B-LINE SB5871084TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this B-Line rack rated for use in a seismic zone 4 data room?
It is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay open duct rack, which is the designation for the highest seismic classification used in the older UBC zoning scheme. It is also UL Listed. Anchoring to the slab per the structural drawings is what makes that rating count in the field.
2) How much floor space do I need for an 84 inch B-Line open duct rack?
Plan on a footprint from a 19 inch wide by 84 inch deep frame standing 84 inches tall. That depth figure is unusual for an open rack, so lay out aisles and overhead cable tray around it rather than assuming a shallow two-post footprint. The frame weighs 111.67 lb bare, before equipment load.
3) Should I use an open frame rack like this or a closed cabinet for a network bay?
An open duct rack such as the SB5871084TG leaves all four sides accessible, which is what telco and network bays want for dense cross-connect and cable management, and it dissipates heat without fans. Go to an enclosed cabinet instead when you need physical security, dust control, or door-mounted airflow. This frame has no doors or side panels.
4) What is the top channel style on this B-Line rack for?
Top channel construction puts a formed steel channel across the top of the frame, which stiffens the uprights and gives you a structural member to land overhead ladder rack, runway, or a cable trough on. If your design brings cabling in from above, that is the style you want.
5) What gauge steel is the B-Line SB5871084TG rack made from?
14 gauge steel to ASTM A569, finished in Telco gray powder coat. That gauge and the A569 hot-rolled sheet spec are what let the frame carry a full 45U of equipment without the uprights deflecting, and the powder coat holds up in an unconditioned MDF or equipment room.
6) Will this rack match the Telco gray racks already in my equipment room?
The finish is Telco gray powder coat, the standard gray used across telecom equipment racks and bays, so it lines up visually with existing B-Line Eaton series frames and most other telco-gray racks in the room.
