B-LINE SB596S23156STG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much rack space does the B-Line SB596S23156STG shelf take up?
Four mounting spaces (4U) are required for the SB596S23156STG. The shelf itself is 6 inches high, so plan on four full rack unit positions being consumed when you lay out gear on an open frame rack.
2) Will this B-Line shelf fit a standard 19 inch open frame relay rack?
Yes. The SB596S23156STG is an Eaton B-Line series rack mounted shelf measuring 23.31 inches wide, which covers the rack rails and flanges on standard open frame racks, with a 30 inch depth front to back.
3) What does double sided mean on this rack shelf, and do I need a two-post or four-post rack?
Double sided means the shelf mounts to rails on both the front and rear of an open frame rack rather than cantilevering off the front only. At 30 inches deep it spans the full rack depth, so you need front and rear mounting points, not a single pair of posts.
4) Does the B-Line SB596S23156STG come with mounting screws?
It ships with the shelf and #12-24 mounting hardware. If your rack rails are tapped 10-32 rather than 12-24, the supplied screws won't thread and you'll need to source matching fasteners.
5) Is this a solid shelf or a vented one?
Solid. The SB596S23156STG is a heavy duty solid steel shelf, so there is no perforation for airflow through the deck. For equipment that pulls cooling air vertically, a vented shelf is the better choice.
6) What finish is on this Eaton B-Line rack shelf, and will it match my existing racks?
Telco gray powder coat over steel, which is the standard color used across Eaton B-Line open frame relay racks and accessories, so it matches typical telco gray rack frames in a communications room.
7) How heavy is the SB596S23156STG shelf itself?
20.8 lb bare. That matters twice: one person can hang it, but the weight comes off your rack's load allowance before you set any equipment on it.
