B-LINE SB5768084TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Eaton B-Line SB5768084TG rack rated for a Seismic Zone 4 installation?
Yes. The SB5768084TG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay open duct rack, which is the rating facilities in high seismic regions need to spec. It is also UL Listed. Anchoring to the slab per the seismic detail on your drawings is still on the installer.
2) How many rack units does this 84 inch B-Line open frame rack give me?
48 mounting spaces on an 84 inch tall frame. That is enough for a full network bay of switches and patch panels without stacking a second rack, and the open frame means you get at the cabling from every side.
3) Will standard 19 inch patch panels and switches bolt into this rack, or do I need cage nuts?
The rails are punched with 12-24 panel mounting holes, so gear mounts with 12-24 screws straight into the tapped rail. No cage nuts or clip nuts needed, unlike a square-hole rack. Order 12-24 rack screws to suit the equipment you are mounting; they are a separate item.
4) What floor space do I need to plan for this B-Line network bay rack?
Plan on a footprint from a 23 inch width and 84 inch depth dimension, with an 84 inch height. In an open frame layout you also want service clearance front and rear, so do not lay it out tight to a wall.
5) How heavy is the SB5768084TG rack, and can one person set it?
It weighs 118 lb as a steel frame, before any equipment. That is a two-person lift to stand it up and walk it into position, and you will want the anchors laid out before it goes vertical.
6) What does the top angle style on this B-Line rack do for cable management?
Top angle style means the frame carries an angled top member you can land overhead cable runway and vertical duct off of, which is why it is sold as a network bay open duct rack. It is aimed at rooms where cable comes in overhead rather than under a raised floor.
7) Is an open frame rack like this the right choice, or should I use an enclosed cabinet?
An open frame such as the SB5768084TG suits a secured telecom or IDF room where you want free airflow and access to cabling from all sides, and where overhead duct and runway feed the bay. If the gear sits in a shared or public space, or needs locking doors and physical security, an enclosed cabinet is the better call. The open frame gives no door, no sides, and no lock.
8) Will this rack match the gray equipment racks already in my telecom room?
The finish is Telco gray powder coat over steel, the standard color used across telecom and network bay racks, so it lines up visually with existing Telco gray frames and ladder rack. Only one finish is offered on this model.
