B-LINE SB5874108TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How many rack units does the Eaton B-Line SB5874108TG hold?
37 mounting spaces on the SB5874108TG open frame rack. That is the usable panel capacity across the 108 inch frame height, and it is what you size your switch, patch panel and rack-mount UPS stack against before you order.
2) What screws do I need for the B-Line SB5874108TG rack rails?
The rails are punched with 12-24 panel mounting holes, so you need 12-24 rack screws and matching cage-free hardware. Equipment shipped with 10-32 or M6 screws will not thread into this rack, so order 12-24 hardware with the gear.
3) Is this B-Line rack rated for a seismic zone 4 installation?
Yes. The SB5874108TG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay closed duct rack, so it is the version to specify for California and other high seismic design areas. It is also UL Listed. It still has to be anchored to the slab and braced per the engineer's detail on your drawings.
4) Will standard 19 inch rack equipment mount in this Eaton B-Line bay?
Yes. The SB5874108TG is a 19 inch wide frame with 12-24 punched mounting rails, which is the standard telco and network equipment pattern. Switches, patch panels and rack shelves cut for 19 inch EIA mounting will land on it as long as you use 12-24 screws.
5) Is an open frame rack like this right for my install, or do I need an enclosed cabinet?
An open frame bay such as the SB5874108TG suits a secured telecom or MDF room where you want unobstructed access to cabling on all four sides and free airflow. It has no doors, no side panels and no locks, so it gives no physical security and no dust protection. If the gear sits in a shared space, a classroom, or a warehouse floor, use a locking enclosed cabinet instead.
6) How heavy is the B-Line SB5874108TG rack and how many people to set it?
The frame weighs 127.19 lb bare. At 108 inches tall and 19 inches wide it is awkward more than it is heavy, so plan on two people to walk it in and stand it up, plus floor anchors set before you load any equipment.
7) What is the B-Line SB5874108TG rack made of, and will it hold up in a plant or garage environment?
Steel, 11 gauge, to ASTM A1011SS, finished in Telco gray powder coat. That is a heavy structural gauge with a baked finish meant for indoor equipment rooms. It is not a corrosion-rated finish, so keep it out of wash-down areas and unconditioned spaces that see condensation.
8) Will the Telco gray finish match the other racks already in my telecom room?
If the existing bays are Telco gray, yes. The SB5874108TG carries a Telco gray powder coat, the standard telecom equipment color, so a new bay lines up visually with existing Telco gray racks and ladder rack when you extend a lineup.
