B-Line SB86286S072EW Eaton series open frame racks, 67.375" height, 2" length, 2.625" width, Aluminum, RCM rack mounted vertical cable manager single sided, Direct pdu mounting, Low density plastic gate, Eaton white powder coat

The SB86286S072EW is a 67.375 inch tall vertical cable manager, which covers roughly 38 rack units of mounting height. On a 45U frame it will run most, but not all, of the usable height, so plan the top or bottom gap around your horizontal managers and patch fields. It mounts directly to the PDU mounting position on the rack rather than to the front rails.

Single sided. The RCM rack mounted vertical cable manager in this configuration manages cable on one face of the rack only. If you need cable retained on both the front and rear of an open frame, you either order two of them or specify a double sided manager instead.

It uses the direct PDU mounting position, so it occupies the same zero-U side channel a vertical power strip would use. On a rack where you also need a vertical PDU on that side, plan for the other side or a different mounting point before ordering.

It's a slim channel: 2.625 inches wide and 2 inches deep, 67.375 inches tall. That footprint is meant for low density bundles, not for a fully loaded high count copper field, so if you are dressing hundreds of patch cords you want a wider manager. In a tight hot aisle the 2 inch depth keeps it inside the normal rack envelope.

Cable is retained behind a low density plastic gate, and the body has a pass through opening so you can route jumpers from the manager into the rack at any point along its run instead of only at the ends. The gate arrangement means you drop cable in from the side rather than threading it through a closed ring.

UL is the certification carried on the SB86286S072EW. For facility spec packages where cable management hardware has to be listed, that is the credential to cite on this part.

Both. The RCM manager is intended for routing cabling on and between racks, so it works as the vertical path where a row of open frames is ganged together and cross-connects have to travel from one bay to the next.

The finish is Eaton white powder coat over aluminum, the same white used across the B-Line rack line, with black plastic components for the gates. If your existing frames are black, this piece will read as a contrast rather than a match.
