How to install Middle Atlantic 2" Width, 13 Space, 1/8" Thick w/ Tie Posts
- Step 1: Identify the location along the rack where cable bundles will benefit most from organized routing. Ensure there is clear access for tying and trimming; plan the placement before cutting or fastening.
- Step 2: If needed, measure the available space and cut the lacer strip to the desired length using appropriate metal-cutting tools. A clean, straight cut promotes neat mounting and prevents sharp edges from snagging cables.
- Step 3: Align the lacer strip with the rackrail brackets. Position it so that the tie posts (on LACE-OWP or LACE-OP variants) are accessible for inserting pre-wrapped bundles and guiding ties or Velcro.
- Step 4: Secure the lacer strip to the rack rails using the mounting method compatible with your enclosure (bolts, screws, or other fasteners appropriate for your rack system). Ensure a secure, vertical orientation with no wobble to maintain bundle integrity over time.
- Step 5: Thread pre-wrapped bundles onto the tie posts as needed. Use cable ties or up to 3/4" wide Velcro to secure bundles, then trim any excess fastener tails for a clean finish. Re-check clearances around fans, vents, and neighboring cables to preserve airflow.
