Cable management panel EFB Elektronik 699981.1 Grey Metal 482.6mm

The EFB Elektronik 699981.1 grey metal cable management panel is a compact rack accessory designed to organize and support network, power and patch cables in 19-inch server cabinets and network racks. With a width of 482.6 mm, depth of 110 mm and height of 44.5 mm (1U), the panel provides a rigid metal structure that helps route and group cables neatly while protecting connections from strain and accidental disconnection.

Advantages

The metal construction offers mechanical strength and heat resistance suited to data center and industrial environments. Its 1U height and standard 19-inch compatible width allow simple installation in most racks. The shallow depth makes the panel suitable for both deep and space-limited racks, while the neutral grey finish integrates with typical rack colours and reduces visual clutter.

Suitable for

• Organizing patch cables in network and server racks
• Routing power and network cables to reduce strain on connectors
• Space-constrained rack installations where shallow depth is required
• Professional IT rooms, telecommunications closets and small data centers

How to use

Mount the panel into a standard 19-inch rack at the desired U position using appropriate rack screws or cage nuts. Route cables through or along the panel openings and secure bundles with cable ties or Velcro straps as needed to maintain separation between patch and power runs. Position heavier cables closer to rack posts and keep a gentle bend radius to avoid stress on connectors. Ensure the panel is firmly fastened before applying cable loads.

Recommendations

Use the panel in combination with labelled cable ties and horizontal or vertical managers to maintain clear identification and serviceable cable paths. Regularly inspect for loose fasteners and redistribute cable weight if connector strain is observed.
