Figure 5-4: Cable Management Trough

These cable mangement troughs come in 1U or 2U models for mounting on EIA

posts and in 54mm or 108mm width by 40mm, 60mm or 80mm length fi ngers or

cover-over models for mounting on side mounted vertical mounting plates (that are

either 70mm or 130mm wide).

The cable management troughs that mount on EIA posts are secured with cage nuts

and panel screws for mounting on the back EIA posts of the rack. Cable troughs for

side mounting are attached to vertical mounting plates or on rack extensions, and

are mounted by using pegs or slots on the cable trough (see Figure 5-5).
