B-LINE SB61712004TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much does the SB61712004TG universal distribution frame weigh, and what does that mean for wall mounting?
It weighs 185.7 lb bare, before any terminal blocks, cross connect wire, or jumpers go on it. Because it is a wall mount frame rather than a floor standing one, that load plus the wiring has to be carried by the structure, so it needs to land on solid backing, steel studs with proper blocking, masonry anchors, or a plywood backboard rated for the load. The frame itself is steel.
2) Does the SB61712004TG frame come with terminal blocks or 66/110 blocks included?
No. The SB61712004TG is the frame only, a steel wall mount structure with 4 verticals and 14 shelves that supports terminal blocks. Blocks, jumper wire, rings, and mounting anchors are separate line items, so budget them into the same order if you are building a cross connect field from scratch.
3) Is the B-Line SB61712004TG a floor mounted rack or does it hang on the wall?
Wall mount. The SB61712004TG hangs off the wall rather than standing on the floor, which keeps the floor clear under the cross connect field but puts all 185.7 lb of frame plus the block and jumper load into the wall structure. If your room cannot take that, a floor standing distribution frame is the way to go instead.
4) What is an Eaton B-Line universal distribution frame used for?
It is the support structure for terminal blocks at a central cross connect, the main or intermediate distribution frame where incoming cable pairs terminate and get jumpered to house cable. The SB61712004TG configuration gives you 4 verticals with 14 shelves, so the block field is organized in columns and horizontal rows for jumper routing. It holds the blocks, it is not the blocks themselves.
5) What does the 4 vertical, 14 shelf configuration on the SB61712004TG actually give me?
Four vertical uprights split the 110 inch run into block columns, and 14 shelves stack the block positions vertically across the 120 inch height. That is a large capacity field intended for a main cross connect, not a small closet. If your termination count is lower, a frame with fewer verticals or shelves is the right size; ordering this one for a small IDF wastes wall.
6) How do I confirm I am ordering the right B-Line distribution frame part number?
The manufacturer part number is SB61712004TG from Eaton's B-Line series. That single number defines the whole configuration, universal distribution frame, wall mount, 4 vertical with 14 shelves. Adjacent B-Line frame part numbers change the vertical count or shelf count, so quote the full string including the TG suffix when you specify it on a submittal.
