Product Description

The APC AR3157WSP is a 48U open-frame enclosure cabinet designed for structured rack-mount installations in data centers, server rooms, and network equipment environments. Standing at 48U of usable rack space with a 750mm internal width, this cabinet provides organized, secure housing for servers, patch panels, switches, and other rack-mount equipment. Installation is performed by IT infrastructure technicians or low-voltage contractors working in structured cabling and data environments. The AR3157WSP is part of APC's NetShelter SX line, a widely deployed cabinet series built for high-density equipment deployments requiring reliable physical organization and cable management.

This cabinet suits commercial and enterprise applications where rack-mount equipment must be housed in a fixed, managed enclosure. Typical install scenarios include server rooms, network closets, and data center floor deployments handling high-density server or networking loads. The 48U height accommodates a full complement of 1U through multi-U equipment, making it appropriate for builds ranging from small business server stacks to branch office infrastructure deployments.
