12100-116

The 12100-116 Cable Runway Drop Cross Member, identified by the drop-116 designation, provides a sturdy support point for cable runway systems. Its engineered geometry preserves the minimum bend radius required for high‑speed data and fiber optic cables. By mounting directly to the runway cross member, the component simplifies routing within dense enclosure environments. Maintaining the correct bend radius reduces signal loss and extends the service life of Category 5e, Category 6, Category 6a, and fiber cabling. The drop‑116 cross member distributes cable stress evenly, preventing micro‑bends that can degrade performance. This reliability is essential for hyperscale, enterprise and edge data center deployments. Designed for the en 12100 cable runway platform, the component integrates seamlessly with CPI's modular enclosure families. Its gray‑finished steel construction matches the aesthetic of standard CPI enclosures while delivering corrosion‑resistant durability. The solution supports both copper and fiber pathways, enabling flexible infrastructure planning. Installation requires only a few fasteners and aligns with CPI's standard hardware kit, allowing rapid deployment without specialized tools. The drop 116 design ensures that cables follow the prescribed radius, eliminating the need for additional bend‑radius sleeves. This streamlined process accelerates build schedules and reduces labor costs. CPI backs the drop‑116 cross member with global distributor coverage and rapid product customization to meet project‑specific requirements. Engineers can rely on CPI's extensive experience in thermal, power and cable management to optimize enclosure performance. The result is a robust, future‑ready infrastructure component that safeguards critical network investments.
