B-LINE SB87023D2SL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Eaton B-Line SB87023D2SL cable manager mount in a standard 19 inch rack?
Yes. The SB87023D2SL is built to a 19 inch width, which is the standard EIA rack mounting width, and it mounts directly to the rack rails of a two post open frame rack. Its 2.4 inch height works out to just over 1U of rack space (1U is 1.75 inches), so plan on it consuming 2U of panel space between patch panels or switches.
2) Is this a single sided or double sided horizontal cable manager?
Single sided. The B-Line RCM horizontal cable manager routes cable on the front face only, with plastic fingers holding the bundles, and it is intended for two post open frame racks where you still need to reach the back of the patch panel.
3) How far does this cable manager stick out from the rack, and will it clear a cabinet door?
The manager measures 12.1 inches on its length/depth dimension, with a 2.4 inch height and 19 inch width. That depth figure is the reason it is specified for open two post racks rather than shallow enclosed cabinets, so check your enclosure's internal depth against 12.1 inches before you plan on mounting it inside a door.
4) What is the B-Line RCM cable manager made of, and will it match my existing silver racks?
Steel body in 14 gauge with a silver powder coat, and black plastic fingers. If your open frame racks are B-Line silver powder coat, the finish is the same family, so it reads as a matched install rather than a patch.
5) Does the B-Line SB87023D2SL horizontal cable manager come with a rack, or is it just the manager?
You get the horizontal cable manager itself, model SB87023D2SL, sized to fit a two post rack. It is the pathway component, not the rack, so the two post open frame rack, the patch panels, and any vertical managers are separate line items.
6) Do I need a horizontal cable manager or a vertical one for a two post relay rack?
They do different jobs. This RCM unit is horizontal: it bolts between rack-mounted gear and carries patch cords sideways across the rack face, keeping slack off the panel ports and leaving the back of the patch panel reachable. Vertical managers run the full height at the sides of the rack and carry the bulk cable feed up and down. Most two post installs use both, with one horizontal unit above or below each patch panel.
7) How much does the SB87023D2SL weigh for rack load calculations?
3.7 lb. That is negligible against the load rating of any two post rack, so the only real planning concern is the 2U of panel space it takes, not the weight.
