B-LINE SB864812D078SL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I mount a vertical PDU inside this B-Line cable manager?
Yes, the SB864812D078SL is configured for direct PDU mounting, so a vertical rack PDU attaches straight to the manager channel rather than eating rack units in the frame. Depth is 17.875 inches, so confirm your PDU body clears that envelope once cable is dressed behind it.
2) Does the SB864812D078SL come with the gates and mounting hardware, or do I order those separately?
The required number of gates and the mounting hardware are included with the SB864812D078SL, so the manager arrives ready to attach to the rack upright. Nothing else in the kit needs to be specified for the gates themselves.
3) Is the SB864812D078SL cable manager single or double sided?
Double sided. The SB864812D078SL is an RCM rack mounted double sided vertical cable manager with a cover, so it routes and hides cable on both the front and rear faces of the rack upright, which is what you want on a two-post open frame rack where patch panels face forward and switch cabling drops to the rear.
4) What is the difference between a low density and high density plastic gate cable manager?
The SB864812D078SL uses low density plastic gates. Gate style controls how much bundle the fingers will hold back and how tightly cable is retained. Low density suits racks with moderate, changing cable counts, which is the use case this manager is built for (varying cable requirements). If you are running a full high-count copper patch field with heavy bundles, a high density gate configuration is the better fit.
5) Is this B-Line cable manager UL listed for a data center or institutional install?
UL is the certification carried on the SB864812D078SL, which is typically what a facilities or MRO spec calls for on rack-mounted cable management in a telecom or data room build.
6) Will the silver finish on this cable manager match my existing black racks?
No. The SB864812D078SL is finished in silver powder coat with black plastic components, so it will not match an all-black rack lineup. If you are standardizing a room on black frames, order the black finish version of the manager instead; if your existing B-Line open frame racks are aluminum/silver, this one matches.
7) How heavy is the B-Line SB864812D078SL and is it a one-person install?
It weighs 35.5 lb and stands 72.625 inches tall in aluminum. That is manageable weight, but the length makes it awkward to hold plumb against an upright alone, so plan on two people to set it and start the mounting hardware.
8) What is the exact part number for the 12 inch wide silver B-Line double sided vertical manager with PDU mounting?
SB864812D078SL is the Eaton B-Line part number: 72.625 inch height, 17.875 inch depth, 12 inch width, aluminum, double sided RCM vertical cable manager with cover, direct PDU mounting, low density plastic gate, silver powder coat.
