B-LINE SB5961911AFB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What mounting hardware do I need for the B-Line center mount rack shelf?
It ships as a #12-24 mounting hardware configuration, so it goes into tapped #12-24 rack rails. If your rack rails are 10-32 tapped or square hole with cage nuts, you will need the matching screws or cage nut and screw sets for those rails instead.
2) Is this shelf strong enough for heavy network gear, or is it just for light equipment?
It is an aluminum shelf weighing 2.8 lb with an 11 inch depth, so it is built for light, shallow equipment such as media converters, small switches, modems or test gear. For deep or heavy servers you want a steel shelf or a pair of full depth rails supporting the chassis at four points rather than a center mount shelf.
3) What does center mount mean on a B-Line rack shelf, and how is it different from a front mount shelf?
Center mount means the shelf brackets attach at the mid point of the shelf rather than at the front edge, so the 11 inch shelf platform sits partly in front of and partly behind the rack rails. That balances the load on an open frame rack where equipment is accessed from both sides. A front mount shelf cantilevers the whole depth behind the rails and is what you want in an enclosed cabinet where everything sits behind the door.
4) How much rack space does the SB5961911AFB shelf take up?
The shelf is 2 inches high. A rack unit is 1.75 inches, so plan on two rack units of vertical space once you allow clearance for whatever sits on the shelf.
5) How do I order the exact B-Line shelf and make sure I get the black one?
Order by part number SB5961911AFB. That number covers the aluminum center mount rack shelf in flat black powder coat with #12-24 mounting hardware; there is a single configuration, so there is no separate finish or hardware option to specify.
6) Will the finish on this B-Line shelf match my black open frame rack?
The shelf is finished in flat black powder coat, the same finish B-Line uses across its black open frame rack line, so it matches racks and accessories ordered in that finish. Against a gloss black or anodized clear rack it will read slightly different.
7) Does the aluminum construction matter for a data closet or telecom room shelf?
Aluminum keeps the shelf light at 2.8 lb, which makes it easy to install single handed on an open frame rack and avoids adding much weight to a wall mounted or seismic rated frame. It also will not rust in a damp MDF or basement telecom room the way an uncoated steel shelf can.
