NetShelter 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.
