Rittal DK 19-Inch Cable Management Panel 1U with 5 Steel Rings, Horizontal Patch Cable Routing, Sheet Steel, Light Grey RAL 7035

The Rittal 7257200 is a 1U 19-inch cable management panel with five zinc-plated steel cable rings, 482.6 mm wide in light grey RAL 7035, for routing patch cables horizontally between patch panels and switches in network cabinets.

Placed between a patch panel and a switch, the panel collects the patch cords in its rings and guides them to the side of the cabinet instead of letting them hang across the front of the equipment. That keeps port labels readable, lets you trace a cable from port to port, and stops the weight of dozens of cords pulling on the connectors. The panel is spray-finished sheet steel and the rings are 55 mm deep and 43 mm high.

• 1 x Rittal DK 19-inch cable management panel, 1U, with 5 steel rings, RAL 7035

• One panel per 24-port patch panel and switch pair is the usual layout for tidy patching.
• Five rings spread across the width hold cords from all ports and guide them to the sides.
• Rings are 55 mm deep and 43 mm high, enough for a full bundle of patch cords.
• Cleaner front, faster fault-finding and less strain on RJ45 connectors.

• Vertical cable management along the side of the cabinet — this is a horizontal 1U panel.
• Screws and cage nuts: not listed in the scope of supply.
• Cable pass-through to the rear of the cabinet: the rings guide cords sideways; for pass-through use a brush panel.
• Colour matching in black cabinets — order 5502205 instead.
