B-LINE SB5866138UTG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much equipment weight can the B-Line double sided network bay rack hold?
Rated at 340 lb of load capacity across its 75 mounting spaces. That is a distributed rating for patch panels, cross-connect blocks and light network gear, not for stacks of heavy UPS or server chassis. The frame itself weighs 157.61 lb, which matters for floor loading and for how many people you need to stand it up.
2) Do I need to tap threads or use cage nuts to mount panels in this B-Line rack?
Neither. The rails come with 12-24 tapped panel mounting holes on universal spacing, so panels and shelves bolt straight in with 12-24 screws. No cage nuts, no square-hole hardware. If your gear ships with 10-32 screws, order 12-24 hardware to match the rack.
3) Is this B-Line rack approved for a Seismic Zone 4 installation?
The SB5866138UTG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay open duct rack and is UL Listed. It still has to be anchored to the floor, and on a frame this tall most jurisdictions also want top bracing to overhead cable runway or ladder rack, per the engineer of record on the job.
4) What does double sided mean on a B-Line open frame network bay rack?
Double sided means the bay carries mounting rails on both faces, so you can load equipment front and back of the same frame. It's the arrangement used for central office and telco network bays where cross-connect and distribution gear is worked from both sides. A single sided relay rack mounts equipment on one face only.
5) How much floor space does the B-Line SB5866138UTG need?
The frame is 23 inches wide and lists 138 inches for length/depth as well as height. Plan your aisle and anchor layout off the 23 inch width, and allow overhead clearance and lay-down room for a frame of this height when it is being raised into position.
6) Does an open duct rack like this come with side panels or doors?
No. This is an open frame bay, not an enclosure, so there are no side panels, doors or locks. Equipment is exposed for airflow and for access to cabling. If you need physical security or dust protection, you want an enclosed cabinet instead of an open rack.
7) What is the exact part number to order this 138 inch B-Line double sided bay?
Order Eaton B-Line model SB5866138UTG. That number covers the 138 inch high, 23 inch wide double sided bay in telco gray with 12-24 tapped universal rails and 75 mounting spaces.
8) Will this rack match the gray finish on the other frames in my telecom room?
It ships in telco gray powder coat over steel, the standard finish for central office and telecom bays, so it lines up with existing telco gray runway, ladder rack and adjacent frames. If your room was built out in black, this will not match.
9) What is the top angle style on this B-Line network bay?
Top angle refers to the angled member across the top of the frame, which is the standard telco bay detail used for terminating and bracing to overhead cable runway and for supporting the duct at the top of the bay. It is the anchor point you brace to when the frame is 138 inches tall.
