Product Information
Full details
The Rittal DK 7159.035 is a professional-grade horizontal cable management solution designed for IT administrators and network technicians who need to organize high-density cabling within 19-inch server racks. This 1U panel utilizes five durable polyamide shunting rings to streamline patch cable routing, significantly improving rack airflow and accessibility. While it offers excellent structural integrity for cable support, users should note that its fixed 1U design requires a pre-planned rack space allocation before installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the DK 7159.035 is straightforward. Ensure the unit is aligned with your rack’s 19-inch mounting rails and secure it using appropriate cage nuts and rack screws. It is recommended to perform the cabling from the bottom up to ensure you do not block access to lower components during the process. For care, keep the unit clear of debris or dust accumulation. Since the rings are made of polyamide, avoid using harsh industrial solvents for cleaning; a damp cloth is sufficient to wipe down the surface. Periodically inspect the rings to ensure that no sharp bends have occurred in the patch cables due to over-stuffing the organizers.
