BLACK CAT CAT5 PATCH PANELS
3.3 Rackmounting the Cable Management Bar (Optional)
If you like, you can also rackmount the Cable Management
Bar, an optional companion piece to the Black Cat CAT5
Patch Panel. (The Bar holds hardwired cables in place, in
groups of as many as eight cables.)
Hold the Bar so that the “eyes” of its mounting hooks
are positioned over mounting holes in the side rails of
your rack above or below those you used to mount the
Panel itself.
If the rack’s mounting holes are not threaded, or are
pre-threaded for screws with a diameter of 10/32", you
can use the two screws and washers that we include with
the Bar to mount the Bar on the rack. (If the rack is pre-
threaded for screws of a different width, you will have to
use your own screws to mount the Bar.)
Place the washers on the screws, push them through
the eyes of the Bar’s mounting hooks, and push or screw
them through the rack’s mounting holes. (If your rack is
not pre-threaded, you will need “cage nuts” or “spring
nuts” of the appropriate width—10/32" for the screws we
provide—to secure these screws from the other side of
the rack. If your rack
is
pre-threaded, you could use
regular nuts to secure the screws, but they will probably
stay in place without requiring nuts.)
