B-LINE SB5472096TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Eaton B-Line SB5472096TG rack rated for a seismic zone 4 installation?
Yes. The SB5472096TG is a seismic zone 4 network bay open duct rack, so it is built for the highest seismic zone classification. It is also UL Listed. For the seismic rating to carry through on the job, the rack still has to be anchored to the floor per the structural detail on your drawings.
2) What is the maximum rail mounting depth on the Eaton B-Line SB5472096TG network rack?
Rail mounting depth tops out at 24 inches. That is the deepest equipment mounting position the rails support, so measure your deepest chassis (switches with rear cable managers and power supplies are usually the culprit) against that 24 inch figure before you commit. Anything deeper needs a different rack or an enclosure.
3) What finish and material is the B-Line SB5472096TG rack, and will it match existing telco equipment?
Steel construction with a telco gray powder coat. That is the standard telco/central office color, so it lines up visually with existing telco bays and distribution frames in a carrier or MDF room rather than the black finish common on commercial data racks.
4) How much does the Eaton B-Line SB5472096TG rack weigh, and can one person set it?
The rack weighs 124 pounds bare. That is a two-person lift to stand it up, and it is before any equipment load. Plan your floor anchoring and, if it is going on a raised floor, confirm the pedestal support under the base.
5) What does top channel style mean on the B-Line SB5472096TG open rack?
Top channel style means the frame is capped with a channel across the top of the uprights rather than an open top. That channel is the structural tie between the uprights and it is what you land ladder rack and overhead cable runway against when you bay racks together in a row.
6) Should I use an open frame rack like this or a fully enclosed cabinet for my network gear?
An open frame network bay like the SB5472096TG gives you access from all four sides and unrestricted airflow, which is why it is the standard choice in a controlled MDF, telco or IT closet where physical security of the room already covers the equipment. Go with an enclosed cabinet instead when the gear sits in a shared or public space, needs locking doors, or needs contained hot/cold aisle airflow. The open rack also makes high density cable dressing much easier since there are no side panels in the way.
7) What part number do I order for the 96 inch Eaton B-Line telco gray seismic rack?
Order Eaton B-Line part number SB5472096TG. That single MPN covers the 96 inch high, 23 inch wide steel seismic zone 4 network bay in telco gray powder coat, so there is no finish or height option to specify separately.
