APC 20U Copper Busbar Kit for NetShelter AV Enclosures

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

The APC 20U Copper Busbar Kit for NetShelter AV enclosures is one of those “boring but absolutely worth it” add-ons. If you’re building an AV rack environment that needs proper grounding and a tidy, reliable power distribution path, this kit saves you faffing around and guessing. It’s priced fairly for what it is: you’re paying for compatibility and workmanship, not just copper. In practice, that means fewer headaches when you’re cable-managing in a confined rack and trying to keep earth/ground connections correct and repeatable.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it unless you’re actually using APC’s NetShelter AV enclosure system and you care about doing it properly. If your install is small, you already have a solid grounding solution, or you’re mixing gear that doesn’t really benefit from this level of busbar organisation, then you may be throwing money at an accessory you won’t fully leverage. It’s a good buy for integrators and IT/AV teams doing repeat installs, where consistency and reduced troubleshooting time matter more than squeezing every penny.
