B-LINE SB5876108UTG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread do the mounting rails on the SB5876108UTG use, 10-32 or 12-24?
12-24 panel mounting holes. Gear supplied with 10-32 screws won't thread in, so order 12-24 rack screws and washers, or use cage nuts sized for the equipment you're mounting.
2) Is this B-Line rack rated for use in a Seismic Zone 4 building?
Yes. The SB5876108UTG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay open duct rack in 11 gauge steel, and it is UL Listed. Seismic rating depends on the anchorage being installed as designed, so the floor anchors and any top bracing to structure need to follow the engineered detail for the installation.
3) What floor space do I need to lay out for a B-Line SB5876108UTG network bay?
Frame footprint is 23 inches wide with a 108 inch length/depth dimension, and it stands 108 inches tall. Lay out aisle clearance on top of that for cabling and access at both front and rear, since an open frame rack is worked from both sides.
4) How much does this 108 inch open frame rack weigh, and can one person set it?
132.62 lb empty. That is a two-person lift to stand up and walk into place, and it is the number to use when you're figuring floor loading before you add equipment weight.
5) 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 top of the bay to bolt to, which is where you land overhead ladder rack or cable runway and where you gang bays together into a continuous row. It is also the tie point for top bracing in a seismic installation.
6) Should I use an open frame rack like this or a fully enclosed cabinet?
An open duct rack such as the SB5876108UTG suits a secured telecom or MDF room where you want unrestricted access to both sides, easy cable management and no airflow restriction. Go to an enclosed cabinet instead when you need physical security in a shared or public space, dust control, or lockable doors for compliance. The open frame also gives you more workable panel space per footprint, 58 mounting spaces here.
7) Does the SB5876108UTG come with vertical cable managers or mounting hardware?
What's described is the open frame itself, an 11 gauge steel bay with 12-24 tapped rails and a top channel. Plan on ordering vertical cable management, 12-24 rack screws, grounding kit and floor anchors as separate line items so the bay is complete when the crew shows up.
8) Will the finish on the SB5876108UTG match the other racks in my telecom room?
Telco gray powder coat over steel, which is the standard gray used across most central office and MDF rack lines. If the existing bays in the room are telco gray, this will read as a match; if they are black, it won't.
