B-Line SB86483D072SL Eaton series open frame racks, 67.375" height, 17.875" length, 3.625" width, Aluminum, RCM rack mounted double sided vertical cable manager cover, Direct pdu mounting, Low density plastic gate, Silver powder coat

Double sided. It is an RCM rack mounted double sided vertical cable manager cover, so it dresses cable on both the front and rear faces of the rack from one mounted assembly. That is what you want on a two-post open frame rack where patching runs up the front and switch or server cabling drops down the back.

Yes, plan on specifying the required number of gates and the mounting hardware as part of the order. The SB86483D072SL is the cover portion of the RCM double sided manager, and the gate count is what you set based on how you want cable broken out along the 67.375 inch height. Get the gate quantity settled before the install date, because a cover without gates will not hold a bundle.

Direct PDU mounting is the stated mounting method for the SB86483D072SL, so the vertical manager is built to accept a zero-U PDU in the channel rather than forcing you to give up rack units for a rack mount PDU. Confirm your PDU's mounting pattern against the channel before you commit a whole row to it.

Low density is the gate style on the SB86483D072SL, meaning the gate spacing and fill are set for lighter cable volume, the kind of load you get on a network rack with patch cords and a modest number of runs rather than a fully loaded fiber or high count copper plant. If you are dressing hundreds of runs through a single bay, a higher density gate arrangement is the better match. The gates themselves are black plastic components against the silver powder coated frame.

At 67.375 inches of managed height, the SB86483D072SL covers the working portion of a standard 7 foot (84 inch) open frame rack but does not run the full frame height, so expect bare rail above and below the manager. If you need managed cable dressing all the way to the top of an 84 inch frame, specify a taller vertical manager section instead.

17.875 lb is the stated product weight. A single person can handle it on a ladder, but two sets of hands make the vertical alignment against the rack rail faster on a 67.375 inch run.

Order it as Eaton B-Line SB86483D072SL. That designation covers the silver powder coat aluminum RCM double sided vertical cable manager cover in the 67.375 by 17.875 by 3.625 inch size with the low density plastic gate style.
