APC ACDC2501 - 600 mm Roof-Height Adapter for NetShelter (42U SX → VX)
Overview
The APC ACDC2501 is a height-adapter module for NetShelter aisle-containment systems used when a 42U SX rack needs to match the height of a VX-level containment ceiling. In practical terms, it's used to extend the rack height by 600 mm, ensuring the top of the rack aligns with containment rails or ductwork. This is especially relevant when retrofitting containment in existing installations without replacing the existing rack. This adapter helps maintain a continuous thermal barrier, minimizing hot/cold-aisle mixing and preserving the integrity of your airflow design.
Key Features
Adds 600 mm (≈ 23.6 in) vertical clearance to 42U SX racks, enabling compatibility with VX-height containment.
Sturdy steel construction ensures the adapter remains structurally sound under containment load.
Black finish matches the standard NetShelter containment aesthetic.
RoHS-compliant, aligning with environmental and sustainability standard
Backed by a 5-year limited warranty under APC's containment policy.
