B-LINE SB5566108FB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Eaton B-Line SB5566108FB rack rated for a Seismic Zone 4 installation?
Yes. The B-Line SB5566108FB is built as a Seismic Zone 4, open duct unequal flange rack, so it is intended for equipment rooms where seismic anchoring of the frame is required. It is also UL Listed. Zone 4 anchoring still depends on your floor attachment detail and the engineer's calculation for the loaded weight.
2) What are the dimensions and weight of the B-Line SB5566108FB open frame rack?
The rack lists a height of 108 inches, a length/depth of 108 inches, and a width of 23 inches, with a product weight of 107 lb. At 108 inches of height you need to confirm ceiling clearance and overhead cable tray or sprinkler heads before the frame goes up, and the 107 lb bare weight matters for how many people are needed to stand it.
3) What does double sided mean on this B-Line seismic rack?
Double sided means the frame is accessible from front and rear rather than being a single-face wall frame. That is what you want when switches and patch panels need to be worked from both sides, and it means the rack has to stand off the wall with working clearance behind it, not tight against it.
4) Should I use an open frame rack like this or a fully enclosed cabinet for network switches?
An open frame rack such as the B-Line SB5566108FB gives you unobstructed access on both sides and open duct routing for cable, which suits a secured telecom or equipment room where airflow and cable volume matter more than physical enclosure. Choose an enclosed cabinet instead when the space is shared or public and the gear needs to be locked away, or when you need dust and contaminant control. This one is an open frame, not a cabinet.
5) What part number do I order for this B-Line seismic open frame rack?
Order it by Eaton B-Line model SB5566108FB. That single model number covers the 108 inch tall, 23 inch wide double sided Seismic Zone 4 open duct frame in flat black.
6) What is the finish on the Eaton B-Line SB5566108FB rack, and will it match other racks in the room?
Flat black powder coat over a steel frame. If your existing lineup is black powder coated B-Line frames, this matches that appearance; if the room is standard grey or white equipment, it will not.
7) What is the top angle style on this B-Line rack for?
Top angle refers to the angle member across the top of the frame, which is where overhead cable runway or ladder rack ties into the rack and where the seismic bracing connects at the head of the frame. Runway, waterfall kits, and bonding hardware are ordered separately from the rack itself.
