B-Line Eaton series open racks, 60.375" height, 7" length, 6" width, Aluminum, RCM rack mounted vertical cable manager single sided, Direct pdu mount

Single sided. The RCM rack mounted vertical cable manager routes cable on one face of the rack upright, so if you need managed cable on both the front and rear of the same upright you would order two, or specify a double sided manager instead.

Direct PDU mounting means the manager body is drilled to accept a vertical rack PDU fastened straight to it, so the power strip lives inside the cable channel instead of eating a separate rack position. The PDU itself is a separate order, and it has to be a vertical unit whose mounting pattern suits direct attachment.

The manager uses low density plastic snap on gates, and cabling is routed between those gates. You pop a gate off to lay in or pull out a bundle rather than threading cable through a closed channel, which is what you want on a rack that gets re-patched. Gates and other plastic components are black to match the flat black powder coat frame.

UL is listed among its certifications, which is normally the first box a facility or MRO spec asks about on rack infrastructure. Finish is flat black powder coat, so it matches standard black open frame racks and other black accessories already in the room.

They do different jobs and most builds use both. This 60.375 inch vertical manager carries the trunk of the cable up and down the side of the rack, keeping bundles off the equipment faces, and it includes a vertical cabling section for that run. Horizontal managers handle the short slack between a patch panel and the switch directly below it. If cable is crossing more than a couple of rack units, it belongs in the vertical channel.

At 8.3 lb it is a one person install. The body is aluminum rather than steel, which is why a 60-3/8 inch length stays that light, and it keeps the loaded weight on the rack uprights low.
