CPI Vertical Cable Managers Provide Reliable Cat 6a and Fiber Support

August 27, 2015

Vertical cable managers are a key component of a basic IT equipment support solution. Selecting the best option depends on many factors including the type and amount of cable being managed, whether two or more racks will be bayed together, the amount of floor space available and much more.

Chatsworth Products (CPI) provides a comprehensive line of vertical managers (cabling sections) to complement two- and four-post open rack systems. Cabling sections can be single- or double-sided. Double-sided cabling sections are used alongside racks that support patch panels, fiber enclosures or a mix of active equipment and cable termination hardware to provide separate front and rear pathways for patch cords and premise cables. 

CPI Cable Management:

  • Provides critical Cat 6a and fiber support
  • Meets ANSI/TIA/EIA installation guidelines for Cat 6a cabling and fiber
  • Provides proper bend radii, ensuring maximum quality of data transmission
  • Meets high-density cabling requirements
