B-LINE SB596S23106ATG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How many rack units does the B-Line SB596S23106ATG shelf take up?
The SB596S23106ATG needs four mounting spaces in the rack, so plan on 4 rack units of front rail height for it. The shelf itself is 6 inches high, so allow for that clearance above whatever you set on it.
2) Will this B-Line shelf fit a standard 19 inch open frame rack?
Yes. The SB596S23106ATG measures 23.31 inches across, which covers the mounting flanges on each side of a standard 19 inch EIA rack opening, and it ships with #12-24 mounting hardware, which is the thread B-Line and most telecom open frame racks are tapped for. Depth into the rack is 20 inches.
3) Do I need to buy mounting screws separately for this Eaton B-Line shelf?
No. The shelf ships with its #12-24 mounting hardware. Confirm your rack rails are tapped #12-24 and not 10-32 or square hole; if they are square hole, you will need cage nuts in the correct thread, which are not part of this package.
4) Is a solid shelf or a vented shelf better for network gear?
A solid shelf like the SB596S23106ATG gives you a flat continuous surface, which is what you want for gear with feet, small enclosures, or anything you do not want falling through. If you are stacking equipment that pulls cooling air through the bottom of its case, a vented or perforated shelf is the better choice. This one is solid heavy duty aluminum.
5) Will a 20 inch deep shelf stick out past the rear of my two post rack?
Shelf depth is 20 inches. On a typical open frame two post rack the rails sit near the middle of the footprint, so a 20 inch shelf will overhang front and rear. Measure your aisle clearance and your front to rear rail spacing before ordering, because the double sided design means the rear rail has to land within that 20 inches.
6) Will the telco gray finish match my existing Eaton B-Line open frame racks?
It is finished in telco gray powder coat, the standard color across the Eaton B-Line open frame rack line, so it reads the same as the racks and accessories already in a telecom room. Base metal is aluminum under the powder coat.
7) How heavy is this rack shelf to install by hand?
The shelf weighs 5.2 lb, so one person can hold it in position and start the screws without help. Aluminum construction is what keeps it light relative to its 200 lb rating.
