APC NetShelter AR4038A User Manual

Before installing the enclosure, plan the location and space needed to install equipment, and plan the 
ergonomics of keyboards and video monitors. Improper airflow could damage installed components.

Use blanking panels to close up large 
open spaces in the CX but not to 
completely seal the rack. The 
NetShelter CX works best when air 
can travel not just through the 
equipment vents, but also above and 
below any equipment that generates 
thermal energy.

APC offers modular, plastic Airflow Management Blanking Panels that snap into place without tools 
(AR8136BLK).

The front doors and side panels may be opened or removed to access the interior. Locking side panels 
offer additional security and assist with proper airflow within the enclosure. The locking side panel does 
not ship locked. To avoid personal injury or damage to the enclosure, one person should support the door 
or side panel while another person removes the door or side panel from its frame.

Slide the hinge on the door or side 

panel into the front of the mounting plate attached to 
the inside of the enclosure. 

Using finger pressure, press the hinge onto the 
mounting plate. The latch will secure with an 
audible click.

WEIGHT AND LEVERAGE HAZARD
Doors and side panels are heavy. Removal or installation requires two people.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in moderate personal injury.
