B-LINE SB61710809TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How heavy is the SB61710809TG frame, and does that affect how I mount it?
It weighs 378.676 lb as a steel assembly, before any terminal blocks, cable, or protector panels go on it. At that weight a wall mount has to land on structure, not drywall anchors: masonry, or plywood backboard fastened through to studs or blocking. Plan on more than one person and mechanical lift for a 108 in tall unit.
2) What is a universal distribution frame like this actually used for?
It is the support structure for terminal blocks at a central cross connect, the point where outside or riser cable is terminated and jumpered to station wiring. The frame itself holds the hardware; the blocks, jumper rings, and protectors are separate items you specify to suit the cross connect count.
3) How many shelves and verticals does the SB61710809TG have?
Seven verticals with 12 shelves, wall mounted. That vertical-and-shelf count is what sets your usable block-mounting positions, so size the frame against the number of pairs you are terminating rather than the footprint alone.
4) Should I use a wall mount distribution frame or a free standing one?
The SB61710809TG is a wall mount frame, so it transfers its load into the building wall and needs a solid backboard or masonry behind it. If your telecom room has no continuous 108 in of sound wall, or you need access from both sides of the cross connect field, a floor mounted frame is the better route. Wall mount keeps floor space clear, which is usually the deciding factor in small closets.
5) What is the exact part number to order for the Eaton B-Line 7 vertical 12 shelf distribution frame?
Order Eaton B-Line part number SB61710809TG. It is the manufacturer part number for the universal wall mount distribution frame with 7 verticals and 12 shelves.
6) Is the SB61710809TG frame steel or aluminum?
Steel. That is the load-bearing choice for a frame carrying 12 shelves of terminal blocks and the cable weight that comes with them, and it means the mounting surface behind it has to be rated for the load.
