B-LINE SB5772138TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line SB5772138TG rack fit a standard 19 inch rack-mount patch panel or switch?
Yes. The SB5772138TG is a 19 inch wide open frame rack, so standard 19 inch EIA rack-mount equipment, patch panels and switches mount to it. The rails are punched with 12-24 panel mounting holes, which is the thread most telco and network gear ships with, so you screw directly into the rail without adding cage nuts.
2) Is this B-Line open frame rack rated for a seismic zone 4 installation?
Yes. The SB5772138TG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay open duct rack, which is the frame you specify for the highest seismic design category on a telecom or data room job. It is also UL Listed.
3) What does the top channel style on this Eaton B-Line rack do for me?
The top channel gives you a structural member across the head of the frame to land cable runway, ladder rack and overhead bracing on. On a Seismic Zone 4 open duct bay this top connection is how the frame ties into the overhead support system, so it matters as much as the floor anchorage.
4) Is this an enclosed cabinet or an open rack, and does it come with side panels or a door?
It is an open frame rack, not an enclosure. There are no side panels, no doors and no top, which is what keeps airflow and cable access unrestricted in a network bay. If you need a lockable enclosure for physical security, an open frame is the wrong product type.
5) Do I need cage nuts or adapters for equipment on the SB5772138TG rails?
No cage nuts. The rails come punched with tapped 12-24 panel mounting holes, so you fasten gear with 12-24 rack screws straight into the rail. If your equipment shipped with 10-32 hardware or square hole cage nuts, you will need 12-24 screws instead.
6) What finish and material is the B-Line SB5772138TG, and will it match existing telco racks in my room?
Steel with a telco gray powder coat, the standard color used across central office and telecom equipment bays, so it lines up visually with existing telco gray frames and runway. Powder coated steel also holds up in an unconditioned equipment room better than a painted finish.
