NetShelter SX 48U 1070mm Deep Split Side Panels Black Qty 2

Upgrade your NetShelter SX rack with this robust pair of split side panels, engineered to fit exactly the 48U, 1070mm deep NetShelter SX enclosures. Whether you’re expanding, reconfiguring, or tightening up cabling pathways, these panels deliver a clean, professional look while preserving airflow, security, and accessibility. The split design makes it easier to service internal components without removing doors or front panels, helping technicians work faster and reducing downtime in data centers, server rooms, and IT closets. Crafted to withstand the rigors of daily rack usage, these panels are a practical investment for growing IT environments that demand reliability and organized clutter-free spaces.

• Compatibility and access: Specifically designed for NetShelter SX 48U racks with a 1070mm depth, these split side panels provide convenient rear-side access to cabling and equipment. The dual-panel configuration creates a clear separation between front-access operations and rear maintenance, enabling technicians to reconfigure cable routes, replace drives, or upgrade components without wrestling with a single solid side. This design is ideal for high-density deployments where frequent service and rework are common, as it minimizes disruption while preserving security and enclosure integrity.
• Durable construction and black finish: Built from quality steel and finished with a durable black powder coat, the split side panels resist corrosion and everyday wear in busy data centers. The matte black appearance maintains a consistent aesthetic with NetShelter SX enclosures, blending seamlessly with other rack components. The finish also helps minimize visible fingerprints and smudges, ensuring a clean, professional look in both colocation facilities and in-house IT rooms.
• Enhanced cable management and airflow: By offering two accessible panels, the product supports thoughtful cable routing behind each panel while keeping front-facing sections tidy. The split design enables better organization of power, data, and management cables, reducing tangling and improving airflow paths around critical devices. When paired with proper cabling practices and rack organization, these panels help maintain efficient cooling and reduce hot spots in densely populated racks.
• Easy installation and compatibility with existing hardware: These panels are designed to work with standard NetShelter SX mounting rails and enclosure hardware. You can install or replace them using the same mounting points you already use for side panels, doors, and rails. The straightforward fit minimizes downtime and makes it simple to scale or reconfigure your rack as requirements evolve. For best results, align panels carefully with rails, ensure proper engagement with fasteners, and verify that doors still align properly after installation.
• Value, versatility, and scalability: Adding split side panels to a NetShelter SX system is a cost-effective way to extend your enclosure’s lifespan and adapt to changing workloads. Whether you’re consolidating gear, separating critical systems from test gear, or creating dedicated zones for cabling management, this two-panel kit provides a flexible solution that grows with your IT footprint. The black panels maintain a professional, uniform look across your rack ecosystem while delivering practical benefits in security, organization, and serviceability.

How to install NetShelter SX 48U 1070mm Deep Split Side Panels Black Qty 2

• Power down and securely shut down equipment as required. Disconnect any interfaces that could be affected during panel replacement or installation.
• Open or remove the existing side panels if you are upgrading a current enclosure. Confirm that the rack rails are clean and free of debris to ensure a proper fit.
• Position the split side panels against the rack, aligning them with the mounting rails and factory mounting points. Start with one panel on one side, then place the second panel, ensuring that both halves seat evenly and align with the enclosure frame.
• Secure panels using the standard mounting hardware that accompanies your NetShelter SX system or the hardware already employed on your rack. Tighten fasteners evenly to avoid warping and verify that the panels sit flush against the rack perimeter without gaps.
• Test the fit by lightly closing doors and performing a brief check of cable management behind the panels. Ensure there is no binding on doors, rails, or cables, and confirm that airflow paths remain clear. Reconnect equipment and power up, then monitor for any interference or alignment issues.
