Assembly Instructions
Assemble units as described herein only. To do otherwise
may result in instability. All screws, nuts and bolts must be
tightened securely and must be checked periodically after
assembly. Failure to assemble properly, or to secure parts
may result in assembly failure and personal injury.
Data Cabling In The Base
Raceway
Data cabling can be laid below
the rigid wireway in the base
raceway. An optional steel septum
is available to provide separation
between the power and data. The
base raceway with rigid wireway
can hold 24, 0.20 diameter, four
pair, UTP data cables per side
for a total of 48. Without a rigid
wireway, the base raceway can
hold 48 on each side for a total
of 96.
1. To install the septum, position
it between the vertical posts
underneath the rigid wireway
with the small bent tabs facing
downward. The septum is slid up
flush underneath the rigid
wireway and held in place by the
supplied self-drilling and tapping
screws (Figure 46).
2. Lay the cables in the raceway as
required (Figure 47). Using one
hand, close the raceway door and
it will snap into place.
Vertical Data Cabling
Any data cabling laid into a
horizontal rail or trough, can
be routed to another height by
running cabling vertically.
1. Run data cabling vertically
through the notch in the end of a
horizontal rail. Use a horizontal
rail cable guard to enforce
a 1” minimum bend radius
(Figure 48).
Note: Horizontal rails can be
added and removed with the
cables in place (unless both
notches of a horizontal rail are
completely filled with cables).
At least 24, 0.20 diameter, four
pair UTP data cables can be
routed through each notch of a
horizontal rail. Twenty-four cables
represents approximately 50% fill
capacity of each notch.
Note: Filling both notches of the
rail beyond 50% capacity can
“trap” the horizontal rail in place,
making it difficult to reconfigure
a panel without disturbing the
cables.
