B-Line SB704193930FB Eaton series open frame racks, Aluminum uprights and steel extension brackets, Flat black powder coat finish, #12-24 panel mounting holes, Wall-mounted network equipment rack. Heavy duty, 19" Panel mount

Plan for a footprint about 20.5 inches wide and 39.5 inches high on the wall, with 30 inches of projection out from the wall face. That 30 inch depth is the number people miss: in a corridor or closet you need clear swing room in front of it for cable service, and the frame is open on all sides so equipment is accessible from front and rear.

Anchor it to structure. The rack itself weighs 16.2 lb, but wall-mounted open frame racks carry switches, patch panels and cable weight cantilevered 30 inches off the wall, so the load and the leverage both land on the fasteners. Fix the steel extension brackets into studs, plywood backing, or masonry anchors. Drywall anchors alone are not appropriate. Wall anchors are not supplied with the rack.

An open frame wall rack like the SB704193930FB suits a telecom closet or MDF where floor space is tight and the gear is light network equipment: patch panels, a switch or two, cable management. It keeps everything off the floor and open for airflow and cable access. Go to a floor-standing four-post frame or an enclosed cabinet when you are loading servers, UPS units, or anything deep and heavy, or when you need lockable security. Open frame gives no physical access control.

No cage nuts. The panel mounting holes are tapped #12-24, so you thread screws straight into the upright. Order #12-24 rack screws in the quantity your panels need, since fasteners for your equipment are a separate item. If your existing spares are 10-32, they will not thread here.

Both. The uprights that your equipment bolts into are aluminum, and the extension brackets that tie the frame back to the wall are steel. Everything is finished in flat black powder coat, which is the usual choice in a data closet where the rack sits in a finished space.

It matches on the two things that matter for standardizing: 19 inch panel mount spacing and #12-24 tapped holes, which is the common thread pitch on North American telecom racks. Finish is flat black powder coat, so it visually matches black racks and cabinets already installed. What differs from a floor rack is mounting: this one hangs off the wall on steel extension brackets.

Order Eaton B-Line SB704193930FB. That is the manufacturer part number for the heavy duty 19 inch wall-mounted open frame rack in flat black, and it is a single configuration, so there are no finish or size options to specify.
