FAQ
Q: Does the AR2400 support hot-aisle/cold-aisle containment accessories?
A: Yes. APC NetShelter SV enclosures are compatible with APC's containment and cooling accessories, enabling hot-aisle or cold-aisle containment deployment for improved data centre cooling efficiency.
Q: How does the AR2400 differ from the AR2480?
A: The AR2400 is 600mm wide; the AR2480 is 800mm wide. The wider AR2480 accommodates larger equipment or additional PDU/cabling space. Both offer the same 1060mm depth and 42U capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many rack units (U) does the AR2400 provide, and what scale of data centre or server deployment does it support?
The AR2400 is a 42U floor-standing enclosure, accommodating 40–42 servers, multiple storage arrays, UPS systems, and networking equipment. This capacity suits mid-size data centre buildouts, enterprise server farms, and high-availability infrastructure in regional offices across the GCC.
What are the internal dimensions of the AR2400, and will my equipment fit comfortably?
The AR2400 measures 600mm wide × 1060mm deep internally, providing standard 19-inch rack width and approximately 1060mm internal depth. Verify your largest equipment (servers, storage arrays) against this depth; items deeper than 1060mm will not fit.
What is the static load rating, and how many fully loaded server trays can the AR2400 safely support?
The AR2400 has a static load rating of 1700 kg, sufficient for most data centre equipment mixes (servers, storage, UPS). For a detailed load calculation specific to your hardware stack, contact Procure.ae to ensure safe operation and prevent structural stress.
How do the side panels affect cooling and airflow management in a rack with high-density servers?
Side panels provide airflow containment, directing hot exhaust upward and out of the data centre (useful for hot-aisle/cold-aisle setups). Ensure rear exhaust vents have clear space and that intake air enters the front unobstructed; Procure.ae can discuss hot-aisle/cold-aisle design for your data centre layout.
Is the seismic-rated frame necessary for a data centre in the UAE, and does it improve reliability?
Seismic-rating means the AR2400 is engineered for robust construction and stability during minor building movement or vibration, improving overall equipment safety. While the UAE has low seismic risk, the reinforced design enhances durability under daily equipment movement and installation stresses.
Can the heavy-duty casters roll smoothly across a data centre floor, and are they lockable for stability?
Yes, the AR2400 includes heavy-duty casters rated for full-load rolling and levelling feet for final positioning. Casters lock in place to prevent unintended movement once the rack is positioned, critical for securing cables and cooling arrangements.
How soon can Procure.ae deliver a 42U NetShelter SV rack to a data centre site in the UAE or GCC?
Procure.ae supplies large server racks across the UAE and GCC on a request-a-quote basis. Lead times depend on in-stock availability and your site preparation; contact the team to plan delivery and installation scheduling.
What on-site setup and positioning is required before we can begin racking equipment in the AR2400?
The rack arrives largely pre-assembled with casters and levelling feet; on-site setup involves positioning it on the data centre floor, levelling with feet, locking casters, and integrating power/cooling. Procure.ae can discuss any custom mounting or cable preparation needed.
What is included with the AR2400 and are cable trays, PDUs, or cooling accessories bundled?
The AR2400 includes side panels, seismic-rated frame, heavy-gauge rails, casters, and levelling feet. Cable management trays, cooling blanking panels, and PDUs are typically ordered separately; Procure.ae will detail optional accessories and their pricing.
What warranty and certifications does APC provide for this 42U server rack?
APC provides a limited warranty on NetShelter enclosures covering manufacturing defects. The rack is built to industry standards for data centre equipment; for specific certifications, load guarantees, and regional support in the GCC, contact Procure.ae.
How does the 600mm-wide × 1060mm-deep footprint compare to larger NetShelter models for space efficiency in a data centre?
The AR2400 is a space-efficient standard 19-inch rack suitable for most servers and storage arrays up to ~1060mm depth. Larger models (800mm wide, 1200mm deep) offer more internal width for very large equipment; the AR2400 is ideal for typical enterprise deployments where floor space is valuable.
