Many IT professionals who manage network equipment in
seismic regions rely on Chatsworth Products’ (CPI) seismic-rated racks and
cabinets to store and protect their equipment. They know that CPI’s products
have passed the most stringent seismic tests
with industry-leading seismic load ratings.
To best support and manage equipment, CPI’s SeismicFrame® Two-Post
Rack is designed with a variety of features and accessories that provide a
complete solution that allows for easy installation and management of equipment
and cabling.
The rack itself supports up to 1,000 lb (453.6 kg) of either
19” or 23” wide equipment with two pairs of mounting rails that can be spaced
6” (150 mm) or 3” (80 mm) apart. The rails are available with either threaded
or square-punched holes and are also marked and numbered for speedy
installation.
The Vertical Cable Section accessory is designed
specifically to manage cabling for the Seismic Frame Rack. The manager provides
a double-sided, front and rear cable pathway with large cable pass-through
ports located on the back of each manager that align with the ports in the side
of the frame. Spin-open plastic latches secure cables inside the managers. Each
manager includes one Single-Sided Cable Management Fingers Kit to organize
cables by rack unit.
The Top-Mount Cable Waterfall Tray, which attaches to the
top of the Seismic Frame Rack, guides patch cords and jumper cables
side-to-side or rack-to-rack. The tray is 6”W x 5.2”D (152 mm x 132 mm) with
adjustable radius bends that align with the tops of side-mounted vertical cable
managers.
To further reduce installation time, the rack ships fully assembled and includes a Two Mounting Hole Ground
Terminal Block for bonding to the Telecommunications Grounding Busbar.
A Floor Drilling Template is also available to help you
quickly and easily locate and drill holes for Seismic Frame Two-Post Rack floor
anchors.
