B-LINE SB5778108TG – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How many rack units does the B-Line SB5778108TG hold, and how tall is it?
The SB5778108TG stands 108 inches tall and gives you 75 mounting spaces of usable rail. That is a 9-foot frame, so check your ceiling height, cable tray clearance and any overhead ladder rack before you order. In a room with a standard 8-foot drop ceiling it will not stand up.
2) What thread do the rack rails use on this Eaton B-Line network bay rack?
The rails are punched with 12-24 panel mounting holes, so equipment mounts with 12-24 screws and cage nuts are not used. If your switches and patch panels are speced for M6 square-hole rails, this frame is not a match for them without an adapter.
3) Is this B-Line rack rated for a seismic Zone 4 installation?
Yes. The SB5778108TG is built as a Seismic Zone 4 network bay closed duct rack, which is the requirement that governs data rooms in California and other high seismic areas. It is also UL Listed. Anchoring to the slab and top bracing still have to follow the project's structural drawings.
4) What is the footprint of the SB5778108TG rack for floor planning?
Width is 23 inches and the listed length/depth figure is 108 inches; height is 108 inches. Frame weight alone is 130 pounds before any equipment goes in, so plan your floor loading and aisle clearances with equipment weight on top of that.
5) Should I use an open frame rack like this or a fully enclosed cabinet?
An open frame two-post style bay like the SB5778108TG is what you want in a secured telecom room where you need access to cabling from all sides and you are not filtering air or locking down individual equipment. If the room is shared, public, or dusty, or you need locking doors and directed airflow, buy an enclosed cabinet instead. This frame has no doors or side panels.
6) What does the top channel style mean on this B-Line rack?
Top channel construction means the frame is finished with a channel across the top of the uprights, which is the surface you use to tie the bay into overhead ladder rack, cable runway or seismic bracing. On a 108 inch Zone 4 bay that top connection is part of how the rack gets restrained, so budget for the bracing hardware separately.
7) What finish and material is the Eaton B-Line SB5778108TG, and will it match existing telco racks?
Steel with a Telco gray powder coat, which is the standard shade used across central office and telecom equipment bays, so it lines up visually with existing telco-gray frames and ladder rack in the same room.
