B-LINE SB5557108TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much floor space and what footprint should I allow for the B-Line SB5557108TG rack?
Width is 23 inches, and the listed length/depth is 108 inches. Lay that out on the floor plan before you set anchors, and keep front and rear working clearance in addition to the footprint since this is a double sided frame, meaning it is worked from both faces.
2) What does an open duct unequal flange rack mean, and when would I choose one over an enclosed cabinet?
An open duct unequal flange rack is an open frame, not an enclosure. There are no side panels or doors, so cable enters and exits freely and the gear is reached from both sides. The unequal flange refers to the uneven leg depths on the upright channel, which sets how far the mounted equipment sits forward or back relative to the frame. Pick this type for a secured telecom or equipment room where you want maximum cable access and passive airflow. If the room is shared, dusty, or needs physical security on the gear itself, an enclosed cabinet is the right call instead.
3) How heavy is the SB5557108TG rack, and can one person set it?
It weighs 99 pounds bare. That is a two-person lift at minimum given the 108 inch length, and you want a third hand to hold it plumb while the base is anchored. Budget for the steel construction adding nothing to that figure beyond what is listed, since 99 pounds is the rack alone with no equipment mounted.
4) Does the B-Line SB5557108TG have a top channel for overhead cable tray or runway?
Yes, it is a top channel style rack. That top member is what you tie ladder rack or cable runway into overhead, and it is also where you brace the frame back to structure on a 108 inch tall unit. Order the runway, butt splice kits, and threaded rod separately, as none of that comes with the rack.
5) What is the exact part number to order the 108 inch Eaton B-Line open rack?
The manufacturer part number is SB5557108TG from Eaton's B-Line series. That single model number covers the 108 inch open frame configuration, so there is no separate finish or height suffix to specify on the order.
6) What is the B-Line SB5557108TG rack made of?
Steel throughout, with a powder coat finish. Steel is what lets an open frame this tall carry loaded equipment without racking, and the powder coat holds up in an unconditioned MDF or utility room better than bare or painted stock.
