1RU VERSI-DUCT Horizontal Designer Cover 49265-DC1
[pdf] [/pdf]
The Versi-Duct Horizontal Cable Management System uses slotted ducts to route cable. The ducts come with concealing covers and bend radius compliant routers. An assortment of compatible cable management accessories is available. They mount onto a standard 19-inch equipment rack.
About:
Cable management system shall mount horizontally to a standard 19-inch equipment rack. The system shall be designed with slotted duct configuration for copper and fiber cabling systems. It shall be cULus listed and compliant with ANSI/TIA 568 standards.
Common Applications:
• Data Centers: They are widely utilized in data centers to manage the cables connecting servers, switches, storage devices, and other equipment, ensuring that airflow isn’t compromised and that cables can be easily traced and accessed.
•Telecom Closets or IDF Rooms: In environments where network equipment connects different parts of a building or campus, these horizontal cable management systems keep cables from becoming tangled and allow for easier maintenance and changes.
• Server Rooms: In smaller setups or on-premises locations, these management systems help keep server cables organized and protected.
• Network Racks: For racks holding switches, routers, and patch panels, such management systems help guide and protect the many cables coming in and out.
• Audio/Visual Racks: In professional AV setups, like theaters, studios, or conference rooms, where equipment is rack-mounted, these systems can organize and protect the cables connecting various devices.
Features:
Space Efficiency:Being 1RU means it occupies only 1.75 inches of vertical rack space, making it efficient for tight spaces while providing cable organization.
Aesthetic Design:The “designer cover” implies an aesthetic focus, meaning the cover might be designed to give a clean, neat appearance when the cables are concealed.
Easy Access:Many cable management systems have removable or hinged covers that allow for easy access to the cables without needing to remove the entire unit from the rack.
Sturdy Construction:Typically made of durable materials, such as high-strength plastic or metal, to withstand the weight of cables and ensure longevity.
Cable Protection: Smoothed or rounded edges to prevent damage or wear to the cables over time.
Standards:
EIA-310: Established by the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA), this standard defines the specifications for racks, panels, and the associated equipment. It provides the specifications for the width, height, hole arrangement, and more for rack-mounted equipment. A 1RU product should be designed to fit this standard in terms of height (1.75 inches or 44.45 mm) and mounting points.
ANSI/TIA-568: Set by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA), this standard covers the requirements for structured cabling, which would influence how a cable management system is designed to accommodate and guide different types of cables.
ANSI/TIA-942: This standard provides guidance on overall data center design, including recommendations for cable management.
Specification:
• Mounting: PVC rated UL 94V-0
• Color: Grey
Construction:
A Vertical Manager Ring, often a part of vertical cable management systems in racks and enclosures, is designed to guide, organize, and manage cables vertically. Its construction is typically designed to be durable while providing ease of use for cable routing. it’s essential to consider the specific needs of the installation, including the type and quantity of cables, ease of access, and future scalability.
