Pre-integrated rack configuration and factory capability

What are Pre-integrated rack configurations

Pre-integrated racks are Assemble to Order configurations for a speedy and hassle free deployment .
They save time,money, space for end users and system integrators receiving, deploying, and installing products and keep them focused on the IT rather than physical infrastructure.

Your selected rack and other equipment are assembled in one package before shipping  in a Schneider Electric factory and are ready to use in your premises. These are ideal solutions for edge and IoT applications where deployment speed, reliability and security is paramount.

Users can choose to pre-integrate any rack which has at least one piece of equipment in it to pre-integrate.

Pre-integration is limited to Schneider Electric products only. For a complete listing of products the LEC will identify those racks that can be pre-integrated and accessories available for integration will be identified as added. For a comprehensive list view this reference chart 

How does it work?

Local Edge configurator helps you to create a pre-integrated rack configuration in three easy steps. Tool ensures that accessories required to pre-integrate your design are automatically included in your design. Follow the steps below for sending your rack configuration for pre-integration in Schneider Electric factories.

NOTE: FOR NETSHELTER SX RACKS - IF WEIGHT OF EQUIPMENT EXCEEDS PROCEED TO STEP 4.

Switch back to normal mode by clicking again on the pre-integrate icon. In that case the selected rack will not be pre-integrated and all the equipment and rack will be shipped in separate packages and will require onsite assembly.

4. Choose a shock pallet rack option.

For proper shipment of the rack and installed equipment a shock pallet is required when exceeding the weight limit of the standard pallet. The weight limits of the standard pallet are:

• -300lb (136kg) for 600-700mm racks
• -375lb (170kg) 750-800mm racks

If you exceed this threshold a warning will appear and require another rack to be chosen to complete the design with pre-integration.

Note: NetShelter CX and SX3K racks always ship on a shock pallet
