Vertiv VR Rack Accessory VRA6033 Roof Panel for Edge-to-Edge Cable Management

The Vertiv VR Rack Accessory VRA6033 is a purpose-built networking roof panel designed to transform how you manage cables within Vertiv VR racks. This 600 x 1100 mm roof panel replaces the existing roof, delivering edge-to-edge cable management that keeps cables neatly organized, simplifies maintenance, and supports more efficient airflow in demanding data center environments. Built for reliability and ease of installation, the VRA6033 is an essential upgrade for administrators seeking cleaner cable runs, improved access, and a tidier, more professional rack appearance. By consolidating cabling into a single, dedicated roof panel, you can reduce downtime during service, streamline patching, and optimize space inside your enclosure without compromising rack integrity or future scalability.

• Edge-to-edge cable management: The VRA6033 provides a full-width routing path from front to back, enabling orderly, continuous cabling. This design minimizes cable entanglement, reduces the risk of accidental disconnections during maintenance, and supports higher port density by preventing bundles from blocking heat vents or access bays. With an unobstructed cable run, technicians can perform patching and reconfiguration quickly and with fewer errors, improving overall data center uptime.
• Includes brush strips for cleaner interfaces: Integrated brush strips seal the roof interface and help manage intrusion from dust and debris. This feature preserves the internal cleanliness of the rack, reduces particulate contamination on critical components, and aids in maintaining stable thermal conditions by preventing stray cables from creating unintended air gaps or hotspots around the enclosure.
• Flexible airflow options with optional accessories: The roof panel can be paired with a fan kit and exhaust duct to tailor airflow within the enclosure. When configured with airflow accessories, you can direct cool air to hot zones, optimize return paths, and support higher-density equipment deployments. This flexibility makes the VRA6033 an ideal companion for cooling-intensive applications, yet it remains compatible with standard ventilation practices for simpler installations.
• Durable, rack-ready construction: Designed to align precisely with Vertiv VR racks, the VRA6033 delivers a secure, vibration-resistant fit that maintains a clean, professional appearance. The robust build withstands routine rack maintenance, cable grading, and rearrangements, while preserving the structural integrity of the cabinet and ensuring long-term reliability in data centers, edge locations, and telecom facilities.
• Compact, precise footprint for versatile deployments: With a footprint of 600 mm x 1100 mm, this roof panel is tailored for Vertiv VR rack systems and fits neatly within the cabinet ceiling interface. The size supports edge-to-edge cabling strategies across diverse environments and works well with other Vertiv accessories to maintain a cohesive, scalable rack solution as network demands evolve.

How to install Vertiv VR Rack Accessory VRA6033

• Power down and disconnect any active equipment in the rack to ensure safe handling of cables during installation.
• Remove the existing roof panel from the Vertiv VR rack following standard maintenance procedures for your cabinet model.
• Align the VRA6033 roof panel with the rack’s mounting points, ensuring that the edge-to-edge cable channels align with the front and rear cable routes for uninterrupted access.
• Secure the roof panel in place using the rack’s standard mounting hardware, tightening screws evenly to avoid introducing warping or misalignment.
• Install the brush strips as provided to seal the interface and support clean cable ingress and egress. If you plan to optimize airflow, attach the optional fan kit and exhaust duct according to the manufacturer’s guidance, ensuring ducts are properly sealed and directed toward the desired exhaust path.
• Re-route cables into the edge-to-edge channels, verify that cables are not pinched or stressed, and test all connections to confirm successful reassembly and proper operation of the rack.
• Power up the equipment, monitor for any thermal imbalances, and perform a final cable management check to ensure neat routing and easy future maintenance.
