Overview
Siemon's Vertical Patching Channel (VPC) sets a new standard for cable management systems by improving appearance, accessibility and cable routing on both the front and rear of the rack. Designed as a stand-alone manager to be mounted between adjacent racks the VPC features a full length, hinged door on the front to conceal patch cord routing. The rear manager is open for ready routing of large bundles of horizontal/backbone cabling. With its easy access design, high capacity and professional appearance, the VPC is ideal for both installers and end users alike.
- Cable Access Holes allow cables to route easily between the front and rear of the channel
- Available in standard 152mm (6 in.) version or new high capacity 304mm (12 in.) version
- With an easy turn of a single knob, the full-length cover hinges in either direction to provide access to the entire vertical channel
- Mounting holes on side of VPC provides compatibility with common 76mm and 152mm (3 in. and 6 in.) industry racking systems including Siemon's RS-07 and XLBET frames as well as Siemon's extended depth RS rack system*
- Optional quarter-turn cable managers can be mounted within vertical channels for additional management such as segregation of application specific cords
Benefits
- Hinged Managers


- Rear channel retainers can be hinged in either direction and are removable enabling relocation to any position along the rear vertical channel
- Side Stackable


- The VPC is fully side stackable for use in ultra high density environments. The doors can be individually opened 60° or adjacent doors can be manually opened for full access
- High Capacity


- All of the cable routing points on the vertical channels are rounded to allow patch cords to seamlessly enter and exit the managers without risk of cable deformation
