APC AR8560 Open-Bottom Cable Trough
Overview
The APC AR8560 is an open-bottom cable trough designed to route power and data cabling across rack tops, especially in InfraStruXure and NetShelter environments. It supports bulk cable bundles while allowing access from below, reducing interference with equipment or airflow. Measuring 597 × 191.4 × 316.2 mm, it fits standard rack widths without occupying U space. Mounting across the front of the rack, it integrates with rack frames and complements vertical cable management to complete full rack cabling paths. Used in data centers, wiring closets, and telecommunications environments, the AR8560 helps maintain organized cable runs and eases maintenance or future changes in cable layout.
