FAQs

What is the primary purpose of a brush plate?

A brush plate's primary purpose is to provide a neat and organized entry/exit point for cables in a server rack or data cabinet, while also helping to reduce dust ingress.

How do I install the kenable 011977?

The brush plate mounts into a standard 19-inch rack using standard rack screws. It occupies 2U of vertical space. Ensure you have the necessary screws and rack mounting points available.

What are the dimensions of the cable opening?

The letterbox-shaped hole measures 77mm in height and 370mm in width.

Can this product help with heat dissipation?

Yes, by organizing cables and preventing them from obstructing airflow, it indirectly helps maintain better cooling within the rack.

Is this brush plate suitable for network cables and power cords?

Yes, it is designed to accommodate various types of cables, including network patch cables and power cords, common in server racks.

What material is the brush plate made from?

It is constructed from mild steel with a matt black powder finish.

Does it come with mounting screws?

Typically, mounting screws are not included and need to be sourced separately based on your rack system's requirements.

Troubleshooting

Brush plate does not fit rack.

Ensure you are using a standard 19-inch rack. Verify that the rack has sufficient space for the 2U profile. Check if the mounting holes align with standard rack unit spacing.

Cables are difficult to route through the brush opening.

Loosen the cables slightly before routing. Ensure the cables are not excessively thick or numerous for the letterbox opening. The brushes may require a gentle push to allow cables through.

Brushes appear damaged or are shedding.

Inspect the brushes for wear and tear. If damaged, consider replacing the brush strip if possible, or the entire unit if replacement parts are not available.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

It typically mounts using standard rack screws (not included) into the front or rear of the rack posts. Ensure the rack is empty or that power is disconnected from equipment before installation.

Compatibility: Compatible with all standard 19-inch rack systems. The 2U profile means it will occupy two rack units of vertical space. The hole dimensions are 77mm x 370mm.

Care: To maintain performance, periodically check the brush seal for damage or excessive dust buildup. Clean the steel frame with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the powder coating.
