Yes, that is one of the reasons to pick it. The channel is set up for PDU mounting of either 4 half height units or 2 full height units, so you can move power out of the rack's usable RU space and keep power and data separated in the vertical channel.

The RCM version has a removable back cover, so the rear of the channel opens up for adds, moves and changes without pulling the manager off the rack. That matters when the manager sits between two racks in a row and the front is packed with jumpers.

Fabricated steel, 14 gauge, finished in flat black powder coat to match Eaton B-Line series open frame racks. It is a painted steel channel, not injection molded plastic, so it takes the weight of loaded PDUs and heavy copper bundles.

Mounting hardware is included, so it bolts to the B-Line series open frame rack as shipped. At 9.6 lb empty it is a one person hang, though a second set of hands helps when you are lining up an 84 inch channel on both ends at once.

Vertical channels carry the bulk runs up and down the side of the frame and keep them off the equipment; horizontal managers only dress the short jumpers between patch panels and switches at one RU level. On an 84 inch open frame with high port counts you normally want both, and a 12 inch vertical channel is the one that also gives you the PDU mounting space for 4 half height or 2 full height strips.
