B-LINE SB862810D072EW – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the B-Line SB862810D072EW a rack itself, or a cable manager that bolts onto a rack?
It is a rack mounted vertical cable manager, double sided, from the Eaton B-Line open frame rack family. It does not stand on its own as an equipment rack; it mounts to the side of an open frame rack to carry cable vertically up the bay. Vertical cabling sections are included with it.
2) How much horizontal space do I need beside my open frame rack for the SB862810D072EW vertical manager?
Plan on 2.625 inches of width, with a 2 inch depth dimension. That is a narrow-profile manager, so it fits tight bay spacing in a row of open frame racks, but it is sized for lower density cable bundles rather than heavy trunk runs.
3) Will this vertical cable manager match the height of my 7 foot open frame rack?
The manager stands 67.375 inches tall, so it covers most but not all of a nominal 7 foot (84 inch) rack upright. Measure the usable mounting height on your frame before ordering; if you need full-height coverage on a 7 foot rack you need a taller manager section.
4) Is this cable manager suitable for a high density fiber or Cat6 trunk bay?
No. It is specified for routing lower density cabling, with a low density plastic gate style and a 2.625 inch width. For a high density bay running large copper trunks or heavy fiber bundles, step up to a wider, deeper vertical manager with higher capacity fingers and a rigid door.
5) Can I mount a vertical PDU in this Eaton B-Line manager?
Yes, the mounting method is direct PDU mounting, so a vertical power strip can be attached within the manager channel instead of eating rack units in the frame. That is how most integrators get power and data up the same bay on an open frame rack.
6) Is this cable manager UL listed for an institutional or government spec job?
UL is the certification carried on the Eaton B-Line SB862810D072EW. If your submittal calls out a UL recognized cable management component for the telecom room, this one satisfies that line.
7) Does the double sided design mean it manages cable on both front and rear of the rack?
Yes. Double sided means the manager routes and retains cable on two faces, so patching in front and equipment cords at the rear both stay inside the same vertical channel. The plastic gates open on the sides being used, and it comes with the vertical cabling sections needed to build out the run.
8) What is the SB862810D072EW made of, and will the white finish hold up in a data room?
The body is aluminum with an Eaton white powder coat, and the gate and finger components are plastic. Powder coated aluminum keeps the weight down (20.6 lb) while resisting scuffing from cable pulls, and the white finish is the one to order when the rest of the room is white rather than black.
9) Can one person handle installing this vertical manager, or is it a two man lift?
At 20.6 lb and 67.375 inches tall, the weight is a one-person carry, but the length makes it awkward to hold plumb against the rack upright while starting fasteners. Most installers set it on the floor line, start the top and bottom fasteners, then work the middle.
