B-LINE SB860812D078FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the overall dimensions of the Eaton B-Line SB860812D078FB open frame rack?
The Eaton B-Line open frame rack, model SB860812D078FB, measures 72.625 inches high, 21.625 inches in length/depth, and 12 inches wide. Those numbers matter for two things: the floor footprint you have to leave clear in the closet, and the ceiling height plus clearance above the top of the frame for cable pathway. It weighs 55.4 lb bare, before any equipment loading.
2) Is the B-Line SB860812D078FB rack UL listed for an electrical or IT room installation?
Yes, the B-Line open frame rack carries a UL certification, which is what most facility and institutional specs call for in a telecom or electrical room. It is an electrical-department product, so it is the right family of gear for a wiring closet rather than a general storage shelf.
3) Will an open frame rack like this work in a closet, or do I need an enclosed cabinet?
An open frame rack such as the Eaton B-Line series gives you access from all four sides and free airflow, which is why it is the usual choice for a dedicated, secured telecom or electrical room where the door is the security boundary. If the gear sits in a shared corridor, a break area, or any space where unauthorized hands can reach it, you want an enclosed cabinet with lockable doors instead, not an open frame. Open frames also carry no dust or ingress protection.
4) Do I need floor anchors for the B-Line open frame rack, and is it heavy enough to need a second person?
At 55.4 lb the bare frame is a two-person carry in practice, awkward more than heavy at 72.625 inches tall. Loaded with switches, patch panels, and UPS gear it becomes top-heavy on a 12 inch wide base, so anchoring the base to the slab is standard practice for a floor-standing open rack of this height. Anchors and hardware for the building floor are supplied separately based on your slab type.
