable, but designed for mounting on the top surface of devices or structures. The product dimensions are 86.5 mm (width), 65 mm (depth), and 161.5 mm (height); the product weight is 280 g.
Technology Explained Simply
The adjustable brackets allow flexible adaptation to different mounting conditions. Mounting is performed on the top surface of cable trays, enclosure covers, or other structures, thereby lifting the cable managers above the top edge. This improves cable accessibility and organization, especially in densely populated rack environments. Mounting does not include integrated fans, switches, or castors, as the product serves exclusively as a mechanical mounting component. The construction is designed for stable and durable fastening, without additional electrical or mechanical functions.
Compatibility and Accessories
The mounting kit is compatible with cable manager systems and is specifically recommended for use with NetShelter enclosures. It serves as a mounting component for the Overhead Zone Cabling 4HE Patch Frame (VDIM33174), enabling structured zone cabling. The brackets are designed for mounting on various surfaces, including cable trays and enclosure roofs. The product is used in conjunction with cable managers routed through the brackets.
Installation and Mounting
Mounting is performed on the top surface of devices or structures, with the adjustable brackets installed using the included fastening materials. Installation requires no special tools or additional components. The brackets are designed to ensure stable mounting without requiring additional mechanical or electrical elements. The mounting position is limited to the top surface, with no specific preferred position indicated.
Operational Advantages
The cable manager mounting kit improves cable organization and accessibility in rack environments. Elevating the cable managers above cable trays or enclosure roofs reduces cable clutter and facilitates maintenance and inspection. The flexible mounting on various surfaces increases adaptability to different infrastructures. Using the kit in conjunction with the Overhead Zone Cabling 4HE Patch Frame supports structured zone cabling, enhancing the efficiency and clarity of the network infrastructure. The product is compliant with RoHS, REACH, and WEEE, ensuring environmental compatibility and recyclability. The warranty period is 24 months.
Certification and Environment
The product meets the requirements of the REACH regulation and is RoHS-compliant, ensuring the avoidance of hazardous substances. It is also WEEE-compliant, providing for proper disposal and recycling at end-of-life. The product’s total CO₂ footprint is 3 kg CO₂ equivalents, with the largest portion attributed to the manufacturing phase. The packaging is not made of recycled cardboard and contains plastic, with no special recycling procedures required. The product is manufactured in China and delivered in individual packaging with dimensions of 186 mm (width), 124 mm (depth), and 95 mm (height). The package weight is 750 g.
Delivery Contents
