B-LINE SB576A03FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the B-Line SB576A03FB adapter plate actually do?
It's a pair of adapter plates that let 19 inch rack-mount panels bolt into a 23 inch open equipment rack. The model designation is literally "23" equipment rack to 19" panel mount adapter plate." You get two plates plus #12-24 mounting hardware, and they give you 3 mounting spaces (3U) of usable 19 inch panel space.
2) Will 19 inch patch panels and switches mount in my 23 inch B-Line open rack with these plates?
Yes, that is exactly the purpose. The SB576A03FB plate set spans the extra width of a 23 inch open frame rack and presents 19 inch EIA mounting rails, so standard 19 inch gear bolts straight in. You get three rack units of space per set, so plan one set per 3U of 19 inch equipment you need to hang.
3) I have a 19 inch rack and 23 inch panels. Can I use this the other way around?
No. The SB576A03FB works in one direction only: it adapts a 23 inch equipment rack to accept 19 inch panels. It does not widen a 19 inch rack. For 23 inch gear you need a 23 inch rack or a different widening kit.
4) Does the B-Line adapter plate kit come with screws, or do I need to order hardware separately?
#12-24 mounting hardware ships with the kit, along with the two plates. #12-24 is the thread B-Line open racks are tapped for, so no separate hardware order is needed to attach the plates. Screws for your own 19 inch panels depend on what came with that equipment.
5) How much vertical rack space does the SB576A03FB adapter take up?
Three mounting spaces, which is 3U. The plate measures 5.19 inches on its height dimension, consistent with a 3U opening, and the kit leaves a 1/2 inch space between racks.
6) What is the B-Line part number to order for the 3U 23 inch to 19 inch adapter?
Order Eaton B-Line SB576A03FB. That single part number covers the complete set: two flat black 11 gauge plates with #12-24 hardware, 3 mounting spaces.
7) What gauge steel and finish is the B-Line 23 to 19 inch adapter plate?
11 gauge steel with a flat black powder coat, so it matches the standard black B-Line open frame racks and relay racks rather than standing out as bare metal. Each plate weighs 1.1 lb.
