B-LINE SB86086S096FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 6 inch wide vertical cable manager fit alongside my open frame rack in a standard data closet aisle?
The Eaton B-Line SB86086S096FB vertical cable manager is 6 inches wide and 10.8125 inches deep, so it adds 6 inches to the overall footprint of the rack it bolts beside. At 90.125 inches tall it runs the full height of a standard 7-foot open frame rack, so plan the aisle for the added 6 inches on whichever side you mount it.
2) Can I mount power strips or PDUs inside this B-Line vertical cable manager?
Yes. The SB86086S096FB is built for direct PDU mounting, so a vertical rack PDU attaches into the manager channel itself rather than eating rack units on the front rails. That is the main reason integrators pick this version over a plain finger duct.
3) Do the cables stay in place when the cable manager door is opened or taken off?
They do. The high density plastic fingers hold cables in the channel when the door is opened or removed, so you are not catching a bundle in one hand while working the other. Fingers are black plastic, matching the flat black powder coat on the aluminum body.
4) Is this cable manager aluminum or steel, and does it matter for a telecom room?
The body is aluminum with a flat black powder coat finish. Aluminum keeps the unit light, 19.9 lb for a full 90.125 inch section, which means one tech can stand it up and fasten it without a second set of hands.
5) Is this B-Line vertical cable manager UL listed for a spec job?
UL is the certification carried on the SB86086S096FB vertical cable manager, which is typically what a specifier or inspector wants to see on cable management in an electrical or telecom room.
6) What comes in the box, and do I need separate hardware to attach it to the rack?
The SB86086S096FB ships as a vertical cable section with push in fasteners included, so the finger section attaches without loose hardware to source separately. Any PDU you intend to mount in the channel is a separate purchase.
7) Should I use a vertical cable manager like this or horizontal managers between my patch panels?
A 90.125 inch vertical section like the SB86086S096FB handles the cable running up and down the side of the rack, between switch and patch panel levels, and is where PDU power cords get routed since it also takes a direct mounted PDU. Horizontal managers only handle the short jumper slack at one level. Most open frame builds use both: verticals on the sides for the trunk runs, horizontals for patch cord service loops.
8) Will this black cable manager match the other racks and managers already in my rack row?
Finish is flat black powder coat on the aluminum with black plastic components, the standard black used across Eaton B-Line open frame rack accessories, so it reads consistently next to existing black racks and managers.
